Historical and personal context Achebe wrote Things Fall Apart in the 1950s, during the waning years of British colonial rule in Nigeria. Born in 1930 in Ogidi, in present-day southeastern Nigeria, Achebe was educated in mission schools and exposed to both Igbo traditions and English literature. That dual exposure produced a perspective determined to correct misrepresentations of African societies found in many colonial-era European texts—most famously Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, which Achebe criticized for dehumanizing Africans. Achebe’s novel can be read as a corrective: it re-centers African voices, portraying complex social institutions, moral codes, and internal conflicts rather than treating Africans as a blank backdrop for European narratives.
