Abstract:

When examining the topic of multilingualism, Nigeria emerges as a captivating subject due to its renowned linguistic diversity. Authors who have a bicultural background encompassing African and European-language cultures consistently exhibited a type of hybridity in their use of the colonial language. Consequently, a unique European linguistic variation emerged as a result of this. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie demonstrates a strong inclination to transcend the extensive language debates prevalent in the history of African literature.What is more, she asserts her use of English and her interjection

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, renowned for her compelling literary works, intricately weaves a narrative tapestry that explores the multifaceted dimensions of feminism, gender complexities, and the profound psychological landscapes of her female protagonists. Across the historical spectrum from the era of colonization to the contemporary zeitgeist, Adichie's narratives serve as poignant reflections of the intricate challenges women face navigating patriarchal societies. Central to Adichie's thematic exploration is the pervasive presence of violence against women, which she vividly depicts across v

Abstract:

Famous Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie believes that the role of literature is to instruct and delight. Her realist literary creation focuses on Nigeria’s post-colonial cultural and political reconstruction, as well as race, gender and class in a cross-cultural context, which reflects her Igbo, Nigerian and African “sensibility” and a certain cosmopolitan stance. The present article comprehensively investigates Adichie’s views on literature, creative practice and the dissemination and acceptance of her works to achieve an in-depth understanding of the writer.

Abstract:

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s maiden novel is a piece that explores the patriarchal attitude within the familial construction, due to the Western influence, in postcolonial Nigeria. Adichie combines the political situation of society with traces of the European attitude blended in the Nigerian society after independence. The paper attempts to highlight the patriarchal attitude of the central character Eugene Achike, which soundly affects the mental health of his family members. The paper further focuses on the Western mindset of Eugene, disguised in the name of culture and knowledge.

Since one of the primary concerns of stylistics is to explain the underlying motive of an author’s linguistic choices, the paper discusses Adichie’s choice of the lexical item silence in varied derivative forms (noun, adverb, adjective and verb), the use of its synonym and its incorporation into sentence structures (parallelism).

This is a major theme that has perplexingly received such minor scholarly interest, despite its extensive incorporations in Adichie’s storytelling and her signaling, in part through her 2009 TED Talk “The Danger of a Single Story,” that it is one of the cornerstones of her world and works.

Drawing on critical insights from body politics, especially Elaine Scarry's concept of conscious body, Michel Foucault's notion of body discipline and Elizabeth Grosz's phenomenological reading of lived bodies, the analysis explores how the protagonist Adichie chal

Though the events of the Biafra War constitute the central theme in Half of a Yellow Sun, Adichie also deals with the relationships among social classes in this novel.

Based on a close reading of the text, the essay argues that an analysis of the novel’s use of speech and thought presentation may contribute to the assessment of the main character’s evolving ideological stance.

Abstract:

This paper examines the making of a ‘new man’ character in Adichie’s Americanah and discusses how such a moulded man integrates himself in society and deals with other gendered worlds. The discussion shows how much Adichie in the representation of ‘new man’ character in her novel rejects the naturalisation of the unchangeability of the male subject by dramatizing how much the male’s enactment of masculine-self is contingent to the orientation one gets. In this paper, I establish that that Adichie’s representation of progressive ‘new man’ character in her novel does not only serve as a role mod

Abstract:

Research in Corpus Linguistics has provided insights into the literary meanings of texts over the past few decades. Building on this foundation, this study aims to enhance the understanding of literary texts by employing corpus tools to analyze the methods of characterisation in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie&rsquo;s novel, Americanah (2013). Specifically, it uses both quantitative and qualitative methods to examine the themes and characters in the novel, illuminating the author&rsquo;s ideas and style.

Abstract:

Many African countries have been disposed to colonialism and its consequences on their livelihoods. Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Adichie Ngozi sets the scene for a long battle well known as the Biafran civil war between the Igbo tribe and its counterpart, the Hausa tribe. For two years, both ethnic tribes fought for leadership and dominance, land and its accompanying resources. This ensued into poverty, diaspora, loss of identity, identity reformation, and the deaths of countless Civilians and soldiers. This paper is an attempt to analyse Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's, Half of a Yellow Sun

Abstract:

The classical piece Half of a Yellow Sun, composed by Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie garners critical acclaim. Post-colonial perspectives such as diaspora, identity, and history have gained popularity among scholars; however, more comprehensive research is required. Grounded on post-colonial theory, this article attempts to present the dilemma of the “other” from the perspective of race and ethnicity and examines how the “other” resists and constructs their space for survival within the colonial discourse. Evidence suggests that Adichie, as the black and the Igbo, delineates the dile

Abstract:

O presente artigo pretende evidenciar através do romance Americanah (2013), da nigeriana Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, de qual forma um elemento formador da identidade: o cabelo, é docilizado para que a adaptação da protagonista, uma mulher negra, africana e imigrante, possa ocorrer na sociedade americana. Para tanto, utilizamos as ideias de autores pós-coloniais acerca do que foi o colonialismo e como ele se atualiza sob o termo neocolonial. Também discutimos como o romance corrobora a crítica pós-colonial, aqui entendida como as teorias que denunciam os problemas causados pelo colonialismo nas s

Abstract:

A semiótica é considerada como o estudo das representações. Inicialmente, os seus estudos foram desenvolvidos pelo americano Pierce e ganhou uma nova aplicabilidade com Saussure. Com base nestes estudos, Lotman, um estudioso da Escola de Tártu-Moscou, consolidou os estudos da semiótica da cultura, relacionando-os com o contexto social. Como objetivo deste trabalho, tem-se a aplicabilidade das concepções da semiótica da cultura em dois trechos da obra “Americanah”, da escritora nigeriana Chimananda Ngozi Adichie.
