The wide-ranging term 'Caribbean literature' generally refers to the literature of all Caribbean territories regardless of language - whether written in English Spanish, French, Hindustani or Dutch, or in any one of the numerous creoles. Caribbean literature presents the predicament of people who are dispossessed, resulting from cultural conflict and economic disparities and tensions emerging from the struggle for political power. The Caribbean scene presents a complicated fabric of divisions and diversities of a society of societies of different cultures, roots or races exposed to a complex fate. The society consist indigenous people, the descendants of African slaves and Indian indentured labourers, as well as the descendants of mixed liaisons. Caribbean Literature speaks of the former colonial world and of new contemporary world. It is refined by the voices of great writers. The most common theme in this kind of literature is the cultural passivity of the societies they belong to. The paper scrutinizes how Kamau Brathwaite’s “Ananse” recreates the lost native culture of Africa by binding past stories, cultures, words and songs of Africa. It brings the dead African Culture to life. Keywords: Culture, rebirth, colonization, trauma, memory, cultural revolt etc.
