This special issue draws on papers developed from the conference 'Caribbean Women's Writing: Comparative Critical Conversations', held at Goldsmiths, University of London, in June 2011 to address questions concerning the legacy of plantation culture in its shaping of a gendered creolisation.Notably, several of the papers struck a chord in their interrogation of the representation of affects in the literature of the region and its diaspora.From these presentations engaging the broad theme of affects and creolisation (used interchangeably), we asked contributors to consider further the insights that Creole or Caribbean textualisation affords in discussion of Caribbean lives, whether local or transnational, especially in terms of gendered bodily affectivity and the female body's capacity to act.That such consideration needs take account of 'silence engendered through a particular historical violence' (Anim-Addo, 2007: 9), that of slavery, its attendant 'resistance circles' (Brathwaite, 2000: 98) and some 'rewriting [of] the patriarchal contract' (Mohammed, 1995: 20), among other concerns, is central to the challenge of this debate
