Autor

James Morris Webb, largely an obscure figure in the annals of literature, is chiefly known for his work, 'The Black Man, the Father of Civilization - Proven by Biblical History.' This title, which indicates the book's exploration of the role of Black individuals in the foundation of human society, suggests that Webb's literary pursuits were deeply intertwined with the subjects of race and ancient history. Webb's book posits the thesis that Black men were pivotal to the dawn of civilization, an idea he supports with interpretations of biblical texts. Although comprehensive biographical details about Webb are scant, his contributions are situated within the broader context of Afrocentric literature, a genre that seeks to center the experiences and contributions of African and African diaspora cultures in world history. His work, reflective of the early intellectual traditions that sought to challenge the marginalization of Black achievements in historical discourse, is an artifact of its time, encapsulating the strain of thought that advocated for a re-evaluation of the historical record to acknowledge the significant contributions of Black civilizations. Webb's scholarly style aligns with the historical revisionist trends of his era, aiming to reconstruct social narratives through an analysis of religious and historical texts. However, the impact of Webb's work on contemporary scholarship remains relatively limited, his treatise serving more as a historical curiosity than a foundational text within the field of Afrocentric studies.
