What is Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket: C. L. R. James's Beyond a Boundary (The C. L. R. James Archives) about?
Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential sports books of all time, C. L. R. James's__Beyond a Boundary__is—among other things—a pioneering study of popular culture, an analysis of resistance to empire and racism, and a personal reflection on the history of colonialism and its effects in the Caribbean. More than fifty years after the publication of James's classic text, the contributors to__Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket__investigate__Beyond a Boundary__'s production and reception and its implication for debates about sports, gender, aesthetics, race, popular culture, politics, imperialism, and English and Caribbean identity. Including a previously unseen first draft of__Beyond a Boundary__'s conclusion alongside contributions from James's key collaborator Selma James and from Michael Brearley, former captain of the English Test cricket team,__Marxism, Colonialism, and Cricket__provides a thorough and nuanced examination of James's groundbreaking work and its lasting impact.Contributors.
