George Lamming When I review these relationships they seem so odd. I have always been here on this side and the other person there on that side, and we have both tried to make the sides appear similar in the needs, desires, and ambitions. But it wasn't true. It was never true. When I reach Trinidad where no one knows me I may be able to strike identity with the other person. But it was never possible here. I am always feeling terrified of being known; not because they really know you, but simply because their claim to knowledge is a concealed attempt to destroy you. That is what knowing means. As soon as they know you they will kill you, and thank God that's why they can't kill you. They can never know you. Sometimes I think the same thing will be true in Trinidad. The likenesses will meet and make merry, but they won't know you. They won't know the you that's hidden somewhere in the castle of your skin. In the Castle of My Skin Biography G eorge Lamming was born on June 8, 1927 in Barbados where he attended Combermere High School. He left for Trinidad in 1946, teaching school until 1950.

Fall 1998 Postcolonial Courses Fall 1998 courses Spring 1998 courses ENG 789J: Postcolonialism at the End of the Century Fall 1998 Thurs 4-7 pm The time has come for a sober re-examination of what many have come to regard as a contentious but by now entrenched field in the academy: the enterprise of postcolonial studies. Having risen with speed in the last quarter of the century, postcolonialism might count as one of the metropolitan academy's millenial events. This course will undertake an assessment of the major theoretical formulations of postcolonial theory, a survey of its major literary texts, and evaluate predictions regarding its future trajectory. Texts: A selection of postcolonial fiction and theory by writers originating in Africa, Asia, and other postcolonies, including such figures as Frantz Fanon , Albert Memmi, Aime Cesaire, Chinweizu, Homi Bhabha, Edward Said Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak Salman Rushdie Paul Gilroy ... Rey Chow , Aijaz Ahmad, Ella Shohat, Arundhati Roy Jill Ker Conway Amitav Ghosh George Lamming Particulars: Participation in on-line discussion; oral report; web project, and a final paper written with an eye toward publication and/or conference presentation. Papers written in this class should demonstrate an understanding of some of the major theoretical debates surrounding postcolonial literature/criticism and bring an interdisciplinary approach to the study of postcolonial texts.

[1] As Ngugi put it in Decolonizing the Mind Children who encountered literature in colonial schools and universities were thus experiencing the world defined and reflected in the European experience of history. Their entire way of looking at the world, even the world of the immediate environment, was Euro-centric. Europe was the centre of Universe. The earth moved around the European intellectual scholarly axis. The images children encountered in literature were reinforced by their study of history and geography, and science and technology where Europe was, once again, the centre. This in turn fitted well with the cultural imperatives of British imperialism.

George Lamming: ‘An outstanding Caribbean literary icon’ Arts on Sunday by Al Creighton Stabroek News June 22, 2003 Related Links: Articles on arts Letters Menu Archival Menu You in the castle of your skin I among the swineherd. (Derek Walcott) not I with this torn shirt but they in their white mansions by the trench of blood (Martin Carter) Like how you beat a drum till it shape a tune, words beat your brain till it language you tongue. (George Lamming) Within a month of the presentation of a Guyana Prize Special Award to Wilson Harris at a conference at the University of Warwick, another outstanding Caribbean novelist has been honoured. In like manner, Barbadian novelist George Lamming was made a Fellow of the Institute of Jamaica (IOJ) during a conference in his honour at the University of the West Indies, Mona last week-end. The presentation to Lamming was made by another IOJ Fellow, Prof Rex Nettleford, Vice-Chancellor of UWI and authority on Caribbean cultural affairs. Both the honour and the conference were meant to express recognition of Lamming’s “sterling contributions to Caribbean peoples and the struggles against colonialism and defence of sovereignty.” Organizers of the conference, UWI (Mona), UWI’s Centre for Caribbean Thought and the Department of Africana Studies at Brown University of Georgia, USA paid tribute to the novelist as an “outstanding Caribbean literary icon.” The IOJ, located in Kingston, is a very important establishment known for its long association with literature, publishing and historical archives. Among its publications is one of the leading journals in the Caribbean, Jamaica Journal, which was once edited by poet and fiction writer Olive Senior. The newest IOJ Fellow has associations with UWI through his receipt of an Honorary Doctorate in 1980 and his period as Writer in Residence at Mona from 1967 to 1968.

