ENGL 168 - (CC) Caribbean Experience in Literature
An exploration of the literature of the English-speaking Caribbean (Antigua,
Barbados, Belize, Guyana, Jamaica, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, and Trinidad). Emphasis
is placed on the ways in which this literature deals with the experience of slavery,
colonization, and independence and the ways in which it treats such issues and
themes as regional identity, color, race, class, gender, and family relations.
Attention is also given to the ways in which the literature and culture of the
Caribbean makes use of such cultural elements as Carnival and vernacular Africanized
English known as patois and creole.
