Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critiques the historical tendency of Western scholarship to misinterpret African spirituality through European frameworks, arguing for a more authentic understanding of indigenous practices. Okot p'Bitek, a pioneering African scholar, emphasizes the importance of studying African religions on their own terms rather than through a colonial lens. This edition includes a new introduction by philosopher Kwasi Wiredu, aiming to inspire a new generation to appreciate and engage with African spiritual cultures in a decolonized context.
