Evolution of a Discipline: Intellectual Antecedents of African American Studies.
Woodyard, Jeffrey Lynn
Journal of Black Studies, v22 n2 p239-51 Dec 1991
Analyzes the history of the development of African-American studies as a social science and humanities discipline, and contends that the field is so new it has no history of its own. The inception of the Temple University (Pennsylvania) School of Afrocentric Scholarship marks the discipline's real birth. (SLD)
