Abstract:
Abstract Identity, as discussed in this paper, is seen as a phenomenon which is constantly changing under certain circumstances. From empirical point of view, the identity of man is influenced by the environment through experience and unconscious socialization; it is continually modified by the individual’s encounter with the world. The aim of this work is to analyse the intricacies involved in understanding the situation and mentality of the Igbos as far as identity is concerned and to determine how this hampers or helps in the development of the Igbo/African society.

This paper has studied the philosophical operative conditions of healing shrines in Igbo-African societies. The concept of philosophical operative condition is introduced into the study of Igbo-African healing shrines with the purpose of pointing out the philosophical principles behind the activities in these shrines. This philosophical dimension of African healing shrines is possible because of the nature of the relationship between religion and philosophy. This work, therefore, studied healing and healers in traditional African societies and the place and nature of healing shrines in Igbo so

Abstract:
AbstractThe literature of ethnicity in Africa indicates a major role for Christian missionaries in the creation of languages in Africa. It has been argued that certain African ethnic groups owe their existence to the ‘invention’ of their language by missionaries who created a written dialect—based on one or more vernacular(s)—into which they translated the Bible. This language came to be used for education in mission schools and later also in government schools. The Bible dialect consequently became the accepted standard language of the ethnic group and acquired the function of one of the grou

Abstract:
The African continent today is laced with some of the most intractable conflicts, most of them based on ethnic nationalism. More often than not, this has led to poor governance, unequal distribution of resources, state collapse, high attrition of human resources, economic decline, and inter-ethnic clashes. This essay seeks to examine Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's through the lens of ethnic conflict. It begins by tracing the history and manifestations of ethnic stereotypes and ethnic cleavage in African imaginaries. The essay then argues that group loyalty in Nigeria led to the creation of 'biafra

There are many customs and traditions that have effectively given the Igbo of Southeastern Nigeria group identity and social cohesion. And the kola nut is one of those realities. However, it is not only the Igbo that cherish and reverence the kola nut. In fact, kola nut is a highly prized fruit among the people of West Africa where its importance is seen in the social and religious customs of the people. But the Igbo lay special claim to kola nut and view it as the king of all fruits on earth because of the roles it play; hence, the kola is seen among the Igbo as a symbol of acceptance, cooper

Abstract:
The climate of thought regarding beauty characterization among Africans and other people of colour portrays the large body as beautiful. This reflects that body size and beauty is racially and culturally expressive, making it apposite to be disparate in advancing related discourses. This is particularly important because such discourses can influence Africans’ evaluation of their self-worth. The concerns generated by the global rise in obesity further create interest in these issues. African literature offers a fine and disparate platform to understand social realities.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter explores the mindset humanity needs to develop in preparation for an emerging future, from an African perspective. The required human consciousness must be holistic and encompassing, bridging the gap between thought and action, linking the past to the present and the future, democratizing access to resources, eliminating waste and fostering regeneration. One opportunity in view is leveraging the power of emerging twenty-first-century technology, specifically blockchain-based decentralized financial (De-Fi) networks, because of their potential to build a global community where trust is once more a currency and where we can rely on humanity to do good for each other and for the planet. We need to design solutions and approaches that enable all persons, especially those marginalized in emerging economies, to find their voices and fulfil their aspirations. The author makes a strong case for combining past wisdom with contemporary know-how to create a new future that is more inclusive and equitable. Drawing on African traditional philosophy and practices, learning from Ubuntu and the Igbo people, she explores the balance between individual rights and communal values. The chapter also offers insights into the SevenPillars® framework that allows business interests, private and public, to thrive whilst safeguarding our natural ecosystem and upholding human dignity and equity.

Abstract:
Chapter 3 highlights by means of archival data the negative images of Africa and Africans found scattered in the literature of colonial psychiatry. The chapter draws on archaeological evidence from Thurstan Shaw’s finds at Igbo-Ukwu, Nigeria, to challenge the unfounded disparaging portraits of Africans and their cultures advanced by so-called professional scientists in the field of psychiatry, the aim of which was to poison the world’s opinion against Africa and its peoples. Drawing again from Shaw’s data and other confirmatory evidence found in other parts of Africa, such as the artistic style of uShaka Marine Resort in Durban, South Africa, the chapter demonstrates that African peoples are one and share a holistic, sociocentric, interdependent ontology; a curvilinear worldview; and a great civilization from the past. The chapter illustrates that African archaeology is a key intellectual tradition for the scientific study of African psychology.

Full text
Abstract:
Analyzing Chinua Achebe’s tetralogy of novels, this chapter shows how Achebe addresses one of the central issues of both modernism and postcolonialism: the organization and conceptualization of time. Things Fall Apart (1958) and No Longer at Ease (1960) present snapshot moments of arrested temporality that Achebe treats with the modernist techniques of imagism and epiphany. Taking a more pessimistic turn, Arrow of God (1964) grounds the handling of sequentiality not in Igbo ideas of cyclical change but in Spenglerian, Yeatsian, and Eliotic notions of apocalypse, in which endings do not mark new beginnings but a point of terminal cessation. Finally, Man of the People (1966) further modifies this version of time, replacing the cultural collapse of the previous novel with the more affirmative vision of community and village life found in Eliot’s “East Coker.” In sum, the chapter traces the tetralogy’s evolution of divergent and competing notions of time, especially as they relate to Igboland and more generally to postcolonialism.

Abstract:
This essay traces the change in focus from beur literature in the 1980s to urban literature in the 1990s onwards. Whereas beur literature showed characters torn between their original culture and their adopted culture, urban literature presents characters claiming and asserting their belonging to France and refusing to be confined to racist stereotypes. Relying on a collection of short stories entitled Chroniques d’une société annoncée published in 2005 by a group of writers named Qui Fait la France?, Puig shows how the short stories give fresh and different representations of people living in the banlieue.
