1 To be strictly accurate, Trevor-Roper wrote, in The Rise of Christian Europe (2nd ed., London: Thames and Hudson, 1966, p.9) “Perhaps in the future there will be some African history to teach. But at present there is none, or very little; there is only the history of the Europeans in Africa. The rest is largely darkness … and darkness is not a subject for history”.
