Black Athena Writes Back

Martin Bernal`s BLACK ATHENA can be said to be one of the sites for the culture wars of the late 1980s and 1990s. In arguing for the Afro-Asian roots of Classical civilization, his book was a lightning rod for criticism from scholars and journalists. Here, he responds to the many critics from a variety of fields who disagreed with him in whole or in part. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
