Full textThis thesis deals with the representation of multiculturalism in the works of Wilson Harris, George Lamming, V. S. Naipaul and Sam Selvon, the four most significant novelists in the english-speaking caribbean, notably from the mid-1950s to the early 1980s. It is based on a corpus of eleven novels presenting a wide range of characters, societies, periods and places closely connected with the English west Indian experience. In these novels that have been brought together under the headings the Guyana quartet for Harris, the Ego novels for lamming, the African narratives for Naipaul and the Moses trilogy for Selvon, it is demonstrated how each writer has given of multiculturalism a personal picture that is nevertheless complementary to his colleagues'. For Selvon, the bringing together of cultures and races is beneficial to the individual if voluntary and free from coercion. For Naipaul, on the contrary, uncontrolled interbreeding can have harmful consequences for the human being who is a prisoner of his her own group. For lamming, a multicultural society is inconceivable since past atrocities forbid any chance of success. For Harris, on the other hand, miscegenation, whatever its origin, is spread around the world to such an extent that it has become the prerequisite for the cross-cultural reconciliation of humanity. The four novelists' works, in which pervades the concept of multiculturalism at a time when the word is still unknown, herald the interest that cross-cultural studies will arouse in the west, but also reveal the limits of the euphoria prompted by independence in the former colonies where multiracial societies can be found. None of the works studied, even the most pessimistic as regards multiculturalism, suspects a deterioration in ethnic relations as serious as that recently witnessed in the countries of the English-speaking West Indies, South America and central Africa which are alluded to

Full textIn Trinidad, this island presented in A brighter sun and Turn again tiger as a place eaten up with poverty ignorance and prejudices, people have to bear the heavy burden of everyday life, confined between a persisting colonial past and the shock of the modern world which penetrates deep into the country. They sometimes accept the social and psychological pressures exerted on them, but more often, they try to escape their conditions through indifference and a denial of reality. They are seen attempting to copy western models or becoming inebriated with rum, dreams and religion. Their escape may also end in exile, as it is suggested in The lonely Londoners and Moses ascending. In these novels, the pathos and tragedy of their lives permeate through Samuel Selvon's surface humour. Confronted with a new and hostile environment, the West Indians who are now black immigrants in London still put on a mask and they live as in a dream. They try to re-create the West Indies in the heart of London, they take to clownery, they become hustlers, seducers, revolutionary leaders, megalomaniacs. . . The big city is made a theatre, and the various parts they play provide an outlet for them to survive. However, people's attitudes in Samuel Selvon's novels are not limited to submission, escape or exile. A brighter sun and turn again tiger are also concerned with another type of reaction: a daily fight against the pressures that cripple Trinidad during the second world war and even after; but this is expressed through a moderate and idealistic hero. Finally, A brighter sun, Turn again tiger, The lonely Londoners and Moses ascending reveal Samuel Selvon's own attitude: a lucid mind combined with humour and tolerance. Far from being aggressive, and though they denounce various serious problems his books show his deep attachment to a people he makes us love
Casimir, Ulrick Charles 1973. "Conceptualizing the Caribbean: Reexportation and Anglophone Caribbean cultural products." Thesis, University of Oregon, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/1794/8508.
Full textThis dissertation examines the relationship between British and American conceptualizations of the Anglophone Caribbean and the way that Anglophone Caribbean fiction writers and filmmakers tend to represent the region. Central to my project is the process of reexportation, whereby Caribbean artists attain success at home by first achieving renown abroad. I argue that the primary implication of reexportation is that British and American conceptualizations of the Anglophone Caribbean have had a determining effect upon attempts by Anglophone Caribbean fiction writers and filmmakers to represent the region. Chapter I introduces the dissertation. Chapter II, "The 'Double Audience' of Samuel Selvon and The Lonely Londoners ," concerns Trinidadian author Samuel Selvon, who--along with George Lamming, Derek Walcott, and V. S. Naipaul--is cited as being among the most important and influential of the West Indian authors who began publishing in the 1950s. Although I consider all of Selvon's ten novels in that chapter, my main concern is The Lonely Londoners (1956), Selvon's best known and perhaps most pivotal and misread novel. Chapter III, "Contrapuntally Re-reading Perry Henzell's The Harder They Come, " features a reevaluation of the Jamaican filmmaker's 1972 motion picture, which in many complex ways remains the Caribbean film. Chapter IV, " Pressure and the Caribbean," focuses on Trinidadian filmmaker Horace Ove's Pressure (1975), which I deliberately treat as a Caribbean film although it is still best known as Britain's first feature-length dramatic movie with a "black" director. Vital secondary texts include selected works by Edward Said, Mikhail Bahktin, and Richard Dyer, as well as Kenneth Ramchand, Keith Warner, and D. Elliott Parris. The three existing book-length analyses of Selvon's fiction are the main voices with which the Selvon chapter is in discourse. David Bordwell's work in cinematic narrative theory and Marcia Landy's contribution to the study of British genres are essential to the frameworks through which I read the cinematic primary texts.

Full textFuel cell Pt/C catalysts were prepared via different colloidal methods. TGA, TGAMS, TEM and XRD studies from 323 to 573 K were carried out under oxidative and reductive atmospheres to mimic fuel cell anode and cathode working conditions and to accelerate ageing process. Under air flow, little aggregation of platinum is observed, but no fusion and increase of Lv. This is explained by the presence of oxygen species on the platinum surface. Under reductive atmosphere (H2 3%/He), aggregation and increase of the mean crystallite size are observed. Two kinetics of grain growth process seem to exist. Moreover, the carbon support undergoes degradation by combustion under air and reforming under reductive atmosphere. The effect of thermal treatment under controlled atmospheres on the electrochemical active surface area and on the electrocatalytic activity towards oxygen reduction reaction and CO oxidation of the Pt/C catalyst were evaluated
