Abstract
Between the 1920s and 1940s, Haitian literature moved towards its center of gravity. Initially , writers of the Indigenist school attempted to reposition themselves in the Latin American space and explore literature as object and form. Contrary to its name, the exploration of indigenous culture was the work of only a handful of authors, such as Jean Price-Mars, a thinker ahead of his time, both in terms of Haitian issues and the black condition in general.
