This collection of meditations reformulates the experience of
African studies as a concern with three thematics: Africa's place
within today's intellectual, economic and cultural configurations;
the main axes that structure disciplinary practices concerned with
African difference; and the possibility of understanding
being-in-the-world with reference to alienation, creativity and
friendship.This book is highly innovative in its re-evaluation of
alterity. It marshalls a broad range of theories from Adorno to
Marx to Walter Benjamin, all the while grounding it in African
politics and aesthetics through the lens of Yacouba Konate. A
veritable tour de force, if ever there was one.--- Kgomotso
Masemola, associate professor of English, University of South
Africa
