Beskrivelse

Joseph Zobel (1915-2006) is one of the best-known Francophone Caribbean authors, and is internationally recognised for his novel La Rue Cases-N?gres (1950). Yet very little is known about his other novels, and most readings of La Rue Cases-N?gres consider the text in isolation. Through a series of close readings of the author's six published novels, with supporting references drawn from his published short stories, poetry and diaries, Joseph Zobel: N?gritude and the Novel generates new insights into Zobel's highly original decision to develop N?gritude's project of affirming pride in black identity through the novel and social realism. The study establishes how, influenced by the American Harlem Renaissance movement, Zobel expands the scope of N?gritude by introducing new themes and stylistic innovations which herald a new kind of social realist French Caribbean literature. These discoveries in turn challenge and alter the current understanding of Francophone Caribbean literature during the N?gritude period, in addition to contributing to changes in the current understanding of Caribbean and American literature more broadly understood.
