This article takes John Milton’s description of the “knotty Africanisms” of the Church Fathers as the launching point for an investigation of African Latin in early modern thought.

The first part traces the development of a conception of Africitas or Africanismus as a peculiarly African form of Latin in Western scholarship from Erasmus to the early eighteenth century. The second part considers early modern African Latinists such as the Granada professor Juan Latino and the Jamaican poet Francis Williams and their reception in this light. The concept of Africitas is shown to have taken hold at the same time as the globalization of Latin. Cet article adopte la description des « africanismes épineux » des Pères de l’Église composée par John Milton comme point de départ d’une enquête sur le latin africain dans la pensée de la première modernité. La première partie retrace le développement d’une conception de l’Africitas ou Africanismus comme forme proprement africaine du latin dans la production savante occidentale, depuis Érasme jusqu’au début du xviiie siècle. La deuxième partie se concentre sur des latinistes africains de la première modernité, tels que le professeur de Grenade Juan Latino et le poète jamaïcain Francis Williams, et leur réception. Il apparaît ainsi que le concept d’Africitas s’est imposé en même temps que la mondialisation du latin. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Renaissance & Reformation / Renaissance et Réforme is the property of Iter Canada and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
