In 1969 Gerhard Kubik chanced to encounter a Mozambican labor migrant, a miner in Transvaal, South Africa, tapping a cipendani, a mouth-resonated musical bow. A comparable instrument was seen in the hands of a white Appalachian musician who claimed it as part of his own cultural heritage. Through connections like these Kubik realized that the link between these two far-flung musicians is African-American music, the sound that became the blues. Such discoveries reveal a narrative of music evolution for Kubik, a cultural anthropologist and ethnomusicologist. Traveling in Africa, Brazil, Venezuel

En novembre 2008, lors de l’élection de Barack Obama, des millions de téléspectateurs du monde entier ont vu des images du Kenya et des Etats-Unis, reflets des liens historiques existant entre les continents africain et américain. ll ne manquait que les rivages de l’Amérique du Sud et les images de mégalopoles européennes pour que les contours complets de « l’Atlantique noir » apparaissent de manière tangible. Cette notion géo-historique, forgée par le sociologue anglais Paul Gilroy au début des années 1990, a doté l’anthropologie des sociétés et des cultures afro-américaines d’objets, de problématiques et de cadres théoriques nouveaux. Elle étudie les productions culturelles afro-américaines en évitant le piège des oppositions binaires (essentialisme/anti-essentialisme, tradition/modernité) et dessine les routes maritimes de la terreur esclavagiste comme étant une dimension consubstantielle de la modernité. Révélant l’océan Atlantique comme lieu de circulation, de création et de résistance culturelle, l’ouvrage de Gilroy est rapidement devenu un classique des sciences sociales, discute dans plusieurs pays, langues et disciplines. Comment historiens, anthropologues, géographes ou sociologues d’Amérique latine, d’Afrique et d’Europe se sont-ils approprie la démarche et les problématiques de l’Atlantique noir ? Quels échos renvoie cette notion lorsqu’elle est travaillée depuis ses différentes franges côtières ou pour des époques différentes ? Quels sont les enjeux - politiques, épistémologiques des multiples débats qu’elle a suscites ? En quoi les perspectives ouvertes par cette approche novatrice ont-elles transforme la manière de penser les relations entre les trois continents ? C’est à ces grandes questions qu’entend répondre cet ouvrage, qui offre une polyphonie d’échos des travaux de PaulGilroy et en atteste l’impact dans la pratique des sciences sociales en ce début de XXIe siècle.

In 2005, following the death of two youths of African origin, France erupted in a wave of violent protest. More than 10,000 automobiles were burned or stoned, hundreds of public buildings were vandalized or burned to the ground, and hundreds of people were injured. Charles Tshimanga, Didier Gondola, Peter J. Bloom, and a group of international scholars seek to understand the causes and consequences of these momentous events, while examining how the concept of Frenchness has been reshaped by the African diaspora in France and the colonial legacy.

In this groundbreaking book Andrew Sluyter demonstrates for the first time that Africans played significant creative roles in establishing open-range cattle ranching in the Americas. In so doing, he provides a new way of looking at and studying the history of land, labor, property, and commerce in the Atlantic world.Sluyter shows that Africans' ideas and creativity helped to establish a production system so fundamental to the environmental and social relations of the American colonies that the consequences persist to the present. He examines various methods of cattle production, compares these methods to those used in Europe and the Americas, and traces the networks of actors that linked that Atlantic world. The use of archival documents, material culture items, and ecological relationships between landscape elements make this book a methodologically and substantively original contribution to Atlantic, African-American, and agricultural history.

In the past, scholars have looked at narratives of the African diaspora only to discover how these memoirs, poems, and fictions related to the West. The Trickster Comes West: Pan-African Influence in Early Black Diasporan Narratives explores relationships among African American, Afro-Caribbean, and Afro-British narratives of slavery and of New World and British oppression and what African influences brought to these diasporic expressions. Using an interdisciplinary method that combines history, literary theory, cultural studies, anthropology, folklore, and philosophy, the book examines the wor

Henry Louis Gates, Jr.'s original, groundbreaking study explores the relationship between the African and African-American vernacular traditions and black literature, elaborating a new critical approach located within this tradition that allows the black voice to speak for itself. Examining the ancient poetry and myths found in African, Latin American, and Caribbean culture, and particularly the Yoruba trickster figure of Esu-Elegbara and the Signifying Monkey whose myths help articulate the black tradition's theory of its literature, Gates uncovers a unique system for interpretation and a pow

België schiep Congo, maar schiep Congo ook België? In hoeverre werd het 20ste-eeuwse België voor een stuk gevormd door zijn kolonie? Die vraag stelde de toonaangevende Congolese historicus Isidore Ndaywel enige jaren geleden. Deze interdisciplinaire bundel biedt een antwoord. Hij belicht de invloed van de kolonie op de Belgische cultuur en samenleving, van hoog tot laag. Want kolonialisme is geen eenrichtingsverkeer. In Tervuren, bij nationale optochten en in klaslokalen zie je hoe Congo België mee inkleurde. Maar ook in de politiek, de media en de kunsten. Het gaat evengoed om de nesteling va
