Writing Independent History
Angebote / Angebote:
Neale's book is a useful addition to the literature [of modern African studies]. In particular, Neale attacks the idea of progress and evolution in African history. Old colonialists argued that there was no progress, nationalist' writers of the 1960s emphasized the glories of the past, radical historians of the 1970s focused on continuing poverty. Neale has also included chapters on the writing of religious history, the new group' history, e.g., the history of women, and the use of oral traditions in history writing. Africanists and historians of other world areas will find this work most interesting."-Choice
