"A Companion to African Rhetoric does a wonderful job of introducing the diversity of concerns, objects, and approaches in the study of African rhetorics."
» Kundai Chirindo, Lewis & Clark College
A Companion to African Rhetoric, edited by Segun Ige, Gilbert Motsaathebe, and Omedi Ochieng, presents the reader with different perspectives on African rhetoric mostly from Anglophone sub-Saharan Africa and the Diaspora. The African, Afro-Caribbean, and African American rhetorician contributors conceptualize African rhetoric, examine African political rhetoric, analyze African rhetoric in literature, and address the connection between rhetoric and religion in Africa. They argue for a holistic view of rhetoric on the continent.

"A Companion to African Rhetorics is long overdue. Editors Ige, Motsaathebe, and Ochieng, along with 17 other scholars, have assembled the most comprehensive introduction—to date—to the breadth and depth of scholarship in African rhetorical traditions, showcasing surprisingly diverse theoretical origins, practices, languages, and literatures. In brilliant comparative fashion, each essay in this collection either disrupts, enriches, or troubles existing assumptions about what is (or is not) inherently African, rhetorical, democratic, and diasporic, attending to communicative theories and practices that have emerged from within—or more importantly, emerged across and between—colonial borders and contexts. Wenze kahle!"

"The first of its kind among studies of rhetoric in Africa, A Companion to African Rhetoric is a rich collection of essays covering a wide variety of rhetorical topics. With exceptional depth and scope—from deft theoretical treatises to insightful rhetorical analyses, critical commentaries, and empirical studies—the book will be a game changer in rhetorical studies, in global and comparative rhetorics. And it will likely set a new paradigm for the study of African and African Diaspora rhetorics."
