The African Trilogy Things Fall Apart; Arrow of God; No Longer at Ease【電子書籍】[ Chinua Achebe ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Chinua Achebe is considered the father of modern African literature, the writer who "opened the magic casements of African fiction." ＜em＞The African Trilogy＜/em＞--comprised of ＜em＞Things Fall Apart＜/em＞, ＜em＞Arrow of God＜/em＞, and ＜em＞No Longer at Ease＜/em＞--is his magnum opus. In these masterly novels, Achebe brilliantly imagines the lives of three generations of an African community as their world is upended by the forces of colonialism from the first arrival of the British to the waning days of empire.＜/p＞＜p＞The trilogy opens with the groundbreaking ＜em＞Things Fall Apart＜/em＞, the tale of Okonkwo, a hero in his village, whose clashes with missionaries--coupled with his own tragic pride--lead to his fall from grace. ＜em＞Arrow of God＜/em＞ takes up the ongoing conflict between continuity and change as Ezeulu, the headstrong chief priest, finds his authority is under threat from rivals and colonial functionaries. But he believes himself to be untouchable and is determined to lead his people, even if it is towards their own destruction. Finally, in ＜em＞No Longer at Ease＜/em＞, Okonkwo's grandson, educated in England, returns to a civil-service job in Lagos, only to see his morality erode as he clings to his membership in the ruling elite.＜/p＞＜p＞Drawing on the traditional Igbo tales of Achebe's youth, ＜em＞The African Trilogy＜/em＞ is a literary landmark, a mythic and universal tale of modern Africa. As Toni Morrison wrote, "African literature is incomplete and unthinkable without the works of Chinua Achebe. For passion, intellect and crystalline prose, he is unsurpassed."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,123円

Love and Marriage in Africa in the Novels of Elechi Amadi, Buchi Emecheta and Chinua Achebe【電子書籍】[ Dr. Richa Jha ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The theme of love and marriage in literature is perhaps as old as literature itself. Works of literature across borders and genres have worked around these twin themes to give us some of the most memorable tales, yet they appear quite neglected by the critics when making a study of African literature. The world of literary criticism has witnessed a newfound interest in the African continent, which had for a long time been suffering in ignominious darkness, yet the majority of critical study is still focused on postcolonial themes and human relationships have largely been ignored. The white man’s perception and portrayal of Africa as a land of savages, devoid of finer emotions, could be a major influence in this regard. This study strives to prove that the Africans have always had a rich history and culture of interpersonal relationships and the twin themes of love and marriage run across their literature, justifying their claim to being as capable of harboring finer emotions as any other civilization of the world. The novels under study in this research work present the importance of love in various aspects like the man-woman relationship, parent-child relationship and an individual’s love for his native land. Various types of matrimonial alliances, with the different aspects of an African marriage, such as settling of marriage, settlement and payment of the bride price, gender equations, polygamy, widow remarriage etc., have all been studied in the backdrop of the three novels taken under consideration. This research work, based on the novels of Elechi Amadi, Buchi Emecheta and Chinua Achebe, studies the representation of love and marriage in African literature as an important and recurrent theme that touches upon other aspects of the society like class division, human relationships, social beliefs, myths, superstition and most importantly, the gender perspectives.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	567円
Uncommon Law of Learned Writing 2.0【電子書籍】[ Chinua Asuzu ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞As lawyers, we must not, in hot pursuit of common law, outrun common sense. The dread of that eventuality prompted this book. ＜em＞＜strong＞Uncommon Law of Learned Writing 2.0＜/strong＞＜/em＞ promotes common sense in legal language. Plain language, which is commonsensical, broadens access to legal documents, thus democratizing the law.＜/p＞＜p＞If democracy is government of the people, by the people, and for the people, law is the language in which government interacts with the peopleーit’s the language of democracy. The people whose government speaks through law must understand what is said. No democratic society should brook legaleseーa dense, verbose dialect known only to lawyers.＜/p＞＜p＞What then should society do to redress the lawyer-induced obscurity? A Shakespearean character had an alarming proposal: “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” Apparently, that proposal was not enthusiastically endorsed, which explains why we’re still here. A milder remedyーenrolling lawyers in language classesーhas been mooted, which explains why this book is in your hands.＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞＜strong＞Uncommon Law of Learned Writing 2.0＜/strong＞＜/em＞ motivates lawyers to prefer plain language to the legalese and verbosity that have besmirched legal writing for centuries. This book is as sweeping and authoritative a treatment of its subject as you can find anywhere.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	452円

