Produktbeschreibung
This colossal and stimulating academic output is a conscious effort to subject sexuality and its relationship with culture in postcolonial Africa to audacious scrutiny. Clearly, this aspect of human behavior is often deliberately suppressed or latently misrepresented. The articles that constitute this interdisciplinary and fascinating new book is a harvest from an international conference organized by the Institute of African Studies of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, in collaboration with the Centre for Black and African Arts and Civilization (CBAAC). It examined comprehensively historical antecedents and patterns of sexuality, including reversals in gendered roles and eroticism in traditional and postcolonial Africa. This is a uniquely detailed chronicle of challenging new perspectives, a tour de force, a significant contribution to a stimulating subject dealing with this crucial period in African Studies.
