The Journal Philosophia Africana seeks papers on Du Bois’s The Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches, its context and legacy, as well as aspects of his thinking in Souls that he developed further in subsequent writings.

Suggested topics include:

The Souls of Black Folk at 100
Souls as ‘canonical’ text/Du Bois’ legacy
Souls’ publication and intellectual history
Souls’ Historical Context
Souls’ publication history
Du Bois & political/sociological/cultural theory
Du Bois & The American Negro Academy
Du Bois & Black creative intellectual thought
Du Bois & questions of race and nation
Du Bois’ early thought
Du Bois, cosmopolitanism, and the global paradigm
Du Bois’ aesthetics and aesthetic thought
Du Bois on sex, gender, and sexuality

We invite papers on topics that diverge from this list and from taking Souls as the primary text for analysis. The special issue will include papers from a wide range of topics and from a variety of methodological and intellectual positions.
