Ngara KEYWORDS Johannesburg Ivan Vladislavić Postcolonial metropolis Post-apartheid Representation Identity Urbanity Flâneur Irresolvability Dialogic Postcolonialism II ABSTRACT Imagining and Imaging the City – Ivan Vladislavić and the Postcolonial Metropolis Kudzayi M. Ngara PhD Thesis, Department of English, University of the Western Cape This thesis undertakes an analysis of how six published works by the South African writer Ivan Vladislavić form the perspective of writing the city – Johannesburg – into being. Beginning from the basis that Vladislavić’s writing constitutes what I have coined dialogic postcolonialism, the thesis engages with both broader contemporary urban and postcolonial theory in order to show the liminal imaginative space that the author occupies in his narrations of Johannesburg. Underlining the notion of postcolonialism being a “work in progress” my thesis problematises the issue of representation of the postcolonial city through different aspects like space, urbanity, identity and the self, and thus locates each of the texts under consideration at a particular locus in Vladislavić’s representational continuum of the continually transforming city of Johannesburg. Until the recent appearance of Mariginal Spaces – Reading Vladislavić (2011) the extant critical literature and research on the writing of Ivan Vladislavić has, as far as I can tell, not engaged with his work as a body of creative consideration and close analysis of the city of Johannesburg.

  • Malibongwe Let Us Praise the Women Portraits by Gisele Wulfsohn
    Malibongwe Let us praise the women Portraits by Gisele Wulfsohn In 1990, inspired by major political changes in our country, I decided to embark on a long-term photographic project – black and white portraits of some of the South African women who had contributed to this process. In a country previously dominated by men in power, it seemed to me that the tireless dedication and hard work of our mothers, grandmothers, sisters and daughters needed to be highlighted. I did not only want to include more visible women, but also those who silently worked so hard to make it possible for change to happen. Due to lack of funding and time constraints, including raising my twin boys and more recently being diagnosed with cancer, the portraits have been taken intermittently. Many of the women photographed in exile have now returned to South Africa and a few have passed on. While the project is not yet complete, this selection of mainly high profile women represents a history and inspiration to us all. These were not only tireless activists, but daughters, mothers, wives and friends. Gisele Wulfsohn 2006 ADELAIDE TAMBO 1929 – 2007 Adelaide Frances Tsukudu was born in 1929. She was 10 years old when she had her first brush with apartheid and politics. A police officer in Top Location in Vereenigng had been killed. Adelaide’s 82-year-old grandfather was amongst those arrested. As the men were led to the town square, the old man collapsed. Adelaide sat with him until he came round and witnessed the young policeman calling her beloved grandfather “boy”.

There, BLACK AND “COLORED” (MIXED-RACE) BOYS of the same age play a loose game of soccer with a tennis ball. Most of them have bare feet and threadbare, dirty clothes, most of them are noticeably smaller and skinnier than the white boys. Two cultures, separated by more than the high boundary fence.

Hierdie stuC.:ie betwis so 'n opvatting en argumenteer dat 'n noodsaaklike tydperk van informele onderhandeling voor formele kontak bestaan het. Gedurende die voorafgaande tydperk, wat bekend staan as vooronderhandeling, het lede van die Nasionale Party regering en die African National Congress (ANC) gepoog om kommunikasiekanale daar te stel en sodoende die moontlikheid van 'n onderhandelde skikking te ondersoek. Deur van 'n fase-benadering tot onderhandeling gebruik te maak, analiseer hierdie studie die oorgangstydperk met die doel om die struktuur en funksies van Suid-Afrikaanse vooronderhandelinge te bepaal. Die volgende drie onderhandelingsfases word onderskei: onderhande/ing oor onderhandeling, voorlopige onderhande/ing, en substantiewe onderhandeling. Beide fases een en twee word beskou as deel van vooronderhandeling.

We Love You! But why? Africans came before Columbus to fraternize with Native Americans (Sertima, 1976). But since 1492 we have been terrorized along with the natives. Transportation, Auction, Plantation, Revolution, Emancipation, Liberation, and still we love you, America! Did you put voodoo on us or are your adorable Hollywood monsters so irresistible? I went to a conference on ‘Their America’ with a determination to address the second half of the organizers’ charge, the half that was not about why America is hated but without spelling it out in terms of love for America; that half of the coin of hatred appears to be the side of love too shy to be named but no less passionate than the side of hate. Their America is also ours to dream, to love, to seek, to save! Why do we love this God’s own country of theirs? Is it because our African ancestors before us slaved for this country, as Bob Marley queried? We built the cabin and we planted the corn. Yet Editorial: Their Americans: Why Do We Love Em So? Biko Agozino they look at us with a scorn while they eat up all our corn. Bob Marley went on to chant that we have to chase the crazy baldheads out of town because they return hatred for our love, telling us about the God above; but mostly we respond with unrequited love and yet the dominant message of Bob and all Rasta is the message of love.

  • Life and Times of Nelson Mandela the Attorney
    February 2014 Special Feature Life and times of Nelson Mandela the attorney The late Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela will not only be remembered for his outstanding contribution in liberating South Africa but also for his involvement in shaping our legal jurisprudence. His interest in the legal field was influenced by cases that came before the Chief's Courts and the fact that his father was the principal councillor to the Acting Paramount Chief of Thembuland. During 1951, after Mandela completed his articles of clerkship as a candidate attorney at Witkin, Sidelsky and Eidelman and though he was not yet a fully-fledged attorney he was able to draw court pleadings, and consult with clients. He was determined to become a lawyer. He passed his attorney's admission examination and was subsequently conferred the relevant certificate during February 1952, which was constituted under the then provisions of sub-section (1) of s23 of Act 12 of 1916. On March 27 1952, within the jurisdiction of the then Transvaal Provincial Division of the Supreme Court of South Africa (now high court) and before Justice Steyn, Mr Mandela was admit- ted as an attorney and his name was accordingly enrolled as such. He proceeded to work for the law firm Terblanche & Briggish. Mandela often visited his close friend Oliver Tambo during his lunch hour at a law firm called Kovalsky and Tuch, and made a point of sitting in a “white's only chair" in the “whites' only waiting room." Apart from their political involvement in the ranks of student politics at Fort Hare University, Mandela was inspired by the art of legal philosophy as well as the jurisprudential knowledge that Tambo possessed.
