Abstract :
[en] This essay takes a closer look at some of Evelyn O’Callaghan’s scholarly achievements, beyond her overarching commitment to the work of Caribbean women writers. It particularly focuses on her early publication The Earliest Patriots, her active and generous involvement in various collaborative endeavours, and finally her long-lasting concern for the way writers from the Caribbean and its diaspora have represented ‘madness’ in their work. All these areas of interest confirm Evelyn’s impressive caliber as a human being and academic while demonstrating once again that her scholarship has of all times been “breaking historical and critical silences”.
