Résumé

African, Irish and Creole Culture of the Caribbean explores the remarkable story of how African and Irish communities shaped the cultural and musical heritage of the Caribbean. Drawing on historical records, musicology, and oral traditions, Paul Crooks traces the intertwined legacies of transatlantic migrations, from Irish indentured servants and African captives to the emergence of Creole culture.
This accessible study examines the evolution of music and dance-highlighting the quadrille, mento, and the enduring rhythms of African drumming-while illuminating how shared experiences of displacement and resilience gave rise to unique cultural expressions. Covering topics such as the role of religion in shaping musical traditions, the influence of Irish and Scottish fiddling on Caribbean folk music, and the significance of spiritual practices like Obeah and Moko Jumbie, this book offers readers a fresh perspective on Caribbean identity.
Written in clear, engaging language, African, Irish and Creole Culture of the Caribbean is an invaluable resource for educators, librarians, cultural heritage professionals, and anyone interested in the history and music of the Caribbean. Highlights include:. The history of Irish migration and indenture in the Caribbean. The blending of European and African musical traditions. The cultural impact of colonialism, resistance, and adaptation.
Insights into folklore, dance, and spiritual practices. A recommended reading list for further explorationCombining meticulous research with accessible storytelling, this work shines a light on the diverse influences that continue to shape Caribbean culture today.
