Description: | Select Guide Rating Drawing from distinctly African source materials and methods, Achebe’s groundbreaking historical account examines the shared power, influence, and authority that uniquely African, female-gendered entities—people, diviners, and deities—exert across Africa’s interconnected physical and spiritual worlds. An unapologetically African-centered monograph that reveals physical and spiritual forms and systems of female power and leadership in African cultures. |
