Résumé

The Gustavus Vassa/ Olaudah Equiano's 1789 interesting narratives about the horrors of slavery in Igbo land, Nigeria, and the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade have elicited a lot of inquiry. However, Scholars working on slavery are yet to close the academic gaps in terms of ascertaining beyond the Igboness of Olaudah Equiano as challenged by Vincent Caretta. Stolen from his homeland, Essaka in present-day Isseke in Orlu Division, Southeastern Nigeria, Equiano wrote his story of global slavery from 1745. The Equiano narratives, as one of the foremost African literatures written by an enslaved person, is yet to be fully interpreted in terms of analyzing the in-depth meanings, names, and places mentioned in his slave narratives. This book, therefore, provides an intellectual history of Equiano's origins and his contribution in expressing the horrors of slavery at the global stage
