dc.description.abstract | Contemporary Nigerian literary art as it stands today has greatly benefited from Chinua Achebe's Landmark: literary artistry and pioneering efforts at re-engineering the' English language to accommodate African thoughts and socio-cultural experiences. Through an admixture of distinct linguistic talent, creative ingenuity and insights garnered from the Mbari Art and oral tradition of the Igbo people of Eastern Nigeria, Achebe initiated and institutionalised an indigenous model of cross-cultural literary aesthetics in Nigeria, which not only inaugurated a distinct form of literary art but also instituted Q literary tradition the core of which, in my opinion, largely stems from his ability to synchronise the multiple influences of his indigenous linguistic and artistic values and heritage with those of western civilization and literary tradition. | en_US |
