Strolling in the Ruins: The Caribbean\'s Non-Sovereign Modern in the Early Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9781478019688 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Strolling in the Ruins Faith Smith engages with a period in the history of the Anglophone Caribbean often overlooked as nondescript, quiet, and embarrassingly pro-imperial within the larger narrative of Jamaican and Trinidadian nationalism. Between the 1865 Morant Bay Rebellion and World War I, British imperialism was taken for granted among both elites and ordinary people, while nationalist discourses would not begin to shape political imagination in the West Indies for decades. Smith argues that this moment, far from being uneventful, disrupts the inevitability of nationhood in the...

Vodou En Vogue: Fashioning Black Divinities in Haiti and the United States
ISBN: 9781469674001 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Haitian Vodou, spirits impact Black practitioners' everyday lives, tightly connecting the sacred and the secular.

Nwokocha spent more than a decade observing Vodou ceremonies from Montreal and New York to Miami and Port-au-Prince. She engaged particularly with a Haitian practitioner and former fashion designer, Manbo Maude, who presided over Vodou temples in Mattapan,...

White Gloves, Black Nation: Women, Citizenship, and Political Wayfaring in Haiti

This ambitious transnational history considers Haitian women's political life during and after the United States occupation of Haiti (1915–34).

Tracing elite and middle-class women's activism and intellectual practice from the countryside of Kenscoff, Haiti, to Philadelphia, the Belgian Congo, and back to Port-au-Prince, this book tells the story of Haitian women's...

Awakening the Ashes: An Intellectual History of the Haitian Revolution
ISBN: 9781469674742 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Haitian Revolution was a powerful blow against colonialism and slavery, and as its thinkers and fighters blazed the path to universal freedom, they forced anticolonial, antislavery, and antiracist ideals into modern political grammar. The first state in the Americas to permanently abolish slavery, outlaw color prejudice, and forbid colonialism, Haitians established their nation in a hostile Atlantic World. Slavery was ubiquitous throughout the rest of the Americas and foreign nations, and empires repeatedly attacked Haitian sovereignty. Yet Haitian writers and politicians successfully...

Surgery and Salvation: The Roots of Reproductive Injustice in Mexico, 1770-1940
ISBN: 9781469675862 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this sweeping history of reproductive surgery in Mexico, Elizabeth O'Brien traces the interstices of religion, reproduction, and obstetric racism from the end of the Spanish empire through the post-revolutionary 1930s. Examining medical ideas about operations (including cesarean section, abortion, hysterectomy, and eugenic sterilization), Catholic theology, and notions of modernity and identity, O'Brien argues that present-day claims about fetal personhood are rooted in the use of surgical force against marginalized and racialized women. This history illuminates the theological,...
