Description

Review This volume brings together scholars from different fields who incisively investigate the complex topoi of humanism in African cultural productions. Through the exploration of oral and written literatures, war speeches, paintings, and cartoons, contributors identify the ways in which various works engage the (re)emergence of African societies in the context of (neo)colonial, modern nationhood and globalization threats. This book is undoubtedly a major addition to readings in African socio-political history and culture.--Alexie Tcheuyap, University of Toronto Despite the existence of entrenched humanistic values throughout African philosophical, moral, and religious beliefs and epistemologies, Humanism is too often conceived of, both historically and contemporarily, as a strictly European movement and cultural product. African Cultural Production and the Rhetoric of Humanism is a much needed counter balance to that persistent inaccuracy, providing convincing examples from across national, disciplinary, and temporal boundaries. This collection of essays reveals that a universal concept of Humanism is not possible without input from Africa's diverse voices and practices, especially when European Humanism played such an unfortunate, prominent role in the African colonial era.--Stephen Bishop, University of New Mexico
