Wole Sooyinka in Death and the Kings horseman?​

English
1 answer:
VladimirAG [237]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Death and the King's Horseman isn't just about a clash of cultures—it's also about a clash of religions. Yoruba spirituality and Elesin's attempts to confront mortality and the afterlife are very much at the heart of the story, and Soyinka himself sees the spiritual dilemmas that the play presents as the key thing going on. The play definitely prompts us to think about different religions and customs and how they intersect and clash, dropping references to Islam and Christianity as well as lots of discussion of Yorubam religious practices.

Explanation:

By showing the richness of Yoruba traditions while simultaneously failing to show the British characters actively engaged in any kind of religion, Soyinka suggests the emptiness of British customs and religion.

Consistent power failure can inhibit the effective learning of English. This is
inessss [21]

Answer: B. True

Explanation:

Electricity has become an integral part of education as it is needed to access various resources needed to teach. Videos, text and access to website all help one's ability to learn English and power failure can deny one the opportunity to access these resources.

Even for offline study, power is still needed because people need to be able to study outside the classroom more especially at night.

Power failure therefore inhibits the effective learning of English.
