IGBO METAPHYSICS
Author: Rev. Fr. Prof. E.M.P. Edeh C.S.Sp.
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1496918983
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
ABSTRACT It is an abridged form of Towards an Igbo Metaphysics in which Fr. Edeh used Igbo Metaphysics to articulate African philosophy. In this work, the concept of being is derived from the Igbo concept of man which is "Mmadi", the good that is. The goodness of being is derived from the fact of creation that means coming from the Supreme good "Chineke". Man is created by God as Chineke and continuously cared for by God as Osebuluwa. With this fact, man is dignified, deserves to be cared for and respected by fellow human beings, the good that are. The special characteristic of African Philosophy is that it is identified with thought and action (EPITAISM). For the fact that African Philosophy sees man as dignified, deserving respect, that makes African Philosophy different from the philosophy that sees man as wolf to man. If this African philosophy is widely accepted, it will certainly lead to the solving the problem of world peace.

African Metaphysics, Epistemology and a New Logic
Author: Jonathan O. Chimakonam
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303072445X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This book focuses on African metaphysics and epistemology, and is an exercise in decoloniality. The authors describe their approach to "decoloniality" as an intellectual repudiation of coloniality, using the method of conversational thinking grounded in Ezumezu logic. Focusing specifically on both African metaphysics and African epistemology, the authors put forward theories formulated to stimulate fresh debates and extend the frontiers of learning in the field. They emphasize that this book is not a project in comparative philosophy, nor is it geared towards making Africa/ns the object/subjects of philosophy. Rather, the book highlights and discusses philosophical insights that have been produced from the African perspective, which the authors argue must be further developed in order to achieve decoloniality in the field of philosophy more broadly.
