Franciscan priest Placide Tempels's 1946 book, Bantu Philosophy,
introduced a new discourse about African thought and beliefs,
questioning the universality of Western philosophy and establishing
paradigms that continue to dominate discussion of the relationships
between Africa and the West today. More than 75 years after the
publication of this influential text, this volume brings together a
wide range of contributors to examine the legacy and impact of
Tempels's work for the study of African philosophy and religion.
Reflecting on whether Bantu Philosophy reinforces conflict or
convergence between Africa and the West, and its reception within
Africa, scholars from both African and Western institutions provide
new perspectives on both Tempels's ideas and ongoing debates in
African philosophy and religion.
