商品描述

This book argues that just as the ideas of Pan-Africanism birthed by Henry Sylvester-Williams and others in the late 1800s and Negritude ushered by Aimé Césaire and others in the early 1900s emboldened many major Black thinkers to push for independence across Africa, so will these early thinkers' ideas help in the building of a new Africa. The various chapters explore the proposition that the thoughts of early great Diaspora Black thinkers are still wellsprings of tenets that can be used to build a new Africa. The chapters examine how these thinkers conceptualized Africa in their works, with the main objective of delineating their conceptualizations to generate suggestions on how to build a new Africa.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書主張,正如亨利·西爾維斯特·威廉斯(Henry Sylvester-Williams)等人在19世紀末所孕育的泛非主義(Pan-Africanism)思想,以及艾梅·塞澤爾(Aimé Césaire)等人在20世紀初所倡導的黑人文化運動(Negritude),激勵了許多重要的黑人思想家推動非洲獨立,這些早期思想家的理念也將有助於新非洲的建設。各章節探討了早期偉大非洲裔思想家的思想仍然是建構新非洲的基本原則的源泉這一命題。章節檢視了這些思想家在其作品中如何概念化非洲,主要目的是界定他們的概念化,以產生有關如何建設新非洲的建議。
