Chinua Achebe's "A Man For The People"
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Nigerian existence may have been significantly oppressive under the rule of British imperialism; however, the struggles that Africans faced after this rule had been eliminated served to more defiantly strengthen their quest for independence. In Chinua Achebe's critic of African politics in "A Man For The People," the fictional account becomes alarmingly lifelike, inasmuch as the coup that ultimately overthrows Nanga's system of abuse eerily and directly mirrors the real-life coup that takes place in 1966. No additional sources cited.

Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart": Tragic Hero
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. As the protagonist of Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart," Okonkwo ultimately ends up as the tragic hero as a direct result of his inability to alter the course of his life. Defining this particular concept calls for one's close interpretation of what the protagonist's role truly represents; with that, it becomes quite simple to understand how the lead character can so easily slip into the tragic state he eventually inhabits. Through his difficult and sometimes life-changing experiences, Okonkwo comes to recognize what it is his own self-knowledge has gained through his struggles. No additional sources cited.

Chinua Achebe’s “Things Fall Apart” and a Revaluation of Values
[ send me this essay ]
This 7 page report discusses Chinua Achebe’s 1958
novel about a village in pre-colonial Nigeria. The concept of
things falling apart in “Things Fall Apart” comes from the
many ways in which the life of the main character, Okonkwo,
changes in ways he is powerless to understand. “Things” are
simply not the way Okonkwo believes they should be and they
certainly are not the way they were in the “good ol’ days.”

Chivalry in Ivanhoe.
[ send me this essay ]
(5 pp) Whenever we think of the word "chivalry,"
it is either in the context of "being dead"-not a
pretty thought, or we think of knights and damsels
in distress, waiting to be rescued by said knight.
In its most positive sense, the word conjures
other times of gentility and good manners. Walter
Scott's 1719 novel Ivanhoe is certainly a basic
place to start if one wants to know more about the
ideas and actions of chivalry.
