Surveying a broad range of authors and texts, the book shows how these fictionalized representations of Nigeria reveal authentic perceptions of Nigeria’s history and culture today. Many of the lessons in these works of literature provide cautionary tales and critiques of Nigeria, as well as an examination of the lasting impact of colonialism. Furthermore, the book presents the nation as both the framework and subject of its narrative. By conducting literary analyses of Nigerian fiction with historical reference points, this work demonstrates how Nigerian literature can convey profound themes and knowledge that resonates with audiences, teaching Nigerians and non-Nigerians about the colonial and postcolonial experience. The chapters cover topics on nationhood, women’s writing, postcolonial modernity, and Nigerian literature in the digital age.. | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | 关键词 | Novel; Literature and Postcolonial Studies; Fiction; Nigerian culture; Nation-building; Colony; Nationalit | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-01991-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-01993-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-01991-3Series ISSN 2634-5773 Series E-ISSN 2634-5781 | issn_series | 2634-5773 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
