Description of the Subject: Amadou Hampaté Bá (Malian historian)

The Malian Historian, ethnologist, poet and storyteller Amadou Hampaté Bá (Fula), was born in 1900 in Mali; he died in 1991 in Ivory Coast. Amadou Hampaté Bá was one of the great scholars of the African culture.

Amadou Hampaté Bá was a specialist in the oral traditions, author of numerous books on the ancient African Empires and Civilisation.

In his book “Jesus as Viewed by a Muslim” he wrote about the tolerance and the Inter-religious dialogue:

“My role is, above all, whenever I have the opportunity to meet a believer - whether he is my Christian brother, my Judaist brother, My Buddhist brother, my brother of the traditional religions - to start listening. It is time, I think, to forget our differences, to discover what we have in common and try to build from there, what could be the religious society of tomorrow.

Everyone must continue himself fully and reach God in his way” Amadou Hampaté Bá
