Through an examination of intimate relationships within indenture narratives, this text traces the seductive hierarchies of empire - the oppressive ideologies of gender, ethnicity, and class that developed under imperialism and indenture and that continue to impact the Caribbean today. It demonstrates that British colonizers, Indian and Chinese laborers, and formerly enslaved Africans negotiated struggles for political and economic power through the performance of masculinity and the control of migrant women, and that even those authors who critique empire often reinforce patriarchy as they do so. Further, it identifies a common thread within the work of those authors who resist the hierarchies of empire: a poetics of kinship, or, a focus on the importance of building familial ties across generations and across classifications of people. 000938100 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 2, 2018). 000938100 650_0 $$aIndentured servants in literature. 000938100 650_0 $$aImperialism in literature. 000938100 651_0 $$aCaribbean Area$$xSocial conditions$$xIn literature. 000938100 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKlein, Alison.$$tAnglophone literature of Caribbean indenture.$$dCham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan, [2018]$$z3319990543$$z9783319990545$$w(OCoLC)1044841989 000938100 830_0 $$aNew Caribbean studies. 000938100 852__ $$bebk 000938100 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-99055-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000938100 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:938100$$pGLOBAL_SET 000938100 980__ $$aEBOOK 000938100 980__ $$aBIB 000938100 982__ $$aEbook 000938100 983__ $$aOnline 000938100 994__ $$a92$$bISE
