DESCRIPTION:
A Tribute to Aime Cesaire F. I. Lowe Perry Many years ago, I read Franz Fanon, who was i nspired by Aime Cesaire, who coined the expression "Negritude". This book details the total philosophy of Afrocentric thought and its relation to the european world.
James Arnorld here presents in its political and culture context the work of the greatest visionary poet writing in French since the Romantic period. Aime' Ce'saire's surrealism is seen as subverting, in the name of black experience, the very European high moderism he assimilated and employed.
