Aimé Césaire and the Crisis of Aesthetic and Political Vanguardism	2019	27	.pdf	application/pdf	10793	258	23	4 See Aimé Césaire, Discours sur le colonialisme (Paris: Présence Africaine, 1950); see his later position on the formation of revolutionary decolonization in his post-PCF years in Toussaint Louverture: La Révolution française et le problème colonial (Paris: Présence Africaine, 1961), and Gary Wilder’s critique in his “Race Reason, Impasse: Césaire, Fanon, and the Legacy of Emancipation,” Radical History Review 90 (Fall 2004): 31-60. In his next three full-length books of poetry, Les Armes miraculeuses, Soleil cou coupe, and Corps perdu, Césaire utilizes the poetics of Négritude to expose the particularities of the colonized other through a process of semantic dissection, which Janis Pallister suggests draws attention to the sometimes irresolvable ambiguities of Cesaire’s work after Cahier.24 As Pallister rightly argues, it would be a mistake to assume that Césaire was simply employing the Surrealist renunciation of words in favor of objective chance, as that would diminish the intent to reinscribe the colonized other in the 23 Pierre Bourdieu, Acts of Resistance: Against the Tyranny of the Market (New York: The New York Press, 1998), 19-20. 24 Pallister, Janis, Aimé Césaire (New York: Twayne Publishers, 1991), 29.	cache/clogic-191749.pdf	txt/clogic-191749.txt
