Sažetak:Deciding to work on an introduction, especially Paulin J. Hountondji's “Démarginaliser”, which caps the collective work “Les Savoirs endogènes: pistes pour une recherché”, appears to be a challenge for a literary scholar. However, it is not so much the discipline as the author of the introductory text that fascinates and impresses. These different statuses and functions mean that his introduction, like all his other writings, must be approached with insight and skill. As a result, the deciphering of this inaugural text is based on the classic principles of the study of this type of writing, in order to make sense of the subject. The analysis of the introduction also provides an orientation that highlights the ways in which the text is approached, in terms of argumentation and rhetoric. In short, Paulin J. Hountondji's introduction, like the man himself, avoids the canons of the genre to open up to other possibilities meant to communicate the philosopher's concern and his hope for a demarginalized Africa.
