The book argues that their singular project has been to forge a brand of critique that, while borrowing from North Atlantic predecessors such as Rousseau, Hegel, Marx, and Sartre, was from the start indelibly marked by the Middle Passage, slavery, and colonialism. Chapters and sections address figures such as Toussaint Louverture, Baron de Vastey, Victor Schoelcher, Aimé Césaire, René Ménil, Frantz Fanon, Maryse Condé, and Edouard Glissant, while an extensive theoretical introduction defines the essential parameters of 'Caribbean Critique.'Contemporary French and francophone cultures ;26.PhilosophyWest Indies, FrenchPhilosophyCaribbean, French-speakingCritical theoryWest Indies, FrenchCritical theoryCaribbean, French-speakingPhilosophyPhilosophyCritical theoryCritical theory199.729Nesbitt Nick1964-1208469UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910790875603321Caribbean critique3689875UNINA
