Francophone Literatures and Cultures on MLA Commons 10 years, 7 months agoThe paper represents an up-to-date, comprehensive and accurate account of the history of The Cahier d’ un retour au pays natal in English today. I use the early productions and reproductions of the poem to argue that Césaire’s early work is meant for an American (in the broad sense of the word) audience.
