Postcolonial Analysis Of 'Things Fall Apart'
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. Perhaps these particular peoples were not ready to be free of what were deemed as religious constraints to which they so readily adhered. Perhaps the European's believed that it was not necessary for the village of Umuofia to secure its heritage by way of political, governmental and familial implications. The fact is this: What existed before the uninvited European visitors planted their foreign feet upon Umuofia's ground was never the same once colonization occurred. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Sociological Concepts in Things Fall Apart
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that analyzes Chinua Achebe's novel Things Fall Apart (1959). The writer argues that this work can be viewed as a comprehensive sociological study of Nigerian Igbo culture. Okonkwo, Achebe's protagonist, is a member of this tribe and is considered the quintessential embodiment of its militaristic ideals. As this fact suggests, examination of this novel, its plot and characterizations, conveys to the reader a great deal of sociological detail about this Nigerian people. This examination shows how Achebe tells Okonkwo's story against the backdrop of his own culture and worldview, which includes sociological information on the many areas. These include the militaristic ethos of the Igbo tribe; the Igbo orientation towards women; religious orientation; xenophobic reaction to "others" outside their tribe; and the encroaching influence of British colonialism. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
