Abstract:
The autobiography of Olaudah Equiano (1745–1797) offers an unusual portrait of the dynamic relationship between scripture and colonialism. In 1789 Equiano, who also went by the name Gustavus Vassa, related his experience of slavery to support abolitionism in Britain in the form of a best-selling, two-volume autobiography titled The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African, Written by Himself. Equiano's autobiography comprises a striking description of religion and culture among the Igbo of West Africa, the nation with which he identified by birth. According to Equiano, the Igbo were descended from ancient Jews, and their religion was a modern survival of ancient biblical religion. This claim, seemingly casual at first, is actually a complicated maneuver that reveals how deeply he had mined a trove of biblical commentary to shape his interesting narrative for a skeptical readership. The early modern genre of biblical commentary, which was deeply influenced by the exigencies of European colonialism, constitutes in its own right an authoritative literature that proved quite useful for Equiano.

Abstract:
Abstract This article is dedicated to a topic that has been largely neglected in the historiography of philosophy to date: the position of philosophers towards the institution of slavery. Especially in survey works on the history of philosophy, positions on slavery and colonial conquest are not addressed, but have so far only been discussed in a few individual studies. From the beginning of European expansion, however, philosophical and political theories no longer emerged independently of these developments, as the expansion forced reflection on how to deal with the conquered regions and peoples, and thus on the problematic sides of the ‘voyages of discovery’: land grabbing, subjugation and slavery. Such entanglements are briefly explained using John Locke as an example. In view of the “colonial ensnarement of the Enlightenment” (Elberfeld) and the need for a critical examination of it, I propose as a methodological approach to include texts by thinkers of African origin, who had first-hand experiences of the institution of slavery and critically reflected on their own social position, the social and political conditions of their time as well as moral questions. Using three selected Black thinkers, the poet Phillis Wheatley (1753–1784), the abolitionist Olaudah Equiano (1745–1797) and the theologian Jacobus Elisa Johannes Capitein (ca. 1717–1747), I discuss the relevance of texts by former slaves for the historiography of philosophy.

Abstract:
O texto busca debater conceitos fundamentais no que diz a respeito do tema História da África “pré-colonial”, sobretudo, o debate em torno do conceito de escravidão e suas possíveis transformações diante das influências externas e conexões com outras culturas, tais como o islamismo árabe e o cristianismo europeu. Esse texto foi desenvolvido a partir da fonte histórica autobiográfica de Olaudah Equiano e por meio da metodologia de Adalberto Marson (1984). O objetivo concentra-se no avanço do debate conceitual por meio da historiografia africanista e justifica-se pela importância do avanço das pesquisas referente ao recorte regional de Igbo, uma vez que foi uma das regiões que mais exportou escravos para o continente americano, tendo como grande contribuição para a formação da identidade cultural americana.

Abstract:
Equiano Olaudah (1745?-1797), esclave affranchi, est certainement l'un des auteurs africains à avoir suscité le plus grand intérêt de ses contemporains au XVIIIe siècle, grâce à son autobiographie, The intersesting narrative of Olaudah Equinao or Gustavus Vassa, the African. Written by himself (1789), qui offre le récit de son voyage où son expérience humaine trouve son expression générale dans les repères historiques qu'il fournit à travers un texte littéraire qui englobe plusieurs valeurs interdisciplinaires et s'adresse à la fois à l'anthropologue, l'historien, l'économiste et le littéraire. Edité dans plusieurs pays et traduit en une dizaine de langues depuis 1789, The interesting narrative a ouvert la voie à un genre nouveau, le récit d'esclave, qui connaîtra son apogée au XIXe siècle en Amérique. De plus, ce récit a inspiré plusieurs auteurs d'Afrique noire anglophone du XXe siècle. .
Equiano Olaudah (1745 ?-1797), a freed slave, is certainly one of the African authors to have aroused the interest of his XVIIIth century contemporaries, due to his autobiography The interesting narrative of Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa, the African. Written by himself (1789) which recounts his travels where his personal experience is expressed in relation to historic references and is contained in a literary text that addresses several interdisciplinary topics of interest to the anthropologist, the historian, the economist and the writer. Published in many countries and translated into approximately ten languages since its original publication, The interesting narrative opened the way for a new literary genre, the slave narrative, which reached its peak in XIXth century America. In addition, the text has inspired many English-speaking African authors of the XXth century. .
