Emmanuel Chukwudi Eze
The Nigerian philosopher was a specialist in postcolonial philosophy, focusing much of his work on postcolonial thought in Africa and the Americas. Emphasising on the importance of difference and complexity in the practice of reason, he wrote and edited several influential postcolonial histories of philosophy in Africa, Europe, and the Americas. Before his death in December 2007, he was the Associate Professor of Philosophy at DePaul University, where he also edited the journal Philosophia Africana. Born in 1963 and receiving education in Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo, his doctoral thesis from Fordham University was on “Rationality and the Debates about African Philosophy.”
He subsequently taught at Bucknell University and at Mount Holyoke College, and was a post-doctoral visiting scholar at Cambridge University from 1996 to 1997, where he designed the M. Phil. program in African Studies.
