These films are products of a “white”, largely state-subsidised film industry, although they include a small number of independent, “alternative” films. A critical reading of these cinematic “apartheid landscapes” provides evidence of the historical context, discourses and values informing their production, as well as the construction and transformation of place and identity in apartheid South Africa. The Cape is an important symbolic landscape, historically associated with the origins of Afrikanerdom and the white South African nation. In film, Cape landscapes (urban and rural) are represented as either picturesque and pastoral or dystopian and anti-pastoral. Over the period discussed, a shift occurs from the former – idealised landscapes, appearing in largely state- subsidised, “apolitical”, escapist films – to the latter:Town social-realist landscapes, documenting repression, poverty and racial inequality, appearing in more critical, usually independent films that were influenced by the global anti- apartheid movement of the 1970s and 80s. By analysing film landscapes from the whole period, this thesis demonstratesCape how the representation of the Cape changed over time, mirroringof national social, political and ideological changes. These include changes in the representation of Afrikaner nationalism, Afrikaner identity, the “Cape coloured” and the Cape as place. This thesis is the first in-depth study of the visual representation of the Cape on film, analysing it in the frameworks of film and landscape studies, film and history, and the aesthetic history of the region. This cross- disciplinaryUniversity perspective demonstrates the links between popular film and state ideology. It also reveals how cinematic landscape conveys information about ordinary people in apartheid South Africa: their tastes, attitudes, and senses of identity and place. v Town Cape of University Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people and organisations: The Andrew W.

Cape of University vii Town Cape of University Introduction This dissertation analyses landscape in a range of “white films” made in the Cape Province during the apartheid era.1 Most are commercial, state-subsidised productions, although a small number of alternative, artistic or even oppositional films are discussed. These films reflect the interests of power and the unequal social and political power relations of the period.2 They portray “territorial identity” in the apartheid landscape, mostly naturalising it through the spatial regulation or erasure of black characters and the confirmation of privileged white, Afrikaner or tourist spaces – thus reinforcing, however covertly, apartheid ideas of separate identity.3, 4 This tendency is particularly clear in the “A-scheme” films, which were made under the restrictive state subsidy scheme introduced in 1956.5 These films also reflect common perceptions of the time. As “everyday” entertainments, examples of popular visual cultureTown rather than the grand narratives of nation favoured in South African film histories, commercial fiction films offer insight into the construction of popular culture and identity. These films entertained ordinary, white, largely Afrikaner cinemagoers, reflected their tastes and concerns and spoke to theirCape aspirations and material actuality.6 These films’ often complex landscapesof represent physical environments as well as 1. The region called the Cape Province during this period incorporated what are now the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape provinces. “White films” were made by and for white, largely Afrikaans-speaking South Africans. 2.

The term “Afrikaner” was first used to designate whites in the 18th century (along with “burgher”, “Christian”, “Boer” and “Dutchmen”). Between 1652 and 1875, the term “burgher” was used for a Dutch or Afrikaans-speaking white person; after 1875 this became “Afrikaner”. H.

  • True Confessions, End Papers and the Dakar Conference
    Hermann Giliomee True Confessions, End Papers and Hermann Giliomee was Professor of the Dakar conference: A review of Political Studies at the University of Cape Town and is presently Professor the political arguments Extraordinary at the History Department, University of Stellenbosch. E-mail: [email protected] True Confessions, End Papers and the Dakar conference: A review of the political arguments As a social critic Breyten Breytenbach published two books of political commentary and political analysis during the mid-1980s without the opportunity of engaging with commentators at home. While True Confessions of an Albino Terrorist is part autobiography and part searing comment on prison life, End Papers is a more detached dissection of the major political and cultural issues confronting South Africa. Breytenbach was now one of the respected international voices on the political crisis in South Africa. The violent break-up of apartheid had changed Breytenbach’s social criticism. In the place of the earlier rejection and denunciation had come a willingness to engage and reason with his audience. The Dakar conference of 1987, which Breytenbach co-organised, offered an ideal opportunity for this. The conference was given wide publicity and was seen by some as the catalyst that broke the ice for the negotiations between the government and the ANC two and a half years later. Key words: Afrikaans literature, Dakar conference, National Party, African National Congress, South Africa, violence, negotiations. Introduction Shortly after being released from jail in 1982 Breyten Breytenbach published two non-fiction books, The True Confessions of an Albino Terrorist (1984) and End Papers (1986).

  • Lethal Weapon 2 (1989)
    Q3 2019 85 Tekst: Luc Quadackers AT THE MOVIES LETHAL WEAPON 2 (1989) Eerlijk is eerlijk: als er geen boekhouder in deze film voor zou komen, dan was ik na een kwartier afgehaakt. Een groot deel ontstijgt amper het B-niveau. Of zoals een vriend van mij zou zeggen: “In z’n genre is hij slecht.” De boekhouder lijkt vervolgens niet eens echt van belang te zijn voor het verhaal. Ongemerkt vormt Joe Pesci als boekhouder Leo Getz (‘Whatever you need, Leo gets’) echter de kurk waarop de film drijft. Getz is kroongetuige in een witwaszaak, waarin hij zelf de hand heeft gehad. Hij heeft bovendien geld afgeroomd van de boeven, die hem dat niet in dank afnemen (in de film wordt overigens geflirt met het ‘Robin Hood-element’). Twee agenten (Mel Gibson en Danny Glover), met een geheel eigen moraal en aanpak, moeten Getz beschermen tot aan de rechtszaak. Getz speelt verder geen belangrijke rol, maar gaat overal mee op pad en bemoeit zich met het politiewerk. Al zegt hij zelf: “I usually stay in the car.” Het mooiste vindt hij de politiewapens en het aanzetten van de sirene. Ook geeft Getz een vrij uitgebreide technische uitleg van een witwasconstructie (wat doet dat trouwens in de film, en wie begrijpt het zonder tien keer te kijken?) en een waarschuwing voor de drive-thru bij hamburgerketens: “Always go to the counter, never go through the drive-thru. They fuck you at the drive-thru.” Tijdens een martelsessie door de crooks houdt hij zijn rug recht (waarom dat nodig zou zijn is overigens onduidelijk).

  • Tendense En Tematologie in Populêre Werke Oor Suid- Afrikaanse Rugby, 1948-1995: ’N Historiografiese Studie
    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.
