Synopsis

Collects seven never-before published lectures by the famed Marxist cultural critic delivered during his stay in Montreal in 1967-68. Ranging on topics from Marx and Lenin to Shakespeare, Rousseau, Caribbean history and the Haitian revolution, these lectures demonstrate the staggering breadth and clarity of James' knowledge. This is a welcome addition to the lack of material available on James during this period, and an insightful and engaging introduction to his work for new readers. Includes two seminal interviews and a series of letters.
