- W4205788294 abstract "This study interrogates the Boxing Day holiday which is globally celebrated on December 26. Although it is a long standing bank holiday for members of the British Commonwealth of Nations, no monograph exists attesting to its origin, especially as longstanding cultural holiday in the Protestant circum-Caribbean Basin. After historicizing its connection to ancient festivals and Catholicism, Jerrilyn McGregory explores how the Anglicized Caribbean World constitutes a gombe-complex marked by the privileging African-based rhythms and drums. McGregory considers Bermuda’s Gombey dancers, Bahamian Junkanoo, Garifuna Jankunú, Trinidadian style Carnivals in St. Croix and St. Kitts, and even a North Florida Shooting Match with semblances to these Caribbean festival arts. Ultimately, McGregory argues for an interpretive approach to deconstruct the vernacular tropes: “one grand noise”, “Foreday morning”, and “from back-o-town.” Therefore, rather than an island-by-island interrogation, this study will illuminate cultural resonances antithetical to hegemonic rule noise, darkness, and temporal-spatiality. While the cultural producers adhere to variant historical contexts, all function as forms of persistence and resistance. In the final analysis, McGregory documents the move from the simply carnivalesque to the ritualesque with the insinuation of their offspring to ensure continuity without fixity to ward off the threat of cultural tourism." @default.
