Subject: H-AFRICA seeks African partners
Please call the following announcement to the attention of
ETHNOHIS readers. Thank you.
Mel Page, editor, H-AFRICA
*********************************
H-AFRICA is an international moderated English-language electronic
discussion group and bulletin board for scholars (including graduate
students), librarians, teachers, and other professionals broadly
interested in the African past, including a variety of disciplines
and approaches to the study of the entire continent. H-AFRICA
encourages informed discussions of teaching and research on African
history and humanities at all levels of interest and complexity.
A primary goal of H-AFRICA is to encourage and develop electronic
connections between humanities scholars in Africa and their
colleagues all over the world. To do so, we draw upon the
considerable technical and other resources of the H-Net (Humanities-
on-Line) organization, of which we are a part. H-AFRICA invites and
encourages scholars and other professionals in Africa to subscribe
and become partners with us in building humanities internet
connectivity on the continent.
H-AFRICA is currently edited by Professor Mel Page of East Tennessee
State University and Professor Harold Marcus of Michigan State
University, who may be reached to answer any questions at:
