Recenzii
[T]he definitive translation of Amo's key writings and a treasure trove of critical apparatus. Essential and fascinating reading for anyone interested in the history of philosophy.
Making [Amo's] work accessible in a good contextualized translation along with the original text is useful both for scholars wanting to engage with him philosophically and for the wider audience that is interested in him as an historical figure. Smith and Menn have done excellent work.
Replete with insightful historical commentary ... This is a well-written and important book.
Amo, an 18th century philosopher from Africa who was trained in Europe and taught in Wittenberg, is little known among contemporary scholars. Yet his philosophy, as well as his biography, is fascinating. It's terrific to have a high quality modern edition of his work. The editors' well-developed introduction addresses matters of biography, reception, political and intellectual context, generic conventions, philosophical background, and provides a summary of Amo's arguments. This book will be used widely. Many of us are seeking to do a better job of conveying to students the global networks that have constituted philosophy across the centuries. Many will surely avail themselves of the opportunity to include Amo on a syllabus.
