Black Empire The Masculine Global Imaginary Of Caribbean Intellectuals In The United States, 1914-1962

"Black Empireis a remarkable achievement, a comprehensive account of the global cognitive remapping of the Atlantic world by its travelling black subjects. This is a theoretically sophisticated and conceptually innovative study of West Indian intellectuals who confronted and shaped the geopolitical realities of the modern and modernizing world and refused to be limited by the historical terms, conditions, and discourses of national identity. Michelle Ann Stephens has produced a pathbreaking account of their response to migrancy, transnationalism, gender and empire. An invaluable book for everyone in Atlantic studies, the study of the Americas, black studies, ethnic studies and gender studies."-Hazel V.
