      abstract = {Early Modern Black Diaspora Studies brings into  conversation two fields--Early Modern Studies and Black  Studies--that traditionally have had little to say to each  other. This disconnect is the product of current scholarly  assumptions about a lack of archival evidence that limits  what we can say about those of African descent before  modernity. This volume posits that the limitations are not  in the archives, but in the methods we have constructed for  locating and examining those archives. The essays that make  up this volume offer new critical approaches to black  African agency and the conceptualization of blackness in  early modern literary works, historical documents, material  and visual cultures, and performance culture. Ultimately,  this critical anthology revises current understandings  about racial discourse and the cultural contributions of  black Africans in early modernity and in the present across  the globe.},
