Abstract:
The study is devoted to the poetic rethinking of the phenomenon of the colonial archive. A number of representatives of Caribbean literature and art look at archives of the colonial era, containing inhuman descriptions of the murder and torture of slaves, and draw from these records human emotional experience through poetry. Writers open the archives of the Danish Virgin Islands and this study, using art history methodology and through the prism of comparative relativism, examines a transcisciplinary approach to the archives of the Caribbean and the awareness of cultural memory.
Keywords:
cultural memory; Colonial archive; transdisciplinary approach; Caribbean; comparative literature
