| Abstract: | Ecocriticism and Post-Colonialism are the offshoots of post structuralism. Both these literary theories are new in origin and interconnected with each other. Postcolonialism developed out of the reaction in the earlier colonies against the imperial masters. The indigenous writers started writing back to the centre which had dominated their every sphere of life for centuries. The master-narrative has portrayed the indigenous people of the colonies in a very derogatory way. The natives were represented as savages and uncivilised, hence the coloniser tries to justify its presence there by calling it ‘His’ burden to rectify the ‘unethical’ and immoral practices of these primitive people. Like postcolonialism, Ecocriticism also developed out of the love and concern regarding the natural world in its totality. Ecocriticism tries to make the bond between the nature and social world very strong. It proclaims that Nature should not be deteriorated at the cost of human materialistic demands. Ecocriticism Post-Colonialism provides us the lenses to look deeper into the genesis of Cultural and Environmental degradation by the White rulers on the pretext of development and modernisation. Things Fall Apart (1958) by Chinua Achebe portrays the impact of colonialism on the human and non-human entities in a realistic and accurate manner. This paper would try to explore how the unique culture and environment of Africa was exploited by the colonial rulers. It would also compare the pre-colonial African society with the Colonised Africa and the changes which were bought by the imperial rulers by close textual reading of Things Fall Apart. |
