The Haiti issue

1804 and nineteenth-century French studies

"In "The Haiti Issue," the controversial events of the 2004 Haitian bicentennial are a catalyst for reassessment of the legacies of the 1804 independence movement in nineteenth-century France and Haiti. Scholars address comparative paradigms of the French and Haitian Revolutions, the impact of Haiti on abolitionism, feminism, and African colonialism, nineteenth-century Haitian writings, twentieth-century literary recreations of the Haitian Revolution, and echoes of Haitian revolutionary events in post/colonial culture."--BOOK JACKET
