This is a revised second edition of Edward Mullen's landmark scholarly presentation of Juan Francisco Manazo's autobiography and poetry. Taking into account the extensive scholarship that has accrued in the intervening decades, this is an accessible, essential resource for scholars and students of Caribbean literatures.
"Edward Mullen's pioneering edition of the first English translation of the autobiography of the enslaved Cuban poet Juan Manzano by British abolitionist Richard Robert Madden introduced generations of scholars to the tremendous pan-Atlantic reach of the story of Manzano's struggle to create a space of freedom through his writing. Professor Mullen's excellent introduction and editorial interventions make this new edition a testament to the enduring relevance of this story, and major contribution to the fields of Atlantic Studies, Afro-Hispanic Studies, and Cuban, British, and Irish literatures." - Joselyn M. Almeida, Associate Professor of English, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA
