| dc.description.abstract | Our research paper highlights the different representation of African women in Nigerian postcolonial and patriarchal society through analysing the work of Flora Nwapa’s Efuru. The aim of our dissertation is to depict womanism in the Igbo society. In this dissertation, we have analysed different issues like positive companionship; mothering and nurturing in Flora Nwapa’s work Efuru. In order to reach our purpose, we rely on the theory of Africana womanism developed by the African American writer Clenora Hudson Weems in her work entitled Africana womanism: Reclaiming Ourselves published in 1993 . The work comprises discussion of two important sections.First, we have studied woman’s attitude towards positive companionshipand sisterhood focusing on the protagonist Efuru and other characters in Nwapa’s work Efuru. In the second section, we have explored the importance mothering and nurturing for the African woman’s identity, emphasising on Efuru. After analysing the work, we have come to the findings that Nwapa is a womanist writer who deals with women’s issues and daily life struggle in postcolonial and patriarchal society. Finally, we have supplied a conclusion that restates our main findings in relation to our issues. | en |
