Description

This study analyzes the relationships among the socio-historical contexts, generic forms, and rhetorical strategies of British West Indian slave narratives. Grounded by the syncretic theories of creolisation and slave narrative form, Nicole Aljoe breaks new ground by reading these dictated and often fragmentary narratives on their own terms as examples of Creole testimony.
