The historiography of African religions and religions in Africa
presents a remarkable shift from the study of 'Africa as Object' to
'Africa as Subject', thus translating the subject from obscurity
into the global community of the academic study of religion. This
book presents a unique multidisciplinary exploration of African
traditions in the study of religion in Africa and the new African
diaspora. The book is structured under three main sections -
Emerging trends in the teaching of African Religions; Indigenous
Thought and Spirituality; and Christianity, Hinduism and Islam.
Contributors drawn from diverse African and global contexts situate
current scholarly traditions of the study of African religions
within the purview of academic encounter and exchanges with
non-African scholars and non-African contexts. African scholars
enrich the study of religions from their respective academic and
methodological orientations. Jacob Kehinde Olupona stands out as a
pioneer in the socio-scientific interpretation of African
indigenous religion and religions in Africa. This book is to his
honour and marks his immense contribution to an emerging field of
study and research.
