This work is for African students and students of African history, offering a local perspective on the study of history. It considers biography as history, objectivity, oral/non-literate societies and history, archaeololgy, ideological issues in African historiography and writing Nigerian history. A whole section is given to a discussion of the challenges facing the twenty-first century Nigerian historian. These are identified as: how to overcome the slump in the study of history, and crisis in identity and relevance after the peak and progess of the late seventies; how to improve the status of history at secondary and tertiary levels, and more generally, how to encourage the wider participation of Nigerian historians in international research networks. The contributors are mainly professors and lecturers at the University of Lagos and Ogun State University.

Essay from the year 2010 in the subject History - Africa, grade: 80.0%, , language: English, abstract: “History,” according to E.H. Carr, “cannot be written unless the historian can achieve some kind of contact with those about whom he is writing”. Throughout the pursuit of history, we search for a link between the past and the present, and that, almost definitively, arrives in the form of written sources. However, how should we approach history when written sources elude us, and all we have to rely on (for the most part) are oral sources and tradition? A nature that certainly defines the so-called ‘acephalous’ societies of pre-colonial Africa, and to a lesser extent contemporary Africa. Orality is not seen in modern scholarship, admittedly dominated by Western and Europeanized thought, as a viable or reliable source for constructing history. Yet, does this orality consign Africa to the peripheries of history, to the wastelands of historical thought and theory? Is Africa, as Hugh Trevor-Roper once claimed “unhistoric”? This essay will examine whether oral sources are a sufficient foundation for the history of a continent, and whether their innate weaknesses and flaws as a source indeed render them, as previously believed, inadequate for such a venture. Of paramount importance in this essay is to assess whether a history of Africa can survive within the ideas of what History is and should be, ideas ultimately Western, indeed European, in their conception. Or can we separate Africa from Europe, both in terms of colonial impact and historical theory, and create a purely Africanist history? Hence, by the end of this essay, I hope to have displayed that oral sources have value within themselves as a source for history, and that the constraints of European history need not necessarily apply to Africa. Perhaps then, Africa can be resurrected from the “graveyard of academic publishing”.

Conforming to the pattern established in Problems in African History, I have constructed seven "Problems" dealing with the partition, occupation, and administration of Africa by the European powers. As before, the appellation "Problems" refers not only to those topics which at present invoke controversy and conflicting interpretations, but also to those subjects which lend themselves to discussion and inquiry. I have made no attempt to present a narrative for Africa in the colonial period; that is the task of the instructor. - Preface.
