ESSAY ON: Arrow of God: A Review of the Factors Responsible for Ulu’s Loss of Influence in Umauaro

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: An 8 page paper providing a brief synopsis of the book by Chinua Achebe. The author of this paper places the events which unfold in the book in a historical context, asserting that the problems which occurred in Umauaro and which “Arrow of God” presents as revolving primarily around the loss of influence of the god Ulu cannot be solely placed on the shoulders of the chief priest Ezeulu. Indeed, the problems which resulted in Umauaro are just a small reflection of those that resulted throughout Africa. The blame is more accurately placed on the British and on the villagers themselves for succumbing to greed and corruption. No additional sources are listed.
