African intellectual history | The Harriet Tubman Institute /research/tubman The Harriet Tubman Institute at żě˛ĄĘÓƵ Fri, 01 May 2026 14:11:24 +0000 en-CA hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 Zeyad El Nabolsy /research/tubman/profile/zeyad-el-nabolsy/ Mon, 07 Apr 2025 20:16:58 +0000 /research/tubman/?post_type=profile&p=8517 I specialize in the history of Africana philosophy with a focus on modern African philosophy. I have previously published on AmĂ­lcar Cabral’s philosophy of culture, methodological debates about racism and ideology in the historiography of philosophy, classical German philosophy (especially Kant and Hegel), Paulin Hountondji’s philosophy of science, modern African political and social philosophy (with a focus on African Marxism), and ancient Egyptian philosophy.

I am currently working on a comparative intellectual history of nineteenth African philosophy with a focus on James Africanus Beale Horton (in West Africa) and Rifa'a al-Tahtawi (in Egypt), in addition to a manuscript on Paulin Hountondji.

Keywords: African philosophy; African intellectual history; history of science in Africa
