In answering the question of life s meaning, the African perspective is only just beginning to emerge. While this is true, a critical examination of African theories of meaningfulness, the possibility of life s meaninglessness, as well as ideas about the proper mode / mood for living with the meaninglessness of life are largely underexplored within the African philosophical tradition. This book provides several plausible accounts of meaning in / of life from an African perspective, examines the relationship between death and life s meaningfulness, and explores the possibility of life s meaninglessness, proposing the philosophy of indifference as the proper mode / mood for living with the meaninglessness of life.
