In this article, I critically examine the pedagogical problems in the teaching of ancient history of African philosophy in continental and diaspora Africa. I argue that the teaching of ancient history of African philosophy poses ab initio some peculiar problems arising from a number of factors: scepticism about the existence of such a classical philosophy; the problem of language and the controversy in the historiography of African philosophy. An examination of these issues as well as a discussion of their possible resolutions constitutes serious challenges both at the pedagogical and philosophical levels. I establish the particularistic, mythological, comparative, historical, and philosophical dimensions of ancient African philosophy which are instructive in the teaching of the course in tertiary institutions in continental and diaspora Africa. I provide advice on some common issues that are sensible to acquaint learners with in the teaching of the course in the homeland and diasporas, regardless of the variations in topics, emphasis, contents and texts. Consequently, I suggest a course scheme in ancient history of African philosophy that may be minimally adopted at the tertiary level.

讲授古代非洲哲学
在本文中,我批判性地考察了非洲大陆和海外流传的非洲哲学古代史教学中的教学问题。我认为,非洲哲学古代史的教学从一开始就引起了许多因素引起的一些特殊问题:对这种古典哲学的存在持怀疑态度;语言问题和非洲哲学史学中的争议。对这些问题的研究以及对可能解决方案的讨论在教学和哲学层面都构成了严峻的挑战。我确定了古代非洲哲学的特殊性,神话性,比较性,历史性和哲学性,它们对非洲大陆和海外侨民的高等院校的课程教学具有指导意义。我提供有关一些常见问题的建议,无论在主题,重点,内容和教科书上有何不同,在国土和侨民的课程教学中,熟悉学习者都应注意。因此,我建议在非洲哲学的古代历史中开设一个课程计划,该课程计划在高等教育方面可能很少采用。
