The novel describes the traditional ways of life of the Ibo (or Igbo), with its religion, its proverbs, its laws, its rituals, its family and social structure ... The protagonist, Okonkwo, is a warrior from the town of Umuofia, a man characterized by action and strength rather than by reflection and prudence. Contrary to show any form of affection, which considers a weakness, governs his family with a firm hand and aspires to become one of the leaders of the clan. However, Okonkwo is expelled from the clan for seven years for offending the spirits, and when he returns, after the deadline, the white man has installed in the village the first Christian missions, and nothing will be the same.
The novel shows us a sexist tribal society, superstitious, rigid and capable of cruelly treating its members, even the most defenseless. But what comes with the arrival of the white man is not at all better: religious fanaticism, legal arbitrariness, corruption, repression or even genocide ... Hence the final irony of the narrator, when he says that one of the European officials are writing a book entitled “The pacification of the primitive tribes of Lower Niger”, in which undoubtedly present the natives as savages who needed to be civilized (with the cross and the shotgun in equal parts).
Achebe has portrayed the process of destruction of traditional ways of life and power at the hands of colonialism. In other novels, such as “A Man of the People”, he has told, with the same critical spirit, the future of his country immediately after decolonization.
When it comes to spring cleaning, it’s always nice to have a spare hand to help. Finding a real human hand is probably not what the Lopezes had in mind, but that’s exactly what this family from Florida found in their grandparents’ attic. Cleaning the dreaded attic turned up a darling wedding photo of the Lopezes grandparents, but it also uncovered some interesting but creepy finds.
Mike Lopez said his sister was not expecting to find a human hand, a treasure map, and gold coins. He spoke to local TV news network WFLA about the discovery, and the story kept getting stranger. The items found by his sister were neatly packed inside a wooden box. To add more to the story, the treasure map contained the name of the infamous mythical pirate “Gaspar”.
<u><em>ANSWER TO THE FIRST QUESTION:</em></u>
After reading the Abraham Lincoln second Inaugural Address speech, the correct answer is<u> “a call to action is used to ensure the audience understands his main point”</u>. Because he mentioned that even when they were trying to SAVE the union without war, insurgent agents had a different goal and it was to DESTROY the union without war.
Abraham Lincoln uses rhetoric with the aim of convincing the audience that what he is doing is the logical way to go in the situation they were going through.
<em><u>ANSWER TO THE SECOND QUESTION:</u></em>
The answer is <u>“He declares that while they have been at war, both the North and South pray to the same God; this is meant to reinforce the idea that they are all Americans and hold the same values”</u>. It means that while both parts of the war are praying to God in order for them to win the war (each part with different goals), they are looking alike.
