Chinua Achebe, a renowned African writer, explores the cultural conflicts between colonizers and the colonized in Nigeria in his works. Here, Chang investigates Achebe's ecological thinking in relation to colonialism. In his short story "The Sacrificial Egg," Achebe portrays the transformation of a once harmonious African land into a chaotic and polluted environment due to colonization. The story highlights the distinction between the colonizers, who prioritize commerce and technology, and the indigenous people, who maintain a sustainable and harmonious connection with nature. The protagonist, Julius, initially rejects African superstitions but eventually embraces his African identity and connection to the land. Achebe's ecological critique is evident through symbols, such as the typewriter and weighing machine, which represent the colonizers' attempt to civilize and exploit the indigenous people and their resources. Achebe's ecological thinking aligns with his anticolonial consciousness, emphasizing the importance of balance in human and natural ecology.
