Abstract
This essay focuses on Abiola Irele’s passionate and life-long engagement with négritude and the centrality of his thinking and writing about négritude to his œuvre. Using one of Irele’s final lectures, if not the last public lecture he gave, the author, who witnessed the lecture, takes up several moments of that presentation and links them to Irele’s landmark work on négritude, his contributions to scholarship in African literary studies, and his footprint in the field through his publications, editorial leadership, and mentoring.
