  • THE HISTORY of the PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements
    THE HISTORY OF THE PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject JUDAICA at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: MR CEDRIC GINSBERG NOVEMBER 2006 SUMMARY Jews were present in Pietersburg [Polokwane] from the time of its establishment in 1868. They came from Lithuania, England and Germany. They were attracted by the discovery of gold, land and work opportunities. The first Jewish cemetery was established on land granted by President Paul Kruger in 1895. The Zoutpansberg Hebrew Congregation, which included Pietersburg and Louis Trichardt was established around 1897. In 1912, Pietersburg founded its own congregation, the Pietersburg Hebrew Congregation. A Jewish burial society, a benevolent society and the Pietersburg-Zoutpansberg Zionist Society was formed. A communal hall was built in 1921 and a synagogue in 1953. Jews contributed to the development of Pietersburg and held high office. There was little anti-Semitism. From the 1960s, Jews began moving to the cities. The communal hall and minister’s house were sold in 1994 and the synagogue in 2003. Only the Jewish cemetery remains in Pietersburg. 10 key words: 1] Pietersburg [Polokwane] 2] Zoutpansberg 3] Anglo-Boer War 4] Jew 5] Synagogue 6] Cemetery 7] Rabbi 8] Hebrew 9] Zionist 10] Anti-Semitism ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following: Mr Cedric Ginsberg, my supervisor, for his invaluable assistance, patience and meticulous corrections The late Mr Wally Levy for his information concerning families and events in the Northern Transvaal.

Its effects are expected to be severely differ- ent across segments of the society. It is disposed to leaving no facet of human endeavor immune, particularly in vulnerable cities of developing countries where there is dearth of empirical studies. For the context-specific nature of climate change impacts and place-based character of vulnerability, this study explores the influence of socioeconomic attributes on household vulnerability in Mopani District northeast of South Africa to provide basis for targeting, formulating, evaluating, and moni- toring adaptation policies, programs, and projects. The study adopted a multistage random sampling to draw 500 households from six towns in Mopani District, Limpopo Province. Mixed methods approach was used for data collection, while Household Vulnerability Index (HVI) was estimated using principal component analysis and regressed with socioeconomic attributes. The study reveals that climate is changing with high HVI across selected towns.

  • LIMPOPO © for The2010worldcup, Besure Toalsogetoutoftown
    © Lonely Planet 482 Limpopo If South Africa’s northernmost province sounds familiar, it could be from Rudyard Kipling’s Just So Stories, in which the curious young elephant treks to ‘the great grey-green, greasy Limpopo River, all set about with fever trees’. While Kipling’s pachyderm unintentionally gains a trunk, curious humans might, similarly, cross Limpopo to access Kruger National Park and stumble upon the less-visited Valley of the Olifants. The subtropical area packs in misty Magoebaskloof, where waterfalls crash in the forests, and mysterious Modjadji, home of rain-summoning queens and Modjadji palms (cycads). The mystique continues in the Venda region, a traditional area where a python god is believed to live in Lake Fundudzi, and artists produce highly original work. And that’s just to the east of the N1. To the west, attractions include the Waterberg, where the Big Five, the endangered Cape vulture and, yes, fever trees are found in the mountains. Heading north from there, the savannah gives way to the Soutpansberg, an island of biodiversity with 540 bird species, and secluded lodges at the top of steep tracks. Then the baobab trees appear, and the empty roads lead to Mapungubwe National Park, where the remains of a millennium-old civilisation overlook the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe Rivers. With icons ranging from Mapungubwe’s gold-plated rhino figurine to ‘Breaker’ Morant, the second Anglo-Boer War folk hero, Limpopo is an extraordinarily diverse province. If one thing unites its tourist operators, including Fair Trade lodges and art or birding routes, it’s that they offer visitors something completely different.

My dissertation extends the analytic reach of the Anthropology of Development, and will benefit development practice, by focusing on interpersonal dimensions of development practice. Based in Tsonga- and Pedi-speaking areas of South Africa, my case studies include an evangelical church established by an Afrikaner missionary from Cape Town for the purpose of spiritual enlightenment, an HIV-AIDS awareness NGO run by a nun from Ireland, and a school-based project facilitated by a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer (PCV) designed to improve local teaching methods. Collecting information on interpersonal relations between the activists and villagers involved spending time in work spaces and, where applicable, host family settings.
