Synopsis
This book, “Wisdom of the Ancients”, contains proverbs of the Igbo, people of ancient Israelite roots that live on the two sides of the lower Niger River in West Africa. In the footprint of the biblical proverbs, it portrays their thoughts and actions as legacy of a people with a unique heritage. A people who lived as agriculturists depending mainly on farming and husbandry and drawing a philosophical world view from their ancient religious belief, experience and environment. It is descriptive and explanatory of life’s challenges and the Igbo view; a unique literary work with both translation and explanation to enhance comprehension. It highlights faults, flaws and benefits of human interactions; the nuances and ambiguity of thought and its corresponding actions and reactions. This ancient tradition of the Igbo is profoundly reflected in this literary work along with its unique insightful interpretations to excite and engage the reader.
