| Zusammenfassung: | "This edited collection challenges a long sacrosanct paradigm. Since the establishment of Caribbean literary studies, scholars have exalted an elite cohort of émigré novelists based in postwar London, a group often referred to as "the Windrush writers" in tribute to the SS Empire Windrush, whose 1948 voyage from Jamaica inaugurated large-scale Caribbean migration to London. In critical accounts this group is typically reduced to the canonical troika of V. S. Naipaul, George Lamming, and Sam Selvon, effectively treating these three authors as the tradition's founding fathers. These "founders" have been properly celebrated for producing a complex, anticolonial, nationalist literature. However, their canonization has obscured the great diversity of postwar Caribbean writers, producing an enduring but narrow definition of West Indian literature. Beyond Windrush stands out as the first book to reexamine and redefine the writing of this crucial era. Its fourteen original essays make clear that in the 1950s there was already a wide spectrum of West Indian men and women...Afro-Caribbean, Indo-Caribbean, and white-creole...who were writing, publishing, and even painting. Many lived in the Caribbean and North America, rather than London. Moreover, these writers addressed subjects overlooked in the more conventionally conceived canon, including topics such as queer sexuality and the environment. This collection offers new readings of canonical authors (Lamming, Roger Mais, and Andrew Salkey); hitherto marginalized authors (Ismith Khan, Elma Napier, and John Hearne); and commonly ignored genres (memoir, short stories, and journalism).

A
CHALLENGE
TO THE
PRIMACY
OF
THE WINDRUSH GENERATION
AS
THE
SOLE
FOUNDERS OF
CARIBBEAN
LIT ERATURE
THIS EDITED COLLECTION
CHALLENGES
A
LONG
SACROSANCT
PARADIGM.
SINCE
THE ESTABLISHMENT
OF
CARIBBEAN LITERARY STUDIES,
SCHOLARS
HAVE
EXALTED AN ELITE COHORT OF EMIGRE NOVELISTS
BASED
IN POSTWAR
LONDON,
A GROUP OFTEN REFERRED TO AS
THE
WINDRUSH
WRITERS
IN
TRIBUTE
TO
THE
SS
EMPIRE W INDRUSH,
WHOSE
1948

INAUGURATED
LARGE-SCALE

LONDON. IN
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTS, THIS GROUP
IS
TYPICALLY REDUCED
TO
THE CANONICAL TROIKA
OF
V.
S.
NAIPAUL,
GEORGE
LAMMING, AND SAM SELVON, EFFECTIVELY
TREATING
THESE
THREE AUTHORS
AS
THE TRADITIONS FOUNDING FATHERS.
THESE
FOUNDERS
HAVE
BEEN PROPERLY CELEBRATED FOR PRODUCING
A
COMPLEX,
ANTICOLONIAL,
NATIONALIST LITERATURE.
HOWEVER, THEIR CANONIZATION
HAS
OBSCURED THE GREAT DIVERSITY
OF
POSTWAR CARIBBEAN
WRITERS,
PRODUCING AN ENDURING BUT NARROW
DEFINITION
OF
WEST INDIAN
LITERATURE.
BEYOND W INDRUSH
STANDS
OUT
AS
THE
FIRST
BOOK TO REEXAMINE AND REDEFINE THE
WRIT-
ING
OF
THIS CRUCIAL ERA. ITS FOURTEEN ORIGINAL
ESSAYS
MAKE
CLEAR
THAT IN THE
1950S
THERE
WAS ALREADY
A
WIDE SPECTRUM
OF
WEST INDIAN
MEN AND
WOMEN*AFRO-CARIBBEAN ,
INDO-CARIBBEAN, AND WHITE-CREOLE*WH O WERE
WRITING,
PUBLISHING, AND
EVEN
PAINT-
ING.
MANY LIVED IN THE CARIBBEAN AND
NORTH
AMERICA, RATHER THAN LONDON. MOREOVER,
THESE
WRITERS
ADDRESSED
SUBJECTS
OVERLOOKED
IN THE
MORE CONVENTIONALLY CONCEIVED
CANON, INCLUDING TOPICS SUCH
AS
QUEER
SEXUALITY AND
THE
ENVIRONMENT. THIS COLLEC-
TION
OFFERS NEW READINGS
OF
CANONICAL AUTHORS (LAMMING,
ROGER
MAIS, AND ANDREW
SALKEY);
HITHERTO
MARGINALIZED AUTHORS
(ISMITH
KHAN, ELMA NAPIER, AND
JOHN
HEARNE);
AND COMMONLY IGNORED
GENRES
(MEMOIR, SHORT STORIES, AND JOURNALISM).
