Synopsis

Prodromus: Towards A Philosophical Inquiry Into The Intellectual Powers Of The Negro is a book written by Edward Binns in 1844. The book is a philosophical inquiry into the intellectual abilities of the African race, and it seeks to challenge the prevailing views of the time that Africans were intellectually inferior to Europeans. Binns argues that the intellectual powers of the Negro are not inherently inferior to those of other races, and that their perceived lack of intelligence is due to social and environmental factors, rather than innate differences. He draws on various sources, including scientific studies and historical accounts, to support his arguments.The book is divided into several chapters, each exploring a different aspect of the intellectual powers of the Negro. Binns discusses topics such as language, memory, imagination, and reasoning, and provides examples of the intellectual achievements of Africans throughout history.Overall, Prodromus: Towards A Philosophical Inquiry Into The Intellectual Powers Of The Negro is a pioneering work in the field of African philosophy, and it remains an important contribution to the ongoing debates about race and intelligence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
