Sunnie Ododo and his philosophical stance in Hard Choice.
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN HUMANITIES - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
In spite of many early observations and discussions, political and human situations have remained almost at crossroads. Hence, additional studies on human nature are needed to foster both social and structural transformations in human societies. The aim of this essay is to elucidate Sunnie Ododo's ideological stance in his play, Hard Choice with a view to suggesting a way of institutionalising value re-orientation for the much needed social advancement in all its ramifications. The study presents an existentialist perspective into the reading and understanding of Ododo's Hard Choice to underscore the lessons, which can be learnt from the piece of writing. The application of content analysis to the study provides an effective appreciation of the human nature vis - a - vis his existence, which is premised on freedom, choice and responsibility. The remainder of this paper is structured into introduction, theoretical framework, discussion and conclusion.
