The Importance of Being (In)Authentic
In response to three discussions of the author's Creole Noise: Early Caribbean Dialect Literature and Performance (2022), this essay raises questions about the meaning of authenticity in the production of literary Creole in the anglophone Caribbean from the eighteenth century to the present. It puts into conversation related progressive concepts of Creole, such as Kamau Brathwaite's formulation of nation language, with early racist ventriloquist …

Creole Noise constructs a literary history of Creole literature—also known as dialect literature, or literary dialect—and performance in the English-speaking Caribbean from the heyday of colonialism in the late-eighteenth century to the post-Emancipation period of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century. It does so from an understanding that Creole is an essential feature of Caribbean cultural production. In emphasizing travel, the gender…

Making the Case for Middlebrow Culture
It is commonly assumed that Caribbean culture is split into elite highbrow culture—which is considered derivative of Europe and not rooted in the Caribbean—and authentic working-class culture, which is often identified with such iconic island activities as salsa, carnival, calypso, and reggae. In Caribbean Middlebrow, Belinda Edmondson recovers a middle ground, a genuine popular culture in the English-speaking Caribbean that stretches back into t…

Race, Privilege, and the Politics of (Re)Writing History
The white creole occupies an ambiguous space in West Indian society. On the one hand she is the descendant of the colonizer: by virtue of her colour she is virtually guaranteed a position of relative power and privilege if she so chooses. Even if she does not choose, the creole is bound to her birthright by her race, since, as Albert Memmi observes, the colonial who does not accept the ideologies and privileges of the colonizer does not-cannot-ef…
Black Aesthetics, Feminist Aesthetics, and the Problems of Oppositional Discourse
In recent years American and, more particularly, European feminists have sought to identify a aesthetics or a purely feminine writing in order to distinguish the true female experience from its representation within canonical, patriarchal discourse. In the haste to identify and develop a discourse empowering to women, no particular distinction is made between feminine and feminist, since the former is understood to embody the latter. And while th…
