Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Scholarly studies on the Igbo have been scanty and fragmented:
Politics and Identity Formation in Southeastern Nigeria: The Igbo
in Perspective fills an obvious gap. This book explores the social,
cultural, economic, political and aesthetic traditions that
distinguish the Igbo of southeastern Nigeria from their neighbors.
It is both multi- and cross-disciplinary in scope, content and
analyses, focusing essentially on experiences and forces that
shaped the Igbo society, Igbo identity formation, and Igbo
socio-cultural, political and aesthetic representations. The themes
interrogated in refreshing fashion with an appreciable level of
originality include the importance of Igbo names in understanding
the people’s social, linguistic, religious, gender, and cultural
identities, spiritual matters, Pentecostalism and their attendant
social, political, and economic consequences for the Igbo, and
textile and fashion museums of Igbo fabrics, attires, designs,
patterns and colors.
Celebrated for its own clarity and sublime style, this classic work
of literary theory draws on the writings of Demosthenes, Plato,
Sappho, Thucydides, Euripides, and Aeschylus, among others, to
examine and delineate the essentials of a noble style. The complete
translation, from the Greek of A. O. Prickard's Oxford text,
features an introduction by Grube, establishing the historical and
critical context of the work, and a biographical index.
