His novel Things Fall Apart and some of his essays are the primary sources used for arguments in this study. This study finds out that the use of oral tradition in Things Fall Apart aims at educating African people about their glorious past and creating awareness for the other on issues relating to Africa’s cultural heritage. Further, the study finds that through Things Fall Apart, Achebe tells his people and the world who Africans really are, to wrestle with the hegemonic western imposed identity and reinvent a new identity. Things Fall Apart stresses that Igbo oral tradition is able to give modern Nigeria a set of values shared among the African in pre-colonial time, which is the basis of the African identity. Because, if there is going to be any substantial development in the African society, there must be a well established link and relation with the past which in Achebe view is the foundation for progress and growth Diplome : Master 2 Permalink : https://bu.umc.edu.dz/master/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=6222 Oral tradition in achebe’s novel things fall apart : Part of the african identity [texte imprimé] / Khadidja Sebti, Auteur ; M. ali Yachir, Directeur de thèse . - CONSTANTINE [ALGERIE] : Université Frères Mentouri Constantine, 2015 . - 49 f. ; 30 cm.
