- W3103603257 abstract "African philosophy presupposes African metaphysics. It is that aspect of African philosophy that specifically studies the African distinctive notion of reality and existence. It does not necessarily suggest a contradictory notion of reality as conceived in Western metaphysical thought, but a peculiar way in which the African understands issues of existence and reality. Reality is one and universal but conceived differently by individuals based on their conceptions of life which makes everything around them meaningful. Metaphysics attempts a comprehensive view of reality by investigating whether there are principles that apply to everything that is real and if there is something which is ultimately real.1 Within this understanding, the African mind thinks in hierarchical categories and modes as against thinking in single, isolated and individualistic manner. It understands reality as a relationship of things and therefore analyzes phenomena in terms of cause and effect, balance and conflict.2 Any metaphysical study worthy of its salt brings under its focus of study both transcendental and particulars of individual existence. This enables the study to investigate how particulars are related within the universal. Consequently, it aims at providing a comprehensive view of reality while not neglecting individual phenomenon in the holism of reality." @default.
