  • Sidi Rezegh and Tobruk Two South African Military Disasters Revisited 1941 - 1942
    SIDI REZEGH AND TOBRUK TWO SOUTH AFRICAN MILITARY DISASTERS REVISITED 1941 - 1942 by DAVID BROCK KATZ Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Military Science (Military History) in the Faculty of Military Science at Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Prof I.J. van der Waag Co-Supervisor: Prof G.E.

Date: 12 November 2014 Copyright © 2014 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Sidi Rezegh and Tobruk are the largest disasters suffered by South Africa in its military history. Yet, despite their enormity, Sidi Rezegh and Tobruk are little understood and hardly remembered. South Africa declared war on Germany on the 6 September 1939, after a bitter internal debate, amounting to a conflict between Afrikaner nationalists and those who supported the British Empire. South Africa’s political ambivalence and disunity ran parallel to her unpreparedness for war in every important department from the lack of vital coastal defences to the miniscule size of her army and air force and complete lack of a navy. The first six months of 1941 saw the South Africans play a significant part in completely defeating the Italian colonial forces in East Africa.

    2 1 JUNY 2000 -j •& ?3 32- Representations of Masculinity in Wilbur Smith's Courtney Saga. Contextual Causes and Strategies of Authorial Control i* Mi, M. Isabel Santaulària i Capdevila Courtney bodies 181 Chapter 7: Courtney bodies. Bodily perfection, strength and sexuality. Bodies with a cause 7.1. Bodily perfection: embodying the 'essential man' During the nineteenth century, and due to the development of biology, health reform, and the optimistic belief that it was within the capacity of men to improve themselves, the masculine body was elevated to a position of enormous importance. 'Body-building' came to be associated with ideals of perfection and virtue and muscular bulk in men became a highly prized cultural value. Unsurprisingly, the heroes of nineteenth century imperialist adventure narratives were portrayed as muscular and young,1 their physical perfection, bodily vigour and tanned complexion becoming an expression of their virility. The relevance of physical perfection has remained ingrained in our western society. We live in a world obsessed with images and appearances and where sheer physicality is very likely to determine successful performance in society as is exemplified by the new myth-like quality physically- perfect top models such as Naomi Campbell or Claudia Schiffer have acquired; or by the fame of actors such as Sharon Stone, Brad Pitt, Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone, whose bodies more than their acting skills granted them widespread social recognition; or by the idol-like status of sport figures such as Ronaldo, Moya or Agassi who have become modern society's new demi-gods, not only admired for their sports achievements but for their bodies, which have become icons of physical perfection as can be appreciated in a recent advertising campaign for a well-known Swiss watch trade mark.
