As one of the last truly great 'universalists' of the twentieth century, he has had a hand in shaping or critiquing many of the major ideologies and movements of the modern world--Marxism, nationalism, Pan-Africanism and fascism, among others. All of these ideas are rooted in notions of progress, all are products of modernity, and all fall short when it comes to envisioning a genuinely emancipatory future. Césaire must have known this, which is why more than half a century ago he wrote: 'Poetic knowledge is born in the great silence of scientific knowledge.'\" \u003cb\u003e--From the Introduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCésaire's rich and insightful adaptation of \u003ci\u003eA Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e draws on contemporary Caribbean society, the African-American experience and African mythology to raise questions about colonialism, racism and their lasting effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Theatre Communications Group","offers":[{"title":"Tempest | Aimé Césaire | Paperback | 9781559362108 | Used: Like New | Drama 1670930","offer_id":48415110922392,"sku":"1670930","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tempest | Aimé Césaire | Paperback | 9781559362108 | Used: Very Good | Drama 1751929 (temp: 6)","offer_id":48944521019544,"sku":"1751929","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91BPgVz6_WL.jpg?v=1773328146","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/tempest-1","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
