African Philosophy, Second Edition
Author: Paulin J. HOUNTONDJI
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253210968
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Hountondji contends that ideological manifestations of this view that stress the uniqueness of the African experience are protonationalist reactions against colonialism conducted, paradoxically, in the terms of colonialist discourse. Hountondji argues that a genuine African philosophy must assimilate and transcend the theoretical heritage of Western philosophy and must reflect a rigorous process of independent scientific inquiry.

African Philosophy for the Twenty-First Century
Author: Jean Godefroy Bidima
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 153815417X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
In Africa, the twenty-first century began with new challenges surrounding and regarding philosophical discourses. Questions of economic and political liberation, the displacement of populations and the process of urbanization present ongoing challenges, linked to problems such as endemic diseases and famine, the restructure of the traditional family, gender and the position of women, the transmission of culture from past to future generations. Changes in labor relations resulting from introduction of financial speculation, cutting edge technologies, and differential access to digital and older cultural forms have placed real demands on Africans and Africanists working in philosophy. This volume explores the ways in which African philosophies express “transitional acts,” those acts by which thought interacts with history as it is being made and by which it assures its own renewal in proposing provisional solutions to historical problems. A transitional act combines both the audacity of confrontation and the novelty of creation, prudence in the face of risks and anticipation in the face of the unexpected. Influential and emerging thinkers from both sides of the Atlantic consider this dual activity in the realm of criticism and imagination, public spaces in Africa, and the relationship between historical politics and historical poetics.

L'oeuvre, pensée comme une tentative de détermination d'un "fonds de sens" susceptible de réappropriations différentes, est le fruit d'une recherche approfondie des traditions orales africaines.

Plotinus and African Concepts of Evil
Author: Christian Mofor
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783039112531
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
This book explores the concepts of evil in the world-views of Plotinus and the Nso' people of Cameroon. The author analyzes the theories of the natural structure and social organization of these views of the world. He stresses the importance of comparing Plotinus and African philosophy. The book offers a proper appreciation of fundamental differences, parallels and similarities and seeks to build on shared values and common existential concerns in the world-views of Plotinus and the Nso'. This book highlights the assumption that the world understood in terms of its wider dimensions is not a purposeless conglomerate of phenomena and events that bear no relation to each other, but is rather a structured whole, defined by hierarchy and order.
