In African Art as Philosophy, Souleymane Bachir Diagne uses a unique approach to reading Senghors influential works, taking as the starting point for his analysis Henri Bergsons idea that in order to understand philosophers, one must find the initial intuition from which every aspect of their work develops. In the case of Senghor, Diagne argues that his primordial intuition is that African art is a philosophy.To further this point, Diagne looks at what Senghor called the 1889 Revolution (the year Bergsons Time and Free Will was published), as well as the influential writers and publications of that periodspecifically, Nietzsche and Rimbaud.
