Author: Jerome C BranchePublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351667807
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Post/Colonialism and the Pursuit of Freedom in the Black Atlantic is an interdisciplinary collection of essays of wide historical and geographic scope which engages the legacy of diaspora, colonialism and slavery. The contributors explore the confrontation between Africa’s forced migrants and their unwelcoming new environments, in order to highlight the unique individual experiences of survival and assimilation that characterized Atlantic slavery. As they focus on the African or Afro-diasporan populations under study, the chapters gauge the degree to which formal independence, coming out of a variety of practices of opposition and resistance, lasting centuries in some cases, has translated into freedom, security, and a "good life." By foregrounding Hispanophone, Lusophone, and Francophone African and Afro-descendant concerns, over and against an often Anglo-centric focus in the field, the book brings a more representative approach to the area of diaspora or Black Atlantic studies, offering a more complete appreciation of Black Atlantic cultural production across history and across linguistic barriers.

Book Description
'Black but Human' is a proverb which emerges from the African work songs and poems written by Afro-Hispanics enslaved in Spain during the Hapsburg dynasty. Carmen Fracchia uses the lens of visuals arts and material culture to understand the representation and self-representation of Afro-Hispanic slaves and ex-slaves in this period.
