General Mutual Contextual Beliefs And Ecosophy In Clark-bekederimo’s All For Oil



Authors : Adeyanju Adegboye .

Abstract

Our task in exploring J. P. Clark-Bekederemo’s All for Oil is to demonstrate that via pairing the linguistic tools of Ecolinguistics with Bach and Harnish’s Mutual Contextual Belief, MCB, the variation of the Speech Act Theory by J.L Austin and J.R Searle, we can derive the Ecosophy of a text and aid a thorough understanding of an eco-linguistic text which focuses on not just the embarrassingly sustained environmental despoliation of the Niger Delta region of Nigeria but how, and through which agency such practices occur. Study findings indicates that the ‘rape of the Niger Delta’ involves the combined causative factors of greed and betrayal by the Niger Delta leadership aided by multinational oil corporations acting in sync with the Nigerian state as well as local cronies.
