Existence and Heritage: Hermeneutic Explorations in African and Continental Philosophy (Philosophy and Race)

Tsenay Serequeberhan

4.9/5 (14629 ratings)

Description:In "Existence and Heritage," Tsenay Serequeberhan examines what the European philosophical tradition has to offer when encountered from the outsider perspective of postcolonial African thought. He reads Kant in the context of contemporary international relations, finds in Gadamer s work a way of conceiving relations among differing traditions, and explores Heidegger s analysis of existence as it converges with Marx s critique of alienation. In the confluence of these different assessments, Serequeberhan articulates both a need and example of responding to Fanon s call for a new kind of thinking in philosophy. He demonstrates both how continental philosophy can be a useful resource for theorizing Africa s postcolonial condition and how postcolonial thought and African philosophy can provide a new way of approaching and understanding the Western tradition."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
