Prof. D. A. Masolo was born and brought up under British colonial rule in his native Kenya, and was awarded a doctoral degree in philosophy at the Università Gregoriana in Rome, Italy. His research interests reflect a critical awareness of this personal and cultural history by seeking to analyze, explain, and understand, first, philosophical traditions as both part and functions of social histories and, second, the philosophical significance of African cultures and their contributions to philosophical discourses in a global context. He is currently at work on the first English translation of Shaaban Robert’s classic Swahili novel Kusadikika.
