摘要
大卫·盖格斯(David Geggus)在回应我在上世纪90年代写的两篇文章,以及我在《大西洋世界文化史》(Cultural History of the Atlantic World, 2012)一书中的一部分时,指责我煽动了“Kongomania”。我是研究刚果王国历史的专家,这是真的,在这两篇文章中,刚果的历史都是论点的重要组成部分。尽管我自己喜欢刚果及其在世界上的角色,但我不认罪。
In response to two pieces I wrote in the 1990s, and a section of my book Cultural History of the Atlantic World (2012), David Geggus has charged me with fomenting “Kongomania.” I am a specialist in the history of the Kingdom of Kongo, it is true, and in both pieces, Kongo's history was an important part of the argument. In spite of my own fondness for Kongo and its role in the world, I plead not guilty.
