Book Description
In this book, Oluwatoyin Oduntan offers a critical intervention in the scholarly fields of Nigerian, and West African history, as well as towards understanding the intellectual ideas by which modern African society was formed, and how it functions. The book traces the shifting dynamics between various segments of the African elite by critically analyzing existing historical accounts, traditions and archival documents. First, it explores the lost world of native intellectual thoughts as the perspective through which Africans experienced the colonial encounter. It thereby makes Africans central to contemporary debates about the meanings and legitimacy of colonial empires, and about the African cultural experience. It shows that the resettlement of liberated and Westernized Africans in Abeokuta and after them, European missionaries, merchants and colonial agents from the 1840s, did not dismantle preexisting power structures and social relations. Rather, educated Africans and Europeans entered into and added their voices to ongoing processes of defining culture and power. By rendering a continuing narrative of change and adaptation which connects the pre-colonial to the post-colonial, Power, Culture and Modernity in Nigeria leads Africanist scholarship in new directions to rethink colonial impact and uncover the total creative sites of changes by which African societies were formed.

Book Description
Igbo Cultural Heritage; A vanishing identity. The book portrays the rich cultural heritage of the Igbo people of South-eastern Nigeria, which the owners of the culture are allowing to die. The Igbo cultural heritage is as diverse as the Igbo dialects but that diversity does not in any way diminish its beauty, elegance and cultural values rather it enhances them. The Igbo artworks are exquisite and elegant and are much sought after all over the world. The Igbo-Ukwu artworks that have such exceptional quality, intricacy and elegance dates back to 9th Century, long before the contact with the Europeans. That discovery fascinated as well as puzzled the early Europeans that first made contact with the Igbo people. The Igbo cultural dances and the instruments, the masquerades dances, the festivals, the palm wine, the cuisine, the attire etc. are unique to the people and need to be preserved, protected and propagated for the world to see and enjoy.
