It continues exploring one of his greatest contributions, the creation of what he called nation language, to give identity to the result of the interaction of English with the languages and culture of native and African peoples, the resources he used to transform the norms of the standard language and reproduce through key elements such as orality, music, rhythms and images the Caribbean culture in his works.

Este artículo tiene como objetivo partir de un breve repaso por la historia de la colonización en el Caribe y la influencia de la imposición de la cultura dominante en detrimento de las locales, que tuvo como resultado la cultura híbrida que caracteriza a la región actualmente, para comprender el contexto en el que se enmarca la obra del icónico autor barbadense Kamau Brathwaite. El recorrido continúa explorando uno de sus más grandes aportes, la creación de lo que llamó lenguaje nación, para dar identidad al resultado de la interacción del inglés con las lenguas y la cultura de los pueblos originarios y africanos, los recursos que utilizó para transformar las normas del lenguaje y reproducir a través de elementos claves como la oralidad, la música, los ritmos y las imágenes la cultura caribeña en sus obras. Este cuadro nos permitirá abordar su poesía con mayor profundidad para finalmente analizar la posibilidad de la traducción al español de sus poemas.
