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.

What is the central idea of from Of Wolves and Men?
REY [17]
<span>Originally Published in 1978, this special twenty-fifth-anniversary edition of the National Book Award finalist includes an entirely new afterword in which the author considers the current state of knowledge about wolves and recent efforts to rein-troduce wolves to their former habitats in American wilderness areas. Humankind's relationship with the wolf is based on a spectrum of responses running from fear to admiration and affection. Lopez's classic, careful study won praise from a wide range of reviewers and went on to improve the way books about wild animals are written. Of Wolves and Men reveals the uneasy interaction between wolves and civilization over the centuries, and the wolf's prominence in our thoughts about wild creatures.</span>
