The Surreptitious Speech: Presence Africaine and the Politics of Otherness 1947-1987
Editat de V. Y. Mudimbeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 1992
Distinguished scholar V. Y. Mudimbe assembles a lively tribute to Presence Africaine, the landmark African studies journal begun in 1947 Paris. While it celebrates the project's forty-year history, The Surreptitious Speech does not naively canonize the journal but rather offers a vibrant discussion and critical reading of its context, characteristics, and significance.
