Abstract-Languages have evolved with the development of the times and with a clear ideological character. Colonial discourse is a kind of "cognitive violence". Achebe's choice of English and African native language is not a kind of racial literature that is "either this or that", but is a "nationality literature that "can be both". This linguistic and literary view presents the history and reality of post-colonial society in Africa. The language hybrid of Achebe opened up the "third space" of colonial language and African native language, and realized cross-cultural "translation" between different languages.

Achebe, the father of modern literature in Nigeria, severely criticized Conrad's ethnocentrism and colonial essentialism, pointing out his distorted description of Africa and his disregard for African human nature. Achibe subverted the imperialist narrative with his literary creation, and suggested that Africans must change their perspective and write Africa from within. Achibe's works embody the pursuit of common humanity.