Arrow of God【電子書籍】[ Chinua Achebe ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞"My favorite novel." ーChimamanda Ngozi Adichie＜/p＞＜p＞“A magical writerーone of the greatest of the twentieth century.” ーMargaret Atwood＜/p＞＜p＞“African literature is incomplete and unthinkable without the works of Chinua Achebe.” ーToni Morrison＜/p＞＜p＞The second novel in Chinua Achebe’s masterful African trilogy, following ＜em＞Things Fall Apart＜/em＞ and preceding ＜em＞No Longer at Ease＜/em＞＜/p＞＜p＞When ＜em＞Things Fall Apart＜/em＞ ends, colonial rule has been introduced to Umuofia, and the character of the nation, its values, freedoms, religious and socio-political foundations have substantially and irrevocably been altered. ＜em＞Arrow of God,＜/em＞ the second novel in Chinua Achebe’s ＜em＞The＜/em＞＜em＞African Trilogy＜/em＞, moves the historical narrative forward. This time, the action revolves around Ezeulu, the headstrong chief priest of the god Ulu, which is worshipped by the six villages of Umuaro. The novel is a meditation on the nature, uses, and responsibility of power and leadership. Ezeulu finds that his authority is increasingly under threat from rivals within his nation and functionaries of the newly established British colonial government. Yet he sees himself as untouchable. He is forced, with tragic consequences, to reconcile conflicting impulses in his own natureーa need to serve the protecting deity of his Umuaro people; a desire to retain control over their religious observances; and a need to gain increased personal power by pushing his authority to the limits. He ultimately fails as he leads his people to their own destruction, and consequently, his personal tragedy arises. ＜em＞Arrow of God＜/em＞ is an unforgettable portrayal of the loss of faith, and the downfall of a man in a society forever altered by colonialism.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,623円
Chinua Achebe and the Politics of Narration Envisioning Language【電子書籍】[ Thomas Jay Lynn ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book examines vital intersections of narration, linguistic innovation, and political insight that distinguish Chinua Achebe’s fiction as well as his non-fiction commentaries. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of these intersections: Achebe’s narrative response to Western authors who have written on Africa, his integration of Igbo folklore, the political implications of writing African literature in English, his use of Nigerian Pidgin, and the Nigerian Civil War. It also addresses the teaching of Achebe’s works. Achebe drew on diverse resources to offer searching psychological and political insights that contribute not only a decidedly African political viewpoint to the modern novel, but also a more inclusive narrative consciousness. Achebe’s adaptations of Igbo oral art are intrinsic to his writing’s political engagement because they assert the integrity and authority of the African voice in a global order defined by colonialism. This book reveals how his work has helpedto restructure a global vision of Africa.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	10,331円
EUROCENTRISM AND COUNTERFACTUALIZATION IN TWO NOVELS OF AFRICA: A Study of Joyce Cary’s Mister Johnson and Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart【電子書籍】[ Victoria Oladiran ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In the early 20th century, the progressively mechanized character of European culture was contrasted with the traditional farming, fishing and herding society being newly conquered and colonized by Europe such as America, most of Africa and later the pacific and Australia. Many European writers of this time construed the history of Europe as paradigmatic for the rest of the world. Other cultures were identified as having reached a stage through which Europe itself had already passed-primitive; hunter; gatherers; farming; early civilization; feudalism and modern liberal-capitalism. Only Europe was considered to have achieved the last stage.＜br /＞ The advancement of western education in Africa however ushered Africans into the realization that literature is a tool that builds the ideology, perception and believe system of the world about a people or culture. It therefore became imminent that the few educated Africans, as at that time, take the portrayal of Africa, by non-Africans, serious. This book analyzes two novels about Africa: Joyce Cary’s Mister Johnson and Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart showing the perception of Nigeria by a European (Joyce Cary) and how Chinua Achebe (a Nigerian) tries to refute these notions.＜br /＞ This book further highlighted how Africans, using literature as an arsenal, have been able to counter, re-write, and refute the Eurocentric view that Africa is culture-less, barbaric, uncivilized and backwards.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	400円

