个人简介
After studying Philosophy, Toby Green worked as a writer and editor, publishing various books that have been translated into 12 languages.
After holding fellowships from the British Academy and the Leverhulme Trust, in 2015 he was recipient of a British Academy Rising Star Engagement Award. He has also been PI of research projects funded by the AHRC, British Library, European Union, and the Leverhulme Trust, and was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize for History in 2017. He has organised events in collaboration with institutions in Angola, Brazil, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Sierra Leone, and The Gambia. His 2019 book A Fistful of Shells was awarded the British Academy’s Nayef Al-Rohdan Prize for Global Cultural Understanding.
Research Interests and PhD Supervision
I am primarily a historian of West Africa, and my work seeks to contribute towards a refocusing of the understanding of modern history by grasping the roles of West Africans in shaping world history. As the influence of peoples from West Africa in developing new ideas in the early modern period has often been passed over by historians, one of my main aims is to re-balance this approach.
Working in the "Global North", I seek also to work actively to reorient the privileges of academic power through collaborating with colleagues in the "Global South". I am currently active in collaborative projects with colleagues in Angola, Brazil, Guinea-Bissau, Ghana, Mozambique, and The Gambia. My research interests are broadly structured around West African engagement with the early Atlantic world through a number of themes, including economic change, cultural transformations, and slavery.
Specific areas of interest include:
Trans-Saharan and Trans-Atlantic Diasporas
African economic history and its intersection with world economic history
Atlantic slavery
Daily life
Connections between the precolonial, the colonial and the postcolonial state in Africa
Cultural and economic links between Brazil and Africa, 16th-19th centuries
PhD supervision -- recently completed:
Dorothee Boulanger: Fiction as History? Resistance, Compicities and the Intellectual History of Postcolonial Angola (2018) ·
Vincent Nadeau: Fidel and the Black Dove: African Origins of the Cuban Revolution (2019)
Joseph da Costa: Decoloniality and early colonial thought: Grammar and Cartography in the era of Portuguese expansion (2019)
