In Senegal, the Muridiyya, a large Islamic Sufi order, is the single most influential religious organization, including among its numbers the nation's president. Yet little is known of this sect in the West.

Abstract

Die permanenten Aushandlungsprozesse afrikanischer Selbstwahrnehmungen sind komplexen kultur- und entwicklungsgeschichtlichen Dynamiken unterworfen. Ihnen nähern sich die Beiträger*innen des Bandes aus interdisziplinären Perspektiven und untersuchen interkulturelle Perspektiven in Literatur und Film, Ansätze der Kolonial- und Reiseliteraturforschung, die Linguistik des Sprachkontakts, die transkulturelle Erinnerungsforschung sowie Debatten aus den postkolonialen Studien. Damit eröffnen sie neue Perspektiven interkultureller Sprach- und Literaturforschung und werfen ein neues Licht auf die kulturgeschichtliche und sprachliche Situation sowie auf transkulturelle Erinnerungskulturen Afrikas.
