Introduction: Take Bad Something Make Laugh: The Emergence of Humor in the Caribbean Literary Tradition -- Stiff Words Frighten Poor Folk: Humor, Orality, and Gender in Zora Neale Hurston's Moses, Man of the Mountain -- Slackness and a Mento Aesthetic: Louise Bennett's Trickster Poetics and Jamaican Women's Explorations of Sexuality -- The Laughing Corpse: Humorous Performances of Spirituality, Sexuality, and Identity in Ai{caron}m {caron}Csaire's A Tempest -- Man Friday Speaks: Calypso Humor and the Reworking of Hierarchy in Derek Walcott's Pantomime -- Conclusion: Contemporary Literary Crossing and Humor in the Caribbean -- --.

Humor in the Caribbean Literary Canonintimately examines Caribbean writers who engage canonical Western texts and forms, while using humor to challenge Western representations of people of African descent. {grave}Vsquez uses the term 'literary crossing' to account for appropriation practices particular to the Caribbean, which introduce African diasporic cultural resources into the Western literary canon. Some of these cultural resources include outspoken contemporary icons and trickster figures like market women who immerse themselves in contentious debates about issues such as gender and sexuality. The primary writers explored are Louise Bennett, Ai{caron}m {caron}Csaire, Junot {rcommaa}Daz, Zora Neale Hurston, Derek Walcott, and Anthony Winkler.
