 \n# C.L.INNES\n\n# CAMBRIDGE STUDIES IN AFRICAN ANDCARIBBEAN LITERATURE 1\n\nCHINUA ACHEBE  \nThis book provides a detailed and up-to-date examination ofthe writings of Chinua Achebe,Africa's best-known and mostwidely read author.Dr Innes studies his writings,lectures andactivities chronologically,in the context of Nigerian cultures andpolitics and their interaction with western cultures and powers.Her analysis goes beyond that of previously published studies,toexamine Achebe's short stories,essays and poetry,and his mostrecent publications Anthills of the Savannah(1987)and Hopes andImpediments(1988).Particular emphasis is placed upon Achebe'sdeparture from European literary models in order to create anew kind of fiction which seeks to challenge the preconceptionsof African and western audiences alike,and which is of con-siderable literary and political significance.  \n# BLANK PAGE\n\n# CAMBRIDGE STUDI ES IN AFRICAN ANDCARIBBEAN LITERATURE\n\nSeries Editor:Professor Abiola Irele,Ohio State University  \nEach volume in this unique new series of critical studies will offera comprehensive and in-depth account of the whole oeuore of oneindividual writer from Africa or the Caribbean,in such a waythat the book may be considered a complete coverage of thewriter's expression up to the time the study is undertaken.Atten-tion will be devoted primarily to the works themselves -theirsignificant themes,governing ideas and formal procedures;biographical and other background information will thus beemployed secondarily,to illuminate these aspects of the writer'swork where necessary.  \nThe emergence in the twentieth century of black literature inthe United States,the Caribbean and Africa as a distinct corpusof imaginative work represents one of the most notabledevelopments in world literature in modern times.This serieshas been established to meet the needs of this growing area ofstudy.It is hoped that it will not only contribute to a widerunderstanding of the humanistic significance of modernliterature from Africa and the Caribbean through the scholarlypresentation of the work of major writers,but also offer a widerframework for the ongoing debates about the problems of inter-pretation within the disciplines concerned.  \n# First title in the series\n\nChinua Achebe,by C.L.Innes,University of Kent at Canterbury  \n# Other
