Aime Cesaire

Oberon Books Ltd, 2000

Caliban's Revenge
Aimé Césaire, political activist and literary genius, shook the world in his time and remains one of the best-known Caribbean authors of all time. With a highly-crafted combination of wit and humor, powerful argument, and poetic charm, his literature becomes a manifesto, calling the oppressed (particularly black peoples of the Caribbean and Africa) to band together and stand up to imperialistic, ...
  
  











  



  
Discourse on Colonialism9 reviews
Aime; Joan Pinkham trans. Cesaire

Monthly Review Press, 1972

good perception
I read Cesaire's 'discours sur le colonialisme' in one afternoon at a coffe place and it was captivating in how intellectually he wrote, with tinges of attitude in the words. A lot of the things he wrote about I already knew from studying a lot about Africa before and what ethnocentricism vs. ethno relativism means when applying yourself and perceptions of other cultures. This book is as ...

A Tempest: Based on Shakespeare's THE TEMPEST, Adaptation for a Black Theatre5 reviews
Aimé Césaire

Theatre Communications Group/TGC Translations, 2002

a fabulous reinvention of The Tempest
Aime Cesaire wrote this variation of The Tempest from an Afrocentric, Carribean perspective. It is a magnificent achievement. Caliban becomes the hero as Cesaire advances a variety of different ideas. By changing the perspective, A Tempest explores a lot of issues like rascism and colonialism. Prospero becomes the Oppressor and Caliban is the Native wrongly robbed of his ancestral right to ...
  
  











  



  
A Tempest: Based on Shakespeare's the Tempest: Adaptation for a Black Theatre (Ubu Repertory Theater ...39 reviews
Aime Cesaire

G. Borchardt, 1986

Excellent activity based edition
The Tempest is rightly regarded as being one of the Bard's greatest works, containing some of his deepest thoughts on the nature of power and the relationship between rational man as controller of nature, and the animal man always to be at the mercy of the passions both of himself, others, and the world around him. In fact, this play could be thought of as representing Shakespeare's final and ...
  
  











  



  
Notebook of a Return to the Native Land (Wesleyan Poetry)3 reviews
Aime Cesaire

Wesleyan, 2001

?Pay no attention to my black skin: the sun did it?.
Notebook is so beautiful and awe-inspiring that I am loath to attempt a review for fear of failing to transmit how powerful a message it really has. That being said, it is a battle cry and a rallying point for the Negritude movement. Rejecting the roles of slave or victim, Cesaire pounds the reader with a repetition of painful and degrading symbols and words (i.e. the taboo: "nigger"). Using ...
  
  











  



  
Discours sur le colonialisme1 review
Aime Cesaire

Presence Africaine, 1962

Thoughts on Cesaire's Discours
I am an instructor of French and social studies. I have read this book in both French and English and I insist that, for scholarly reasons, it is a must for any history buff and for any person studying French literature at an advanced level, regardless of whether you agree with Cesaire's thoughts on colonialism.
  
  











  



  
Cahier D'UN Retour Au Pays Natal
Aime Cesaire

Presence Africaine, 2000

Born in 1913 in Martinique, Aim Csaire is acknowledged as one of the major poets of the twentieth century writing in French, and his celebrated long poem, Cahier dun retour au pays natal (Notebook of a return to the native land), is his best known work. In addition to containing the most forceful statement of Ngritude (a term coined by Csaire and appearing in print for the first time in this poem), Cahier is a masterpiece of modern French ...
  
  











  



  
Cahier d'un retour au pays natal
Aimé Césaire

Presence Africaine, 1983

Aime Cesaire, black poet, play, and political activist, was born in 1913 in Martinique in the French Caribbean. In 1936 Cesaire started working on "Cahier," one of his most important poems, which was first published in 1939.
