OverviewThe book Cornel West Matters is a review of the titular philosopher's seminal texts by Mahamadou Lamine Sagna, who has long been interested in the way West analyses politics, democracy, religion and race, and their intersections in America. It is also an analysis of the way West brings religion and music - particularly blues and jazz - into philosophy. First released in French in 2016, this book was received favourably by French and Senegalese intellectuals Now translated to English by Arlette Afagbegee, a French cultural studies specialist, with an updated foreword, the book examines West's ethics, convictions, and philosophical astuteness, while showcasing Sagna's analytical finesse.Wielding a distinctive mastery of philosophy, sociology and political science, Sagna examines Cornel West's dialectic and articulates honest rhetoric on racism, religion, violence and democracy in America. Also, the author demonstrates how, regardless of the immense price he might have to pay, West's rebellious thoughts are lessons of a unique philosophy with a global resonance despite their American focus.
