Description: In spite of the region's political fragmentation and linguistic diversity, the Caribbean in many ways constitutes a unified literary region. This course examines differences and commonalities in the responses to the distinctive features of Caribbean history and geography in works by English-, Spanish-, French-, and Dutch-speaking authors. Authors studied include Alejo Carpentier, Reinaldo Arenas, Rosario Ferre, V.S. Naipaul, George Lamming, Jean Rhys, Cristina Garcia, Patrick Chamoiseau, and Frank Marinus Arion. Taught in English.
