VY Mudimbe: Undisciplined Africanism is the first English-language monograph dedicated to the work of Valentin Yves Mudimbe. This book charts the intellectual history of the seminal Congolese philosopher, epistemologist, and philologist from the late 1960s to the present day, exploring his major essays and novels. Pierre-Philippe Fraiture 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. The book demonstrates that Mudimbe’s intellectual career has been informed by a series of decisive dialogues with some of the key exponents of Africanism (Herodotus, EW Blyden, Placide Tempels), continental and postcolonial thought (Jean-Paul Sartre, Frantz Fanon, Michel Foucault, and Claude Lévi-Strauss), and African thought and philosophy from Africa and the diaspora (L.S. Senghor, Patrice Nganang, and Achille Mbembe).

V.Y. Mudimbe est connu comme une figure de proue de la pensée africaine. Avec L'Odeur du père, L'Écart et The Invention of Africa, il s'est frayé une trace toujours plus importante dans le cheminement des études africaines, dans le cadre des études littéraires et culturelles, de la philosophie et des théories postcoloniales. Auteur d'une oeuvre romanesque et poétique remarquable, Mudimbe n'avait jamais à ce jour été présenté dans la totalité de son oeuvre vaste, embrassant la philosophie et la fiction romanesque. La monographie de Kasereka Kavwahirehi vient combler cette lacune et, de surcroît, pour la première fois l'oeuvre littéraire et scientifique, francophone et anglophone de Mudimbe est abordée dans ses liaisons organiques et ses lignes de force. Suivant Mudimbe dans sa traversée des frontières, territoriale et linguistique, générique et disciplinaire, Kasereka Kavwahirehi élucide les enjeux esthétiques, épistémologiques et existentiels de la démarche mudimbienne dont le but ultime est la fondation d'un nouveau discours africain sur le monde, libéré des pesanteurs coloniales. Les contextes existentiels, idéologiques et culturels africains, européens et américains de sa prise de parole et le rapport à ses sources d'inspiration (Foucault, Lévi-Strauss, Sartre, Jean de la Croix, Senghor, Mabika Kalanda, etc.) sont analysés pour mieux apprécier son travail d'appropriation recréatrice et éclairer la controverse qui accompagne sa réception dans certains milieux académiques. En fin de compte, cette oeuvre paradoxale apparaît à la fois comme une archéologie du discours africain et « un récit pour soi » ou une histoire du sujet africain allant de la réification coloniale à la liberté de se poser comme la source d'un discours à travers lequel il réinvente l'Afrique et lui donne une nouvelle destinée loin des pièges réductionnistes, que ceux-ci relèvent de l'eurocentrisme ou de l'afrocentrisme.

The Swiss missionaries played a primary role in explaining Africa to the literate world in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book emphasises how these European intellectuals, brought to the deep rural areas of southern Africa by their vocation, formulated and ordered knowledge about the continent. Central to this group was Junod who became a pioneering collector in the fields of entomology and botany. He would later examine African society with the methodology, theories and confidence of the natural sciences. On the way he came to depend on the skills of African observers and collectors. Out of this work emerged, in three stages between 1898 and 1927, an influential classic in the field of South African anthropology, Life of a South African Tribe. At the same time Patrick Harries examines how local people absorbed imported ideas into their own body of knowledge. Through a process of interchange and compromise, Africans adapted foreign ways of seeing and doing things, and rapidly made them their own. This is a history of new ideas and practices that shook African societies before and during the early years of colonialism. It is equally a history of ordinary people and their ability to adapt, change, and subvert these ideas. Professor T.O. Ranger says: 'Now, really for the first time, Harries sets these arguments in a wonderfully persuasive, detailed and dynamic context. He really understands the principle of nineteenth-century botany and insect classification, the organising concepts of linguistics, and the changing assumptions of ethnography and anthropology. One gets a profound sense of intellectual formation of debate and development of ideas. Missionary ideas are themselves no single thing but constantly in debate and in flux.'

The book examines, among other issues, the emergence of civil war as a result of political struggles. The construction of Africa as the 'other' has meant that factors commonly used to explain war elsewhere have been neglected in SubSaharan Africa. The political power struggle which evolved around the state is at the forefront of the analysis of civil war and societal conflict.

Despite a quarter century of "nation building," most African states are still driven by ethnic particularism—commonly known as "tribalism." The stubborn persistence of tribal ideologies despite the profound changes associated with modernization has puzzled scholars and African leaders alike. The bloody hostilities between the tribally-oriented Zulu Inkhata movement and supporters of the African National Congress are but the most recent example of tribalism's tenacity. The studies in this volume offer a new historical model for the growth and endurance of such ideologies in southern Africa.
