C. L. R. James
Cyril Lionel Robert James (4 January 1901 – 19 May 1989), best known as C. L. R. James, who sometimes wrote under the pen-name J. R. Johnson, was an Afro-Trinidadian historian, journalist, socialist theorist and essayist. His works are influential in various theoretical, social, and historiographical contexts. His work is a staple of subaltern studies, and he figures as a pioneering and influential voice in postcolonial literature.〔Said, Edward, ''Culture and Imperialism'', London: Chatto & Windus, 1993, p. 54.〕 A tireless political activist, James's writing on the Communist International stirred debate in Trotskyist circles, and his history of the Haitian Revolution, ''The Black Jacobins'', is a seminal text in the literature of the African Diaspora.〔Segal, Ronald. ''The Black Diaspora'', London: Faber, 1996, p. 275.〕
Characterized by one literary critic as an "anti-Stalinist dialectician",〔Said, ''Culture and Imperialism''. p. 253.〕 James was known for his autodidactism, for his occasional playwriting and fiction, and as an avid sportsman. He is also famed as a writer on cricket.〔Rosengarten: ''Urbane Revolutionary'', p. 134.〕
