We are challenged, motivated, provoked, inspired, emboldened, and educated, and, most significantly, we grow. The Festival is maturing and is bearing rich fruit. On this 35th anniversary of our partnership and involvement, we cannot wait to delve into and savour the delights of the 2019 offering. The Festival’s heritage and pedigree continue to deliver a solid and powerful programme while each production will ensure that visitors are delighted and moved. Taking the pulse of modern times, pushing artistic boundaries and provoking new thought. We look forward to the Standard Bank Jazz Festival, now in its 32nd year. South African jazz is exciting – bursting with youthful and aspirant musicians – and the festival showcases a thrilling line-up from here, the rest of the continent and abroad. Ranging from various big bands, unconventional jazz ensembles, and performances by the youth, you will have to plan carefully to take in as much as possible. We encourage you to catch Mandla Mlangeni, the 2019 Standard Bank Young Artist for Jazz. His, is a coming of age story of sorts and an illustration of an achievement by our youth jazz development programme – Africa’s largest development programme produced and administered by artists themselves. The 2019 edition of the National Arts Festival will once again take us to a higher level: from the Children’s Festival to the Creativate Digital Arts Festival, the 2019 Standard Bank Young Artists’ productions, world-class jazz, theatre, visual arts, dance and contemporary music productions. On behalf of Standard Bank, I encourage you to experience and take in as much as you can. In Africa, the audience is as much a part of the production as the practitioners – so you too should reflect, engage and show your #AfricanheArt. Desiree Pooe – Head of Sponsorship at Standard Bank 5 A Festival to lift your spirits and feed your soul The Eastern Cape is one of the world’s most exciting, diverse, vibrant and culturally rich regions, and it gives me great pleasure to welcome you once again to our wonderful flagship event – the National Arts Festival. Our Province is vast: it spans over 168 000km2 and is the second biggest in the country. Its sheer size makes it home to a rich diversity of people, cultures, practices and languages. As 2019 has been declared the International Year of Indigenous Languages by the United Nations, I urge you to spend some of your time with us exploring some of this richness. During the Festival it will be showcased through our literature, craft, theatre, dance, music and film, in a spectacular series of events that gives you many opportunities to discover and sample some of what our Province has to offer. Our welcome is extended to all who are visiting, and all who call this Province home. We know that the Festival will lift your spirits and feed your soul, and NATIONAL ARTS FESTIVAL 2019 we thank you for being here with us. We ask only that you leave with a promise to return, and look forward to welcoming you as a friend again in years to come. Ms Bulelwa Tunyiswa – MEC: Sports, Recreation, Arts and Culture, Eastern Cape A rich feast for us all to enjoy 25 years ago our nation entered a new age of democracy – with a Bill of Rights and Constitution that enshrined so many principles that, before, our people had been denied. Foremost among those is the principle of ‘Freedom of Expression’. Today our artists, writers, performers, dancers, and musicians give life to that hard-fought right by taking to our stages to give expression to a diversity of views and perspectives that are as plentiful as there are people in our country. It is in celebration of that spirit that I welcome you to our crown jewel – the National Arts Festival. These eleven days are an opportunity to reflect, celebrate, commiserate, hope and dream. We have come a long way as a nation. And we have so much more ahead to embrace and conquer. It is my hope that you will find, on our stages, something new; something familiar; something challenging. And I hope that, throughout it all and whatever you find, you will be entertained and will leave Makhanda richer than when you arrived. On behalf of our Board I would like to thank all of our supporters and funders. Those who engage with us, those who offer advice, who contest the things we take for granted and, mostly, those who choose to spend their time and resources in search of AMAZ!NG. Our team has prepared a rich feast for us all to enjoy, and I’m as excited at the prospect of sitting down to share it as you are. Enjoy every moment!

  • An Anthropological Study of Itinerancy and Domestic Fluidity Amongst the Karretjie People of the South African Karoo
    CHILDHOOD: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL STUDY OF ITINERANCY AND DOMESTIC FLUIDITY AMONGST THE KARRETJIE PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN KAROO by SARAH ADRIANA STEYN submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject ANTHROPOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR M. DE JONGH MARCH 2009 Dedicated to my children, Luke and Sarah-Anne In memory of my siblings, Doria and Francois I declare that Childhood: An Anthropological Study of Itinerancy and Domestic Fluidity Amongst the Karretjie People of the South African Karoo is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. S A Steyn 2009.03.05 “The only difference between them and us is that we are ready to learn from them but they are not ready to learn from us ... in everyday life they must come to recognise us, respect us, value us ... for what we are. Only then will each one of us be able to discover the other”. (Words of a Roma delegate at a Conference organised by the Centre for Gypsy Research at the Université René Descartes, Paris, 1993) ABSTRACT The Karretjie People, or Cart People are a peripatetic community and are descendants of the KhoeKhoen and San, the earliest inhabitants of the Karoo region in South Africa. As a landless and disempowered community they are dependent upon others for food and other basic necessities specifically, and other resources generally. Compared to children in South Africa generally, the Karretjie children are in every sense of the most severely deprived.

After leaving school he formed the African Heritage Band and started to perform in the UK. Ayub was invited to take part in one of the ‘recording weeks’ at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios, where he recorded his first album En Mana Kuoyo (Just Sand) in 1993 and he toured extensively with Peter Gabriel and WOMAD. Ayub’s music is on the soundtracks of films such as ‘I Dreamed of Africa’ (2000), ‘The Constant Gardener’ (2005) and ‘Samsara’ (2011). Trevor Warren visited Ayub Ogada in Kenya in the Spring of 2012 with the ambitious goal to record an album together in just two weeks. Trevor touched down in Nairobi and met up with his old friend Ayub and the Kenyan musician, Isaac Gem. The three set to work on songs for Kodhi, meaning ‘seed’ in Luo, and this grew rapidly into a fully fledged album. Listen to the title song.

(August 2009) Dana Eatman Lawrence, B.S., University of South Florida; M.A., Western Carolina University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Patricia Phillippy This dissertation examines the poetry of Isabella Whitney, a maidservant in London, Veronica Franco, a Venetian courtesan, Marie de Romieu, a baker‟s daughter in rural France, and Aemilia Lanyer, the daughter and wife of Italian immigrant musicians in London, all of whom attempted to create communities of learned and literary women within their texts. In their works, all four women boldly reject the misogyny prevalent in early modern culture; however, they do so without being able to withdraw from the culture that contributed to such rhetoric, thereby writing from the periphery.
