Fashioning a People: Caribbean Hymnody as an Identity Performative

520 |a J. L. Austin has theorised that we can do things through spoken words. The taxonomy that he proposes, in such instances, characterizes words as being performative, meaning that when spoken, words are also causative. In this paper, I address how Caribbean hymnody might be viewed as being illustrative of this linguistic property. Specifically, I propose that the hymnic contents of Sing A New Song No. 3, the Caribbean's first comprehensive indigenous hymnal, should be viewed as performing a Caribbean ecumenical identity. To substantiate this claim, I place Caribbean hymnody within the broader context of congregational hymnody as possessing performative attributes. As a product of the Caribbean Conference of Church (CCC), I contend that this hymnal epitomises the general goals of this regional organization which were renewal and development of the Caribbean's collective ecumenical identity.
