What non-Egyptian non-modern African philosophical texts do we know of?

by hyphenomicon

Not religious texts in general, please, unless those religious works are explicitly concerned with making philosophical arguments.

And links to English translations would be amazing.

First off, I apologize but I cannot point you in the direction of any primary sources. I just don't know that much about non-European philosophy beyond a smattering of Chinese philosophy and the Muslim Aristotelians.

What I can do is point you in the direction of a couple of reputable secondary sources that should get you started in the right direction. I'd give these (or at least the portions that strike you) a look. The bibliographies present in each volume should also be an enormous help, including hopefully pointing you in the direction of the primary sources/traditions with which contemporary academics interested in African philosophy are engaging.

African Philosophy: An Introduction, 3rd Edition, edited by Richard Wright. You may esp want to check out the essay "Person and Community in African Traditional Thought" by Ifeanyi Menkiti.

A Companion to African Philosophy edited by Kwasi Wiredu. Like basically all the Blackwell Companion books, this is a great resource for getting your feet wet and pointing you toward areas of interest and other related sources.

Hope this helps