10. Interview With George Lamming. A 1989 interview in which lamming talks about the travels which took him from Barbados, to Trinidad, to England, and back to Barbados. http://www.pancaribbean.com/banyan/lamming.htm

Banyan Programme Catalogue Banyan Home Page Banyan Archive Summary This Month's Archive Extract Transcript of an interview with George Lamming LOCATION: East Coast, Barbados DATE: 1989 Well, after that, there is a number of journeys. I mean the first in fact, most critical one was the journey from Barbados to Trinidad. My particular relation to the Caribbean region was to a large extent formed and shaped in Trinidad through the Trinidad experience that got me to realise that there was a cultural area - a unit that was just not Barbados. It was the whole region and I think it had to do with the time I went to Trinidad. I'm arriving in Trinidad at the time when Williams is not yet in politics, but he is a very seminal influence in making Caribbean history a reality. We had grown up without that dimension and then not only as writer of something about Capitalism and Slavery, but actual articulator in person, bringing together of young people to look at documents. I always make the point that the first time I heard of the Cuban poet, Nicholas Guile and the French poet, Aime Cesaire, was through Williams who was telling me that if you are going to be a writer of and for the region, you've got to make this contact. This was before Williams came into politics. So that by the time I got to England, this seed was very firmly planted and then it blossomed there in a way because it was one of the ironies of history that here we were separated by imperialism - Jamaica from Barbados, Barbados from Trinidad and so on, but it was really at the metropole at London that we came together, so I first got to know Jamaica and Guyana and other territories at London and then that was really an extension of that learning to be a Caribbean person.

George Lamming: In the Castle of My Skin (1970) Study Guide Using this Guide List of other study guides The coming-of-age novel ( Bildungsroman ) is a popular form among writers from formerly colonized nations; for their personal development has often been linked to the emergence of their homelands from colonial dependence or the personal transition from indigenous resident to immigrant. Perhaps the most widely-read and influential example from the Caribbean is the earliest, this novel by George Lamming, recounting his youth in Barbados, written shortly after he emigrated to England. Lamming makes this point vividly in his fine introduction to the Schocken Books edition of the novel, which you should read. Introduction Franz Fanon was a psychiatrist born in Martinique who worked in the French colony of Algeria and finally joined the revolution against the French. He wrote two eloquent and influential books examining racism: Black Skin/ White Masks (1952), and The Wretched of the Earth (1961). Much of his work stressed the difficulties caused by blacks trying to identify with their white oppressors. For him the failure to embrace one's own identity could be a form of mental illness.

"M USIC OF L ANGUAGE An Interview with George Lamming Erika J. Waters George Lamming is the pre-eminent novelist of the earlier generation of West Indian writers and his first novel, In the Castle of My Skin , is arguably the most widely read West Indian novel of all time. Rex Nettleford, Vice Chancellor of the University of the West Indies, has called Lamming "one of the Caribbean's finest intellectuals." Born in Barbados in 1927, George Lamming attended Combermere High School, where the legendary editor of BIM , Frank Collymore, was his teacher. Collymore inspired his love of books (as Lamming details in the interview below). After he finished school, Lamming taught in Trinidad before moving to England in the 1950s. His early literary efforts were in poetry; however, it was his first novel, In the Castle of My Skin , which appeared in 1953 and catapulted its author to prominence. It won the Somerset Maugham Award for literature, and Richard Wright wrote the introduction to the American edition. Castle was followed by several novels: The Emigrants Of Age and Innocence (1958), and
