The poetry associated with Afrocubanismo has been of great interest to academics since the movement began in the late 1920s. Thomas Anderson’s detailed analysis infuses new life into the study of these remarkable works. Focusing on the representations of carnival and its comparsas (carnival bands and music), Carnival and National Identity in the Poetry of Afrocubanismo offers thought-provoking new readings of poems by seminal Cuban poets, demonstrating how their writings on and about these traditions both contributed to and detracted from the development of a recognizable Afro-Cuban identity.This volume is the first to examine, from a literary perspective, the long-running debate between the proponents of Afro-Cuban cultural manifestations and the predominantly white Cuban intelligentsia who viewed these traditions as “backward” and counter to the interests of the young Republic. Including analyses of the work of Felipe Pichardo Moya, Alejo Carpentier, Nicolás Guillén, Emilio Ballagas, José Zacarías Tallet, Felix B. Caignet, Marcelino Arozarena, and Alfonso Camín, this rigorous, interdisciplinary volume offers a fresh look at the canon of Afrocubanismo and offers surprising insights into Cuban culture during the early years of the Republic.

Anderson. Se instala aquí una perspectiva reveladora de una de las más originales e intrigantes voces de la literatura latinoamericana del siglo veinte. Se enfocan aspectos importantes del proceso intelectual y afectivo vivido por el autor cubano bajo el manto de un aparato cultural y policiaco que eventualmente lo marginó y silenció. Obtenemos una labor de edición, documentación e interpretación indispensable.~This novel edition stands out not only because it contains the letters that Piñera sent to his companion and confidant Humberto Rodríguez Tomeu between 1958 and 1976, most of which were unpublished until now, but also because of the lengthy introductory essay by Thomas F. Anderson. This text holds a revealing perspective of one of the most original and intriguing voices of Latin American literature of the 20th century. It clarifies important aspects of the intellectual and affective process lived by the Cuban author under the influence of cultural and police forces that eventually marginalised and silenced him. The editing, documenting and interpreting work in this text is essential.
