dc.description.abstract |
The intention of this book is to affirm the exixtence of an African God (if there is any thing like
that); God the maker of a dynamaic universe. In this book, I analyse the mtyhs of various African
peoples who relate that after setting the world in motion, the Supreme Being withdrew and remains
“remote” from the concerns of human life or better perhaps set his paradigms in which (we call
mankind) could reach him through different metaphors, call them different religions.
The elementary concepts of British justice are a part of the essentials of civilization that we bring to
Africa along with vaccinations and drains and literacy and God (Emphasis added)1
This book focuses on how the idea of God(s) permeated the legal ideology of the Africa's
nascent states. During the colonial period, it debated the best way to instil the principles of
English justice in “savage” and “barbarous” peoples.
Africa, the Gold-land compressed within itself-the land of childhood, which lying beyond the day
of self-conscious history, is enveloped in the dark nature of night. 2 This book also begs the need to
better understand the origins of the continent. For example, where did the name Africa originate
from? This question has attracted various schools of thought in the quest to establish how the name
Africa came to be.
A certain school of thought argues that the name Africa never originated from within the people
and her people were never associated with the name. In fact, this school argues that Africa was
initially named Alkebulan and was widely referred to as Alkebulan before the name Africa was
conjured. |
