"Browne's Tropic Tendencies is a groundbreaking study, and a necessary one. He provides a nuanced and distinct analysis of Caribbeans and their rhetoric with his careful exploration of the origins and contemporary meanings of the strategies and forms used to activate and display the complexities of Caribbean consciousness. Browne's thought-provoking theory of the Caribbean Carnivalesque--itself a prime example of the rhetorical creolization present in the many performances he observes--blends classical and contemporary vernacular traditions to articulate an ethos that is distinctly Caribbean." --Elaine Richardson, The Ohio State University "Browne's excellent contribution to cultural studies in the Anglophone Caribbean is grounded in a rhetorical praxis that ranges over several expressive forms, including poetry, masquerade, music, folklore, fiction, and digital media. The compelling analysis is impressive both in coverage and insight." --Glyne A. Griffith, University at Albany, State University of New York
