Abstract
nThe study focuses on the post-colonial aspects of Chinua Achebe’s famous work “Things Fall Apart.” The story develops as a delicate analysis of the colonial encounter, revealing insights into its profound effect on Igbo society in the backdrop of British colonization in Nigeria. The research navigates the intricate web of postcolonial issues such as cultural clash, identity negotiation, and resistance. Achebe’s depiction of Igbo traditions serves as a lens through which the complexity of postcolonial discourse is investigated, challenging Eurocentric paradigms. The statement declares that the materialistic demands of humans should not come at the expense of the degradation of nature. Criticism of the Environment Through the prism of post-colonialism, we may examine more closely the causes of the cultural and environmental destruction perpetrated by White rulers under the guise of progress and development. The impact of colonialism on human and non-human entities is realistically and accurately shown in Chinua Achebe’s 1958 novel Things Fall Apart. The study makes the characters’ roles in reflecting post-colonial issues, Achebe’s narrative tactics, and the novel’s broader effect on post-colonial literature. As “Things Fall Apart” is still an important work in the postcolonial canon, this study helps to a better understanding of it. The aim of this study is to investigate how the colonial rulers of Africa took use of the distinct culture and environment of the continent. By closely examining Things Fall Apart, it would also draw comparisons between pre-colonial African society and colonized Africa, as well as the changes brought about by the imperial establishments.
