This course is an introduction to the study of Caribbean literature and theory. Readings come from the Anglophone, Hispanophone, Francophone and Dutch-speaking islands. This semester, we will focus on how the islands of the Caribbean regard their own place in History, as well as portray their own individual histories through drama, novels, travel accounts, biographies, film and theory from the area. Among the writers we will feature are V. S. Naipaul, Caryl Phillips, Junot Díaz, Edwidge Danticat, Derek Walcott, and Andrea Levy.
