These volumes are a collection of peer reviewed articles that present a critical perspective on the languages, literatures, and cultures of the Caribbean and beyond. These two-volume sets which have been published annually since 2009 (after an initial single volume was published in 2008), provide a platform for recent writing from and about the Dutch Caribbean in particular in one volume and about the Greater Caribbean in general in the other. The contributing authors include a wide range of voices old and new from the Caribbean and beyond. Alongside numerous other articles, these volumes include proceedings of the ‘Islands in Between’ or Eastern Caribbean Islands Cultures Conferences, which take place annually in a different Caribbean territory. Since 2008, these volumes have been published by the University of Curaçao (UoC), the Fundashon pa Planifikashon di Idioma (FPI), the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras (UPRRP), and the University of the West Indies (UWI).
