    Tendense en tematologie in populêre werke oor Suid- Afrikaanse rugby, 1948-1995: ’n Historiografiese studie. Wouter de Wet Tesis voorgelê in ooreenkoms met die vereistes vir die graad MA (Geskiedenis) aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch Studieleier: Prof. A.M. Grundlingh December 2013 [1] Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Verklaring: Ek, die ondergetekende, erken hiermee dat die werk wat in hierdie navorsing/verhandeling vervat is, my eie, oorspronklike werk is en dat ek dit voorheen nie in sy geheel, of gedeeltelik, by enige ander universiteit vir ’n graad ingehandig het nie. Handtekening: WJ de Wet Datum: 2 September 2013 Copyright © 2013 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved [2] Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Opsomming Hierdie studie is ’n historiografiese studie van populêre rugby geskiedskrywing, en dek die jare 1948 tot 1995. Die doel is om te dui op hoe dié sport in populêre skrywes uitgebeeld is. Die fokus gaan val op die twee vorme van populêre geskiedskrywing in hierdie tydperk, naamlik algemene rugbygeskiedenisboeke en biografiese werke. Die manier hoe hierdie verhandeling te werk gaan, is om tendense en tematologie in hierdie werke te identifiseer en die verandering daarvan oor die jare, na te volg. Hierdie werk lê op die breekvlak tussen ’n studie van die geskiedenis en die letterkunde. Deur die gewilde rugby skrywes inhoudelik en letterkundig in fyn detail te bestudeer, gaan lig op die veranderende tendense en tematologie gewerp word. Aanhalings word deurgans ingesluit en bespreek om die ontwikkeling van die populêre rugby geskiedskrywing oor die jare te verduidelik. Deur op hierdie kompleksiteite klem te lê, poog die studie om ’n bydrae te lewer tot die steeds ontwikkelende veld van Suid- Afrikaanse sportgeskiedenis.

In South Africa, the tour was expected to reopen the doors to international competition for the Springboks after an anti-apartheid sporting boycott had forced the sport into relative isolation during the 1970s. In the face of much international condemnation, the Springboks toured to New Zealand and the USA in 1981 where they encountered large and often violent demonstrations as those who opposed the tour attempted to scuttle it.

  • Die 1981 Springbok-Rugbytoer Na Nieu- Seeland: Die Katalisator in Die Stryd Teen Apartheid in Suid-Afrikaanse Rugby
    JOERNAAL/JOURNAL BARNARD/RADEMEYER DIE 1981 SPRINGBOK-RUGBYTOER NA NIEU- SEELAND: DIE KATALISATOR IN DIE STRYD TEEN APARTHEID IN SUID-AFRIKAANSE RUGBY Leo Barnard en Cobus Rademeyer1 Summary In analysing the history of South African sport the 1981-Springbok rugby tour to New Zealand is always mentioned as one of the turning points in the struggle against apartheid in South African sport. Due to the nature of the segregated sports development in South Africa, there has always been a racial undertone in the rugby relations between South Africa and New Zealand, but the All Blacks have always been one of South Africa's closest rugby allies. The 1981 tour, however, changed all of this, mainly because it caused a rift within the New Zealand rugby community and led to strong political undertones that nearly halted the tour. Various anti-apartheid groupings, the New Zealand police force and the rugby-mad New Zealand people came in confrontation with one another during the tour. This confrontation was orchestrated by 'behind the scenes' developments, and attempts by the anti-apartheid organisations to dismantle apartheid in South African sport. By disrupting and almost stopping the tour, these orchestrated attempts by the anti-apartheid movements set an example for future actions against apartheid in South African sport. These actions not only stunned the rugby public in New Zealand, but television brought these visuals to the homes of many white South Africans for whom it was their first real experience of the boycott actions against South African sport. _______________ Die veelbesproke Springbokrugbytoer na Nieu-Seeland in 1981 word algemeen aanvaar as die katalisator vir buitelandse verset teen Suid-Afrikaanse rugby gedurende die tagtigerjare.
