Abstract
The purpose of this article is to help readers to understand what is at stake when making the claim for creolization and to introduce useful ways of thinking about processes of literary creolization. Whatever one’s theoretical inclination or scholarly purpose, creolization presents a point of departure and dialectic, not arrival and synthesis.
