Achebe the Orator
Author: Chinwe OkechukwuPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313075360
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
Taken together, Chinua Achebe's five novels--Things Fall Apart (1958), No Longer at Ease (1960), A Man of the People (1966), Arrow of God (1967), and Anthills of the Savannah (1988)--encompass the entire social, historical, and political experiences of Nigeria, from precolonial times to the close of the 20th century. Central to these experiences is the clash of Igbo culture with the ways of the West. The novels show a society that has been fragmented and a people who are striving to reconstruct a world that they lost during their encounter with colonialism. Achebe has stated that his main purpose for writing is to reveal the truth about his people and their culture. This book examines his use of rhetoric to accomplish that objective. Achebe's writings are fraught with rhetorical devices, and he has harnessed the power of oratory to show how his society has responded to the African colonial encounter and its aftermath. He uses oratory and rhetoric to both educate and persuade his readers and to delineate his characters. Because of the central role of language in his novels, his writings illustrate the nature of discourse among the Igbo as well as the larger Nigerian community. This volume presents a broad overview of rhetoric throughout Achebe's works and demonstrates how he uses the novel genre for persuasive purposes.
Eloquent Wisdom
Author: Mark ClavierPublisher: Brepols Publishers
ISBN: 9782503552651
Category : Theology, Doctrinal
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Augustine of Hippo employed delight within his theology in ways unprecedented in Christian thought. It underpins his approach to creation, redemption, the Christian ministry and the inner conflict between desire and the will. Moreover, his understanding of delight would make an enormous impact on the shape of monastic theology in the Latin West. Clavier provides an in-depth historical and theological study of the nature and role of delight in Augustine's theology. He demonstrates that Cicero's rhetorical ideal led Augustine to conceive of GOd as an eloquent orator who persuades people to turn toward salvation through an outpouring of eloquent delight with the heart's reception of the Holy Spirit. His close identification of delight with the Holy Spirit laid the ground for the affective turn in western medieval theology and its understanding of contemplative reading as a participative process of ascent to God. --Book cover.
