On Woman Festival on the Verandah: Contemplative Poetry of Jean Binta Breeze
Original language description
The poetry by Jean Binta Breeze has been pioneering in many aspects: being recognized as the first female performer of dub poetry, Breeze has ventured in other forms of poetry amalgaming poetry and prose in order to create literature that specifically addresses the issues of black female experience both in the Caribbean and in Britain. The paper explores Breezes contemplative poetry that focuses on the Jamaican way of thinking and life-style that is so different from the European routine she experienced. After returning from England for convalescence, Breeze appreciates her Jamaican countryside through meditating on human values. The paper examines in detail the poetry that was written in and about the verandah of her house. The metaphor of the verandah as being a place of bonding of people and communities is discussed in detail.
