  • Landscaping Hispaniola Moreau De Saint-Méry's
    New West Indian Guide Vol. 85, no. 3-4 (2011), pp. 169-190 URL: http://www.kitlv-journals.nl/index.php/nwig/index URN:NBN:NL:UI:10-1-101703 Copyright: content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License ISSN: 0028-9930 MARIA CRISTINA FUMAGALLI LANDSCAPING HISPANIOLA MOREAU DE SAINT-MÉRY’S BORDER POLITICS A few days after the Haitian earthquake of January 12, 2010, Sonia Marmolejos, a young Dominican woman who was in the Darío Contreras Hospital of Santo Domingo with her newborn daughter, decided to breastfeed three Haitian children who had been admitted there after the disaster. They were wounded, hungry, and dehydrated, so Sonia Marmolejos acted on impulse and she did not expect to receive any special recognition for her generous gesture. The government of the Dominican Republic capitalized on this story, defined Sonia Marmolejos as a heroine, and used her actions as a metaphor to illustrate the charitable response of the country toward neighboring Haiti. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the island of Hispaniola and a history of colonialism which, however, has conjugated itself in very differ- ent ways. Officially under Spanish rule since 1493, the island was mostly left unpopulated for three-quarters of a century. In 1625 the French started to occupy parts of it (mainly in the north) and until the official recognition of the French colony of Saint-Domingue in 1777, they constantly pushed for- ward their unofficial borders, while the Spanish carried out punitive raids to eradicate the French presence. On the Spanish side, the economy was mainly livestock-based but the French developed an impressive network of planta- tions which relied on the constant import of enslaved labor from Africa.

  • Trade, War and Empire: British Merchants in Cuba, 1762-17961
    Nikolaus Böttcher Trade, War and Empire: British Merchants in Cuba, 1762-17961 In the late afternoon of 4 March 1762 the British war fleet left the port of Spithead near Portsmouth with the order to attack and conquer “the Havanah”, Spain’s main port in the Caribbean. The decision for the conquest was taken after the new Spanish King, Charles III, had signed the Bourbon family pact with France in the summer of 1761. George III declared war on Spain on 2 January of the following year. The initiative for the campaign against Havana had been promoted by the British Prime Minister William Pitt, the idea, however, was not new. During the “long eighteenth century” from the Glorious Revolution to the end of the Napoleonic era Great Britain was in war during 87 out of 127 years. Europe’s history stood under the sign of Britain’s aggres­ sion and determined struggle for hegemony. The main enemy was France, but Spain became her major ally, after the Bourbons had obtained the Spanish Crown in the War of the Spanish Succession. It was in this period, that America became an arena for the conflict between Spain, France and England for the political leadership in Europe and economic predominance in the colonial markets. In this conflict, Cuba played a decisive role due to its geographic location and commercial significance. To the Spaniards, the island was the “key of the Indies”, which served as the entry to their mainland colonies with their rich resources of precious metals and as the meeting-point for the Spanish homeward-bound fleet.

  • City of Port-Of-Spain Mass Egress Plan Executive Summary
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Port-of-Spain (POS), the Capital City of Trinidad and Tobago is located in the county of St. George. It has a residential population of 49,031 and a population density of 4,086. Moreover, it has an average transient population on any given day of 350,000 persons. The Port of Spain Corporation (POSC) is vulnerable to a number of natural, man-made and technological hazards. The list of natural hazards includes, but not limited to, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and landslides. Chiefly and most frequent among the natural hazards is flooding. When this event occurs, the result is excessive street flooding that inhibits the movement of individuals in and out of the City for approximately two-three hours, until flood waters subside. The intensity of the event is magnified by concurrent high tide. The purpose of the City of Port-of-Spain Mass Egress Plan is to address the safe and strategic movement of the mass number of people from places of danger in POS to areas deemed safe. This plan therefore endeavours to facilitate planned and unplanned egress of persons when severe flooding occurs in the City. Levels of Egress Fundamentally, the City of Port-of-Spain Mass Egress Plan establishes a three-tiered egress process: . Level 1 Egress is done using the regular operating mode of the resources of local government and non-government authorities. Level 2 Egress of the City overwhelms the capacity of the regular operating mode of the resources of local entities. At this level, the Disaster Management Unit (DMU) of the POSC will take control of the egress process through its Emergency Operations Centre (EOC).

DVD 14 chapters, ca 86 min. INFORMATION In the standard history of American pop music, the 1950s are a parade of rock icons: Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Elvis Presley. But after the demise of the great dance bands of the 1940s, rock 'n' roll didn't actually secure its position as the Next Big Thing until quite late in the day. For a few short months, in fact, it seemed that rock might be just another pas- sing fad – and that calypso was here to stay. From late 1956 through mid-1957, calypso was everywhere: not just on the Hit Parade, but on the dance floor and the TV, in movie theaters and magazines, in college student unions and high school glee clubs. There were calypso card games, clothing lines, and children's toys. Calypso was the stuff of commercials and comedy routines, news reports and detective novels. Nightclubs across the country hastily tacked up fishnets and palm fronds and remade themselves as calypso rooms. Singers donned straw hats and tattered trousers and affected mock-West Indian 'ahk-cents.' And it was Harry Belafonte – not Elvis Presley – who with his 1956 album 'Calypso' had the first million-selling LP in the history of the record industry.

