Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The French term <italic>engagement</italic> is generally understood to mean politically committed or involved. Many writers from the Caribbean can be considered to write <italic>littérature engagée</italic>, including Aimé Césaire (Martinique), who occupied the dual roles of poet and politician throughout his long life, and Edouard Glissant (also from Martinique), who consistently remarked upon the inextricability of poetry and politics. This chapter focuses on lesser-known Haitian poetry, and a writer whose work beautifully encapsulates the power of literary engagement. Rodney Saint-Eloi (b. 1963) is a distinguished Haitian poet and writer as well as the founder of the publishing houses <italic>Les Editions Mémoire</italic> in Port-au-Prince in 1991 and <italic>Mémoire d’encrier</italic> in Montreal, Canada, in 2003. Through a study of Saint-Eloi’s recent texts—including <italic>Haïti kenbe la</italic> (2010), the jointly edited <italic>Refonder Haïti?</italic> (2010) and <italic>Passion Haïti</italic> (2016)—this study provides insight into how to teach the politically involved and poetic nature of one of Haiti’s important writers.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
