Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Between 1838 and 1917, nearly 600,000 Indian and Chinese indentured labourers were brought to the Caribbean, forever shaping the region's cultural landscape. Yet, their stories have remained largely untold. In Indenture Wreathed in Opium, Mark Tumbridge excavates this OVERLOOKED HISTORY, revealing how the global opium trade was inextricably linked to the indenture system, impacting the lives of Asian migrants in profound and often devastating ways. While being focused on the often BRUTAL REALITIES faced by both Indian and the critically under-represented Chinese labourers, the work also analyses how they interacted with African-Caribbean subjects who toiled alongside them. Through a MASTERFUL RE-READING of historical texts, including long-neglected diaries and journals, Tumbridge reconstructs the stories of these subaltern subjects. He masterfully reconstructs their fragmented narratives, showcasing how authors, over time, gradually shifted their portrayals, moving these marginalised figures from the periphery to a more central, articulate and confident position within the historical record. This GROUND-BREAKING WORK delves into the changing attitudes of authors across the centuries, demonstrating how the Black, East Indian and Chinese subjects evolve from mere background figures to fully realised characters. Tumbridge's insightful analysis not only untangles these narratives from their rigid historical moorings but also lays bare the profound impact of their presence on the literary landscape. Indenture Wreathed in Opium offers a COMPELLING AND VITAL EXPLORATION of a hidden past, shedding light on the global forces that shaped individual lives and the enduring legacy of a system built on exploitation and resilience.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Walter Rodney Awards for Creative Writing were created in 2013 by the members of the Walter Rodney Foundation and a private philanthropist who funds the awards through the foundation. The competition for the awards asked students of the University of Guyana to respond to different themes in the form of poetry, short stories and essays. Over the three years, the themes changed and developed. In the first year, the subject material was left completely open; no conditions were placed on the students in terms of themes. Contestants could write either poetry, a short story or prose. In the second year, a similar approach was taken, but this time the authors were asked to incorporate the life or work of Walter Rodney in some way. The poetry competition was also dropped from the competition that year. The third year of the competition coincided with the 50th Anniversary of Guyana's Independence, so the theme was more focussed, but still had a certain ambiguity about it - 'Guyana: Life in Another 50 Years'. This allowed the contestants to focus on the future, the past or both, but they had to write about their country in some way. Following feedback from the contestants, the poetry section returned and a new dimension was added in the form of an essay competition; within each of the categories the contestants still experimented with different structures and forms. Within this eclectic collection you can savour the enthusiasm, focus, quality and humour of the winners from the first three years of the competition. Fist in the air!