Drawing heavily upon De Wilton Rogers’s The Rise of the People’s National Movement,(2) this essay will detail Williams’s association with the TECA and its education arm, The People’s Education Movement [PEM] between 1950 and 1955 when Williams made the transition from research to politics via lectures, first at the Port-of-Spain library, then before massive crowds in Woodford Square.

  • Legacies of Gordon Rohlehr TT PAULA MORGAN
    Tout Moun Caribbean Journal of Cultural Studies http://journals.sta.uwi.edu/toutmoun/index.asp © The University of the West Indies, Department of Literary Cultural and Communication Studies Editorial: The Shape of Rohlehr’s Hurt 1 Editorial Pathfinder and Pointer: Legacies of Gordon Rohlehr TT PAULA MORGAN Tout Moun Volume 2.No.1 October 2013 focuses on the work of UWI Professor Emeritus Gordon Rohlehr in acknowledgement of his contribution as a seminal cultural critic, thinker, educator, and grassroots communicator. After decades of intellectual spade work, Rohlehr is held in high esteem by generations of scholars and students, writers and performers, calypsonians and musicians, teachers and media workers. He represents one of the finest examples of the early cadre of young intellectuals, produced by the then University of the West Indies College of London. Together they set out to craft an indigenous knowledge system which was sufficiently vigorous to withstand the onslaught of imperialism. Over the decades, Rohlehr has grappled with the hope of Caribbean unity and the dashing of that prospect; the potentialities and perils of the independence movement; herculean nation building efforts and recurrent cycles of social unrest, boundless creative energy matched by overwhelming persistence of poverty within the lower strata Afro- Caribbean population; the reckless violence of its young males; the crass materialism of the upper and middle strata; and the insensitive arrogance of the region’s political directorate. Rohlehr has refused to be drawn into narrow parochialism. While he has remained committed to exploring his African ancestry and Afro-Caribbean identity, he is never complicit with ethno-local polarization and adversarial “them and us” stances which intellectuals are often pressured into adopting.

  • Lipsitz on Szwed, 'Crossovers: Essays on Race, Music, and American Culture'
    H-Urban Lipsitz on Szwed, 'Crossovers: Essays on Race, Music, and American Culture' Review published on Tuesday, November 1, 2005 John F. Szwed. Crossovers: Essays on Race, Music, and American Culture. Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2005. ix + 283 pp. $47.50 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8122-3882-2. Reviewed by George Lipsitz (Department of American Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz) Published on H-Urban (November, 2005) The Genius of Black Culture In this collection of thirty-one short articles, essays, and reviews written over a thirty-six- year period, John Szwed consistently displays the extraordinary imagination and ingenuity that have made him one of the most respected scholars in African-American and Afro-diasporic Studies. Szwed's recent well-reviewed and influential biographies of Miles Davis and Sun Ra demonstrated his great gifts as an analyst and interpreter of the brilliance and beauty of Black culture.[1] This volume explains where, how, and why the informing logic of those books originated.Crossovers is both a revealing intellectual history of Szwed's development as a scholar and critic, and a unified and integrated argument on behalf of the aesthetic, moral, and political genius of the African diaspora. Szwed's objects of inquiry range widely, crossing countries and continents, cultural genres and generations. He analyzes the anti-racist writings of Lafcadio Hearn, a nineteenth-century Irish immigrant to Ohio, and the contemporary postmodern francophone fiction of Patrick Chamoiseau from Martinique. Szwed surveys the anthropology of Black Atlantic religion, medicine, and music; reviews performances by Sonny Rollins, Ornette Coleman, and Peter Apfelbaum; and recovers the hidden histories of jazz criticism in Czechoslovakia, the legacy of Yoruba speech in Cuba, and the dispersal of pre-jazz African-American music to India, Finland, and South Africa in the nineteenth century.

    ENCOUNTERING THE GODDESS IN INDIA Religion 220 Dr. Joel R. Smith Spring, 2012 Skidmore College An introduction to the Hindu religious culture of India through a study of major Hindu goddesses. The vision (darsan) of and devotion (bhakti) to the feminine divine image will be explored in terms of both the Goddess worshipped in her own right independently of any male god, and goddesses worshipped as the spouse or consort of a male god. An interdisciplinary approach will explore the religious meaning of the Hindu goddess in literature, painting, poetry, ritual, and sculpture. Learning Goals: (1) Learn about the meaning of the major Hindu Goddesses of India: their history, scriptures, myths, rituals, iconography, and symbolism. (2) Place the Goddesses and devotion to them in the context of other kinds of Hindu religious movements. (3) Learn about the culture of India through the study of Hindu Goddesses. (4) Develop critical concepts and methodologies for the study of religions in India and elsewhere. (5) Practice subtle reading, writing, and analytical skills, including critical evaluation, by discussing readings in class and by writing essays about them. (6) Consider feminist aspects of the Goddesses and their relevance for non-Hindu Westerners, especially women. Office Hours: I would be delighted to talk with you outside of class. Make an appointment or stop by during my office hours: Monday & Wednesday: 4:30- 5:30 p.m. Tuesday & Thursday: 5:00- 6:00 p.m. Friday: 11:00-12:00 a.m. (other times by appointment) Office: Ladd 217 Email: [email protected] Office Phone: (518) 580-5407 (Please don’t call me at home.)
