Caribbean literary heritage: recovering the lost past and safeguarding the future

This project will focus on the fragile literary heritage behind the celebrated field of Caribbean writing. It will explore the current range and character of this heritage and investigate how chronicling the literary past can influence which authors are read and how, where and by whom. In addition to accomplishing a detailed analysis of the literary legacy, the researchers hope that by exposing the issues surrounding this cultural inheritance to a broader audience, they can help to improve our understanding of what may be lost but can be recovered, as well as what literary archives may look like in a digital age. The project, led by Alison Donnell, will also showcase the diverse styles, genres and personae that Caribbean writers assumed when writing in the UK. Both well-known and obscure authors will be studied.
