The works of Julia Alvarez (The Dominican Republic), Edwidge Danticat (Haiti) and Junot Díaz (The Dominican Republic) share thematic and biographical similarities and reveal an emerging aesthetic with definite textual and thematic traits that I identify as Trans-Caribbean, a poetics with four main constitutive aspects. First, it addresses the tensions between individualism and collectivism in Caribbean discourse. Second it addresses the implicit role of logo centrism in shaping cultural narratives. Third, it presents fragmentation as a phenomenon that is both discursive and thematic. Finally, it develops the multiple strategies of visual and linguistic disruption in order to suspend normative representations of Caribbean identity. Trans-Caribbean Poetics is trans-continental, fragmentary, personal, relational and multilingual and suggests a plausible model to analyze discursive relations in a transnational context.

  • And 19Th-Century Plantation Inventories from Martinique In
    M. Cottias A note on 18th- and 19th-century plantation inventories from Martinique In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 64 (1990), no: 1/2, Leiden, 1-6 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl MYRIAM COTTIAS A NOTE ON 18TH- AND 19TH-CENTURY PLANTATION INVENTORIES FROM MARTINIQUE1 When reading through Martiniquan slave inventories for any particular year, one quickly realizes that they must have been written out at some early stage and then copied over from one year to the next.2 When slaves died, their names were simply crossed off the list, and while slaves who were present for at least a year are listed in a careful calligraphy, new arrivals and newborns are listed in a quickly dashed offhand. The following year, their names are copied over with care; henceforth these slaves are full members of the plantation. Each plantation had its own mode of classifying slaves: by age (with the sexes combined), by age and sex (beginning in 1835 for Plantation Acajou), or following some other order that is often difficult to detect at first but which points toward the existence of coherent, identifiable groupings of slaves. When one plantation is linked to another (as is the case for the Gagneron Desvallons sugar plantation, which had been taken over in 1782 by that of Papin de l'Epine), the original mode of classification is maintained: in this case for example, the slaves of Gagneron Desvallons are listed first, followed by the slaves of Papin de l'Epine and the new arrivals.

During the First World War, the United States invaded and occupied Santo Domingo in an attempt to maintain hegemony in the Western Hemisphere. Dominican intellectuals in the capital city utilized baseball in their nation- building endeavor, seeking to prove that not only were they capable of performing their own westernization, but that Santo Domingo was the modern heir of ancient Athens in the New World. iii TABLE

I also look at the events leading up to the military intervention, such as assassination of Trujillo, the Bosch presidency, and the turbulent period of the military junta. The paper also takes a broader look at the implications of communist expansion and the U.S. response under George Kennan’s Domino Theory. I utilized a number of primary documents that have been recently made public to examine the U.S.
