| Summary: | The Negro is open to all objects and all contacts. “He is here because he is always the one who gives himself entirely to the object and abandons himself to it. Through the rigours of climate, the Arabo-Berber was forced to cultivate within himself the virtues of the warrior. He must be mistrustful and keep the object at a distance. As a reaction to his isolation and the hostility or—more justly perhaps—the refusal of Nature or the Other, he exalts his ego, submitting the Other to himself, from whence stems an avidity for power and ambition. This has already been noted by Frobenius.However, there are many dialectical contrasts where the inseparability of opposing elements calls for a “conciliating agreement”. |
