This study charts the intellectual history of the seminal Congolese philosopher, epistemologist and philologist V. Y. Mudimbe from the late 1960s to the present day, exploring his major essays and novels. It highlights Mudimbe's trajectory through major debates on African nationalism, Panafricanism, neo-colonialism, negritude, pedagogy, Christianisation, decolonisation, anthropology, postcolonial representations and a variety of other subjects, using these as contexts for close readings of many of Mudimbe's texts, both influential and lesser-known.