The Problematics of Writing Back to the Imperial Centre Joseph Conrad, Chinua Achebe and V. S. Naipaul in Conversation【電子書籍】[ Nabil Baazizi ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In the wake of decolonization, colonialist narratives have systematically been rewritten from indigenous perspectives. This phenomenon is referred to as "the Empire writes back to the centre"ーa trend that asserted itself in late twentieth-century postcolonial criticism. The aim of such acts of writing back is to read colonialist texts in a Barthesian way inside-out or ＜em＞? l’envers＜/em＞, to deconstruct the Orientalist and colonialist dogmas, and eventually create a dialogue where there was only a monologue. Turning the colonial text inside-out and rereading it through the lens of a later code allows the postcolonial text to unlock the closures of its colonial precursor and change it from the inside. Under this critical scholarship, Joseph Conrad’s ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞ (1899) has been a particularly influential text for Chinua Achebe and V. S. Naipaul. Their novels ＜em＞Things Fall Apart＜/em＞ (1958) and ＜em＞A Bend in the River＜/em＞ (1979) can be seen as a rewriting of Conrad’s novella. However, before examining their different rewriting strategies, it would be fruitful to locate them within the postcolonial tradition of rewriting. While Achebe clearly stands as the leading figure of the movement, the Trinidadian novelist is, in fact, difficult to pigeonhole. Does Naipaul write back to, that is criticize, or does he rewrite, and in a way adopt and justify, imperial ideology? Since not all rewriting involves writing back in terms of anti-colonial critique, Naipaul’s position continues to be explored as the enigmatic in-betweenness and double-edgedness of an "insider" turned "outsider." Taking cognizance of these different critical perceptions can become a way to effectively highlight Achebe’s "(mis)-reading" and Naipaul’s "(mis)-appropriation" of Conrad, a way to set the framework for the simulated conversation this book seeks to create between the three novelists.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	11,810円
An Analysis of Chinua Achebe's An Image of Africa Racism in Conrad's Heart of Darkness【電子書籍】[ Clare Clarke ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Few works of scholarship have so comprehensively recast an existing debate as Chinua Achebe’s essay on Joseph Conrad's ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞. Achebe ? a highly distinguished Nigerian novelist and university teacher ? looked with fresh eyes at a novel that was set in Africa, but in which Africans appear only as onlookers or as indistinguishable "savages". Dismissing the prevailing portrayal of Joseph Conrad as a liberal hero whose anti-imperialist views insulated him from significant criticism, Achebe re-cast the Polish author as a "bloody racist" in an analysis so cogent it changed the way in which his discipline looked not only at Conrad, but also at all works with settings indicative of racial conflict.＜/p＞＜p＞The creative contribution of Achebe’s essay lies in delving far beneath the surface of Conrad’s novel; he not only generated new and highly influential hypotheses about the author's modes of thought and motivations, but also redefined the entire debate over ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞. Just because the novel had been accepted into the "canon", and now falls into the class of “permanent literature”, Achebe says, does not mean we should not question it closely ? or criticize its author.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,228円

Kindred Spirits Chinua Achebe and Toni Morrison【電子書籍】[ Professor Christopher N. Okonkwo, Ph.D ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Winner of the 2022 College Language Association Book Prize＜/p＞＜p＞Nigerian novelist Chinua Achebeーauthor of ＜em＞Things Fall Apart,＜/em＞ one of the towering works of twentieth-century fictionーis considered the father of modern African literature. The equally revered Toni Morrison, author of masterworks such as ＜em＞Beloved＜/em＞ and one of only four Americans to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature in the past half-century, acknowledged African literature’s and Achebe’s influence on her own work. Until now, however, there has been no book that focuses on and critically explores the rich connections between these two writers.＜/p＞＜p＞In ＜em＞Kindred Spirits,＜/em＞ Christopher Okonkwo offers the first comparative study of Morrison and Achebe.

Basden( Among the Igbos of Southern Nigeria) that the Igbos are deeply religious and culturally rooted people who ardently revere their ancestors and respect their elders coupled with the well-researched views of historians like J.B.K.Onwubiko( The History of West Africa) that though the Igbos are politically nay ideologically speaking republican oriented, they allow themselves to be led and governed by elders and village heads, recent findings based chiefly on lived experiences of the modern Igbo mainstream Society tend to suggest that the Igbos are notorious for castigating, insulting, assaulting, disrespecting and dishonoring their elders, their opinion leaders, their religious leaders, their parents, their seniors, their teachers, their village heads, their titled men and women and their traditional leaders. The modern Igbo man prides himself as a know-it-all, I-too-know and imposing type of person. He tends to verbally, psychologically and physically bully others.
