Kwame Nkrumah is globally recognized as a foremost pan-Africanist strategist and statesman. He is less widely acknowledged as a philosopher, in spite of his considerable philosophical training, seminal contribution to African political theory, and incisive critique of the ethics of international relations. Consciencism has the distinctive status of being the only published book that Nkrumah consciously meant to be a work of his philosophy, yet it has failed to attract the focused attention of philosophers. The chapters in Disentangling Consciencism: Essays on Kwame Nkrumah's Philosophy critically explore the metaphysical, ethical and political thought expressed in Consciencism. In doing so, they broaden our understanding of his philosophical ideas and their relevance for effective African contribution to thought in a contemporary world in which Africa increasingly totters on the margins of international affairs. In much of current moral and political thinking, there is a tendency to universalize liberal values and neglect non-Western philosophical perspectives. At the same time, global normative thinking is overwhelmingly applied in non-Western contexts. Writing from across three continents, the contributors to this volume establish greater intellectual connection among African, Asian and Western academics, and their chapters offer explicit perspectives on the value of Nkrumah's philosophy, and on the conceptual basis of early post-colonial public policy options in Africa. A valuable appendix provides the text of speeches delivered at the 1964 launch of Consciencism. With insights into numerous dimensions of Nkrumah's philosophy, this volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars of philosophy-especially of non-Western metaphysical, moral and political thought-and to anyone working in the history of African political theory.
After a successful encounter with the hidden deity Ariadne, Arihito is ranked number one in the eighth district, where he continues to flex his powers as a Rearguard. Though he's far from getting used to dealing with his hyperactive team, he manages to secure the rights to fight in the seventh district-when he finds himself in the middle of an unexpected setback. Will Arihito be able to protect the city from a violent stampede of monsters?!
Arihito and his party’s preparations for their ultimate battle against the Shining Simian Lord are going smoothly: They now possess an item that can lift Theresia’s curse, and Arihito recently obtained a new Hidden God power courtesy of Fylgja and her Intelligent Armor. But the curse is still slowly eating away at Theresia. To save her from this seemingly unbeatable foe, Arihito must join forces with his vast support system and the Guild Saviors!

Arihito has obtained the power of another Hidden God and foiled a plot from the White Night Brigade's assassins. Soon, he and his party receive a request from the Guild Saviors to help suppress a stampede in the Fifth Ward. Then a potential opportunity arises to rescue Elitia's missing friend... Just how will Arihito realize Elitia's most deeply held wish?

But rest and relaxation may not come easy for him, because the White Night Brigade has their eye on his infamous rearguard skills...!
The Idea of a Negro-African Philosophy is a short book originally published in 1979. It is a concise, yet thorough and systematic, exploration of the question of African philosophy as it emerges out of the central concerns of the postcolonial present. "Propositions on Cultural Identity" a short article, published in the same year, is a succinct philosophic exploration of the question of identity, as it pertains to the cultural, political and economic issues linked to Africa's politico-economic dependence on the West. In both texts - presented here in translation for the first time - Towa engages the question of African Philosophy by concretely exploring and showing how this question is organically linked to the efforts of the Continent aimed at reclaiming its economic, political, historical and existential actuality. Broaching the question from slightly differing, yet complimentary, angles Towa articulates a stance that directly engages the central concerns of African independence, in the context of a postcolonial world that is still tied to the apron-strings of its former colonisers.

As he begins his new life, he quickly gathers curious companions: his old supervisor who's younger than he is, a mysterious demi-human mercenary girl, and a gorgeous high-level swordswoman. With this bevvy of interesting ladies in his party, his journey as the greatest supporter that's ever lived!
