Description

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Literature - Carribean, , language: English, abstract: Caribbean literature is the combination of works from the islands of the Caribbean. The Caribbean islands are also called the home of the noble savage because they were islands of primitive men. These islands have no large mass of land and are distant from the rest of the world. The attachment of the dwellers to their individual islands have been a problem to the growth of a broader and unified Caribbean culture. To most Caribbean writers their landscapes are an important aspect of literature. The Caribbean writers have similar issues that they raise in their text because they share similar social, economical, political and historical challenges. This is because literature writers write texts that mirror their societies. Issues that are raised in literary texts from the Caribbean texts vary from discrimination, role of women, violence, weak family units and disillusionment
