Publisher: Editions Présence Africaine
ISBN: 9782708704695
Category : Africa
Languages : fr
Pages : 560
Book Description
L'Africain a toujours été et demeure créateur de cultures originales qui se sont épanouies et perpétuées, à travers les siècles, dans des voies qui leur sont propres. Cette conviction s'est renforcée depuis la fin de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale et se consolide, tous les jours, depuis l'accession à l'indépendance des pays d'Afrique. Sous l'égide de l'Unesco, d'éminents historiens se sont efforcés d'aborder l'étude de l'Afrique avec plus de rigueur, d'objectivité et d'ouverture d'esprit, en utilisant entre autres - avec les précautions d'usage - les sources africaines elles-mêmes. Leur œuvre, d'importance capitale, l'Histoire Générale de l'Afrique, dans cette édition abrégée, comporte huit volumes.

History of Humanity
Author: UNESCO
Publisher: UNESCO Publishing
ISBN: 9231028154
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 760
Book Description
Volume V of the History of Humanity is concerned with the 'early modern' period: the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

The second is regional, less theoretical and more empirical; it stresses cultural diversity, the links between different activities in a given region, and the importance of social contexts and local circumstances. Each chapter has a bibliography which directs the reader to sources of further information. The volume is extensively illustrated with line drawings and plates, and is comprehensively indexed
