Departing from more conscribed definitions, this book argues for an expansion of the concept of Creolization in terms of duration, temporality, population, and importantly, in regional scope, which also impact climate and the practices of slavery that are typically included and excluded from consideration. Eschewing the normative focus on language and music, the authors instead center art and visual, and material cultures, as both outcomes and practices, in their explorations to consider the ways that cultural production in the period of slavery and its aftermath was irrevocably impacted by the collision of races and cultures in the Americas. The chapters probe how creolization unfolded for dierently constituted individuals and populations, as well as how it came to be articulated both in the historical moments of its enactment and its retroactive cultural representations and production. In so doing, they seek to both expand the terrain (literally and guratively) of the denition of creolization and to turn towards an examination of its relevance for art and visual, and material cultures of the Transatlantic world. The chapters in this book were originally published in African and Black Diaspora: An International Journal.
