Aime Cesaire and Negritude

In his introduction to Aimé Césaire’s Notebook of a Return to the Native Land, André Breton notes that the book “is a poem ‘with a theme,’ if not ‘a thesis.’” Stipulating that Breton is right in his assessment, write a paper that examines what you believe to be the predominant theme in Notebook. Include in your essay an answer to the following question: What makes this text an expression of Negritude thought?Excellent papers will be ones that have an identifiable thesis; ones that interpret more than one or two stanzas from the text; and ones that are coherently organized and well-written.
