Comparison of chapters

Comparison between:

Chapter 5,7 & 25

The Ibo Tribe and the Europeans

By comparing the two chapters, the viewers were positioned to see the Ibo tribe as a powerful and strong belief rulers of the indigenous forest. However, in chapter 25, they are seen as powerless and small in front of the Europeans.This is because the Ibo tribe has little saying or small voices in the chapter. The Europeans seems to have no respect of the tribe's belief and laws, looks down at the tribe because they are not civilised as them. They seem violent in their language in chapter 25, whereas in chapter 7, the Europeans were calming and peaceful, who doesn't like distracting other people.


  • Seems powerless in front of the Europeans
  • Obey the law/rules of the tribe
  • Unable to express their feelings
