    In Black Enlightenment Surya Parekh reimagines the Enlightenment from the position of the Black subject. Parekh examines the works of such Black writers as the free Jamaican Francis Williams (1697-1762), Afro-British thinker Ignatius Sancho (1729?-1780), and Afro-American poet Phillis Wheatley (1753?-1784), placing them alongside those of their white European contemporaries David Hume (1711-1776) and Immanuel Kant (1724-1804). By rethinking the Enlightenment and its canons, Parekh complicates common understandings of the Enlightenment wherein Black subjects could exist only in negation to white subjects. Black Enlightenment points to the anxiety of race in Hume, Kant, and others while showing the importance of Black Enlightenment thought. Parekh prompts us to consider the timeliness of reading Black Enlightenment authors who become "free" in a society hostile to that freedom

    "Black Enlightenment examines how eighteenth-century Black thinkers engage with Enlightenment philosophy in ways distinct from more general narratives of freedom or oppression. Surya Parekh considers how these thinkers are situated within Enlightenment discourses of race, especially considering the complex textuality and politics of whiteness embedded in canonical thought. Parekh centers the ideas of Francis Williams (1697-1762), Ignatius Sancho (c. 1729-1780), and Phillis Wheatley (c. 1753-1784). By critically assessing the work of these thinkers and others, Parekh unpacks their relationship to an Enlightenment philosophy dependent on slavery and the construction of the Black subject. Parekh's work not only informs many active fields of scholarship around the Black Atlantic and the intellectual history of the Enlightenment, but also investigates a confrontation between a confrontation between philosophy and Black thought that still inhabits global movements today"-- Examining the work of Black Enlightenment authors, Surya Parekh reimagines the Enlightenment from the position of the Black subject

    "Return to the Kingdom of Childhood: Re-envisioning the Legacy and Philosophical Relevance of Negritude examines the philosophy of Negritude through an innovative analysis of Leopold Sedar Senghor's oeuvre. In the first book-length study of Senghorian philosophy, Cheikh Thiam argues that Senghor's work expresses an Afri-centered conception of the human while simultaneously offering a critique of the Western universalization of "man." Senghor's corrective, descriptive, and prescriptive theory of humanness is developed through a conception of race as a cultural manifestation of being. Thiam contends that Senghor's conception of race entails an innovative Afri-centered epistemology and ontology. For Senghor, races are the effects of particular groups' relations to the world. The so-called "Negroes," for example, are determined by their epistemology based on their fluid understanding of the ontological manifestations of being. The examination of this ontology and its ensuing epistemology, which is constitutive of the foundation of Senghor's entire oeuvre, indicates that Negritude is a postcolonial philosophy that stands on its own"--From back cover.
