My free life began on the third of September, 1838. On the morning of the fourth of that month, after an anxious and most perilo

us but safe journey, I found myself in the big city of New York, a free man—one more added to the mighty throng which, like the confused waves of the troubled sea, surged to and fro between the lofty walls of Broadway. Though dazzled with the wonders which met me on every hand, my thoughts could not be much withdrawn from my strange situation. For the moment, the dreams of my youth and the hopes of my manhood were completely fulfilled. The bonds that had held me to "old master" were broken. No man now had a right to call me his slave or assert mastery over me.
–from My Bondage and My Freedom by Frederick Douglass

Both the war magic of Umuofia and the market magic of Umuike are personified as old women. Why do you suppose this is?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

In the novel, Things Fall Apart by the African legendary author and professor of Literature, Chinua Achebe, The war magic of Umuofia and the market magic of Umuike are personified as old women.

The reason for such personification is that these spirits behind the markets which are actually great and quite powerful wished to disguise themselves in order to be perceived as being weak and frail by the people who doubt them.
