Myths, or sacred narratives, have been underexplored in mainstream philosophy of religion, which has also had little to say about African indigenous religions. These lacunae impoverish the philosophy of religion by diminishing its coverage both of the range of human religious possibilities and of the diverse modes through which religious ideas and world-views are conveyed. With particular attention to Yorùbá religion, this article promotes and exemplifies a pluralistic narrative approach that draws upon mythology to facilitate philosophical reflection upon a wider array of religious traditions, for the dual purpose of doing conceptual justice to those traditions while also furthering the discipline's conceptual enrichment.

非洲宗教、神话叙事和宗教哲学中的概念丰富

神话或神圣的叙述在主流宗教哲学中没有得到充分探索,这对非洲本土宗教也几乎没有什么可说的。这些漏洞削弱了宗教哲学对人类宗教可能性的范围以及传达宗教思想和世界观的多种模式的覆盖范围,从而使宗教哲学变得贫乏。本文特别关注约鲁巴宗教,提倡并举例说明一种多元叙事方法,该方法利用神话促进对更广泛的宗教传统的哲学反思,以实现对这些传统进行概念公正的双重目的,同时也促进学科的概念丰富.
