<i>Essai d’histoire locale</i> by Djiguiba Camara: L’œuvre d’un historien guinéen à l’époque coloniale / The Work of a Guinean Historian during the Colonial Period: African Sources for African History, cartea 17
Autor Elara Bertho, Marie Rodeten Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 mai 2020
Ce texte, Essai d’histoire locale, illustre la fabrique de l’histoire locale par un intermédiaire colonial guinéen et un intellectuel, à partir du point de vue spécifique de la famille Camara, qui fut engagée dans les armées de Samori. Ce texte n’a été connu que parce qu’il est devenu l’une des sources majeures de l’historien français Yves Person pour sa monumentale thèse Samori, Une Révolution Dyula (1968-1975). Avec l'édition annotée de cette source primaire, Essai d’histoire locale de Djiguiba Camara devient enfin accessible à un lectorat plus vaste. Elara Bertho et Marie Rodet ont démontré grâce à cette publication que Essai d’histoire locale est une source essentielle pour la compréhension de l’histoire de la Guinée et de la fabrique de l’historiographie en générale, et du travail d’Yves Person en particulier.
Although a key figure in West African historiography, Djiguiba Camara has remained almost completely unknown. Completed in 1955, Essay on Local History focuses on the history of Upper Guinea with an emphasis on the Empire of Samori Touré and anticolonial resistance.
Everywhere in Essay on Local History we can see not only the highly developed craft of the local historical writing of a Guinean colonial intermediary and scholar, but the view he gave is from the particular perspective of the Camara family, who had served in Samori’s armies.Djiguiba Camara’s own work had been known only by reputation as a source for the monumental thee-volume Samori – Une Révolution Dyula (1968-1975) by the French historian Yves Person. Now however, in this fully annotated text edition, Djiguiba Camara’s Essay on Local History becomes available to a wider audience for the first time. Elara Bertho and Marie Rodet have demonstrated through this publication that Essay on Local History is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand both the history of Guinea and the making of historiography in general, but also Yves Person’s modus operandi.

Recenzii
[...] 'Camara stands alongside powerful thinkers such as Amadou Hampâté Bâ, Joseph Ki-Zerbo, and Boubou Hama in describing the uniquenessand complexity of sociopolitical thought in West Africa. Bertho and Rodet have done a great service in providing this material to readers at the undergraduate, graduate, or scholarly levels. The volume, well-produced and edited by the Brill team and highly accessible in its bilingual form, will yield years of further insights into the place of Islamic genealogical, juridical, and political connections among West African groups previously thought of as largely animist, the role of slavery and violence in postcolonial West African societies prior to full-scale French arrival, and local processes of intellectual production'.[...]
