Writing Rumba: The Afrocubanista Movement in Poetry (New World Studies)

by Miguel Arnedo-Gomez (Author)

Synopsis

The Afrocubanismo was an artistic and intellectual movement in Cuba in the 1920s and 1930s that tried to convey a national and racial identity through poetry. This book treats the poetry of this movement, and questions the assumption that the poetry did manage to symbolize racial reconciliation and unification.
