Auteure: Daria Tunca

Nombre de pages: 216

Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (b. 1977) is undoubtedly one of the most widely acclaimed African writers of the twenty-first century. Best known for her insightful fiction, viral TED talks, and essays on feminism, she is also an outspoken intellectual. As she puts it in an interview with Lia Grainger, in her characteristically straightforward style: “I have things to say and I’ll say them.” Conversations with Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is the first collection of interviews with the writer. Covering fifteen years of conversations, the interviews start with the publication of Adichie’s first novel, Purple Hibiscus (2003), and end in late 2018, by which time Adichie had become one of the most prominent figures on the international literary scene. As both scholars and passionate readers of the author’s work are bound to find out, the opinions shared by Adichie in interviews over the years coalesce into a fascinating portrait that presents both abiding features and gradual transformations. Reflecting the political and emotional scope of Adichie’s work, the conversations contained in this volume cover a wide range of topics, including colonialism, race, immigration,...

Acculturation, Otherness, and Return in Adichie’s Americanah

Acculturation, Otherness, and Return in Adichie’s Americanah

Auteure: Soheila Arabian , Vida Rahiminezhad

Nombre de pages: 115

The idea of “diaspora” is an everyday concept for many people around the world who have left their homeland voluntarily or by force with the hope of making a new home in another place. In recent years, academics have used this term to reference conflating categories such as immigrants, ethnic and racial minorities, and refugees. This book examines the concepts of diaspora in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah (2013). Americanah tells the story of a smart young girl named Ifemelu who leaves Nigeria for America in search of higher education. In America, she faces several problems before graduating from college. This book investigates Americanah through diasporic concepts such as self and Otherness, acculturation, cultural diversity, hybridity, ambivalence and mimicry, unbelonging and return.

Quicklet on TED Talks: Chimamanda Adichie: The danger of a single story (CliffNotes-like Summary)

Quicklet on TED Talks: Chimamanda Adichie: The danger of a single story (CliffNotes-like Summary)

Auteure: Karen Lac

Nombre de pages: 31

ABOUT THE BOOK At first glance, it would not seem that I, someone who was born in the United States and has never been to Africa, would have anything in common with a woman from Nigeria. My exposure to Nigeria is so limited that I am largely unable to distinguish it from the rest of the continent, as if there is a singular African culture and experience. Like many Americans, what I know of Africa largely comes from the news media. This means that when I think of Africa, I usually think of wars, refugee camps, abject poverty, diseases, and corruption. With the exception of having beautiful wildlife and landscape, Africa to me simply represented a place of general misery. This is the result of being exposed to only a single story. As Nigerian writer Chimamanda Adichie points out in her TED talk, “The danger of a single story,” there is never a single story. Her own life is a testament to the fact that Africa is not just what we see on the news. MEET THE AUTHOR Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Karen Lac has been writing since 1999. Her articles have appeared in print in “The Occidental Weekly.” Her writing reflects her broad interests. She writes travel, entertainment,...

The thing around your neck by Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie. A feminist critical perspective

"The thing around your neck" by Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie. A feminist critical perspective

Nombre de pages: 11

Essay from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2, Klagenfurt University (Anglizistik), course: Literary studies, language: English, abstract: This paper will focus on the female characters in Chimamanda Ngozi's short story "The Thing on Your Neck" written in a gender-suppressing manner. The paper will portray the role of women in a patriarchal society. The paper will also analyze the sexism in the story to analyze how African women are portrayed and treated. The story of Chimamanda Ngozi consists of Akuna who represent the marginalization, victimization, and alienation of a Nigerian woman in America. By interpreting them in the circumstances of feminist criticism, the marginalization of female roles will be at the forefront. The stories include topics such as domestic violence, tolerance, loyalty, national identity, and self-realization related to female roles. The short story "Things Around Your Neck" includes various feminine symbols that show signs of resistance to deprivation of power. For instance, Akuna left her uncle's house after being sexually harassed.

Chère Ijeawele, ou un manifeste pour une éducation féministe

Chère Ijeawele, ou un manifeste pour une éducation féministe

Auteure: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Nombre de pages: 37

"Je suis convaincue de l’urgence morale qu’il y a à nous atteler à imaginer ensemble une éducation différente pour nos enfants, pour tenter de créer un monde plus juste à l’égard des femmes et des hommes." À une amie qui lui demande quelques conseils pour élever selon les règles de l’art du féminisme la petite fille qu’elle vient de mettre au monde, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie répond sous la forme d’une missive enjouée, non dénuée d’ironie, qui prend vite la tournure d’un manifeste. L’écrivain nigériane examine les situations concrètes qui se présentent aux parents d’une petite fille et explique comment déjouer les pièges que nous tend le sexisme, à travers des exemples tirés de sa propre expérience. Cette lettre manifeste s’adresse à tous : aux hommes comme aux femmes, aux parents en devenir, à l’enfant qui subsiste en nous et qui s’interroge sur l’éducation qu’il a reçue. Chacun y trouvera les clés d’une ligne de conduite féministe, qui consiste à croire en la pleine égalité des sexes et à l’encourager. Grand Prix de l'Héroïne Madame Figaro.

"Partout dans le monde, la question du genre est cruciale. Alors j’aimerais aujourd’hui que nous nous mettions à rêver à un monde différent et à le préparer. Un monde plus équitable. Un monde où les hommes et les femmes seront plus heureux et plus honnêtes envers eux-mêmes. Et voici le point de départ : nous devons élever nos filles autrement. Nous devons élever nos fils autrement." Dans ces deux discours, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie porte une voix, rare et puissante, d’émancipation.

A New Generation of African Writers

A New Generation of African Writers

Auteure: Brenda Cooper

Nombre de pages: 200

Brenda Cooper examines the work of the new generation of African writers who have placed migration as central to their writing. There is a new interest among publishers in New York and London in books by writers of African origin. These authors have often grown up or passed their early adult years out of Africa. The Orange Prize for Fiction was awarded inLondon 2007 to Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie's Half of a Yellow Sun, and the Caine Prize for African Writing has introduced new writers such as Leila Aboulela, Biyi Bandele and Chimamanda Adichie herself to agents and publishers. This examination of the extraordinary work which has recently appeared is therefore very timely. Migration is a central theme of much African fiction written in English. Here, Brenda Cooper tracks the journeys undertakenby a new generation of African writers, their protagonists and the solid objects that populate their fiction, to depict the material realities of their multiple worlds and languages. The book explores the uses to which the Englishlanguage is put in order to understand these worlds. It demonstrates how these writers have contested the dominance of colonising metaphors. The writers' challenge is ...

Transnational Women's Fiction

Transnational Women's Fiction

Auteure: Susan Strehle

Nombre de pages: 240

"Drawing together feminist and postcolonial theories, Susan Strehle links domestic practices and imperial projects. She advances a new view of home and homeland as intertwined hierarchical spaces exploiting people of unprivileged gender, race, class, religion, and ethnicity. Close readings of the six novels engage transnational women's fiction that unsettles home and dispels the sentimental narrative of homeland. In crossing traditional disciplinary boundaries, this book attempts to unsettle and renew."--BOOK JACKET.
