Description:
In this ground-breaking work, Paget Henry traces the roots of Afro-Caribbean discourse to traditional African thought and in the Christian and Enlightenment traditions of Western Europe. Since Afro-Caribbean thought is inherently hybrid in nature and marked by strong competition between its European and African orientations, Henry highlights its four main influences -- traditional African philosophy, the Afro-Christian school, Poeticism and Historicism -- as his organizing principle for discussion.
