Abstract
The role of Henry Swanzy in supporting the development of West Indian literature through his editorship of the weekly BBC radio programme Caribbean Voices between 1946-1954 is well documented and frequently discussed. In this paper, Swanzy’s work is contextualised through his own background and life together with the significant personal events that were taking place in this period. In particular it considers Swanzy’s motivations and objectives for his BBC work in the West Indies and after in West Africa and how his domestic life shaped his approach and decisions on this engagement.
