Dit lees as volg: "The dwelling house was 50 x 30 built of galvanized iron, bucklined, ceilio boarded floors..." Het enigiemand dalk 'n idee wat die terme "bucklined" en "ceilio boarded floors" beteken. Dankie, Ina Penberthy vanaf 'n witgerypte Seattle Boodskap 2.

  • Die Geskiedenis Van Die Afrikaner in Rhodesië (1890 – 1980)
    DIE GESKIEDENIS VAN DIE AFRIKANER IN RHODESIË (1890 – 1980) deur Gustav Hendrich Proefskrif ingelewer vir die graad Doktor in die Wysbegeerte (Geskiedenis) aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch Promotor: Dr. W.P. Visser Fakulteit Lettere en Sosiale Wetenskappe Departement Geskiedenis Desember 2010 Verklaring Deur hierdie proefskrif elektronies in te lewer, verklaar ek dat die geheel van die werk hierin vervat, my eie, oorspronklike werk is, dat ek die outeursregeienaar daarvan is (behalwe tot die mate uitdruklik anders aangedui) en dat ek dit nie vantevore, in die geheel of gedeeltelik, ter verkryging van enige kwalifikasie ingedien het nie. Datum:……………………………………… Kopiereg © 2010 Universiteit van Stellenbosch Alle regte voorbehou OPSOMMING Die bespreking van die geskiedenis van die Afrikaners as blanke minderheid in Rhodesië is ʼn doelbewuste poging om die teenwoordigheid en wesenlike bydraes van hierdie bepaalde bevolkingsgroep histories te ondersoek. In metodologiese terme ressorteer hierdie studie binne die raamwerk van diaspora- en migrasiestudies, volksverskuiwing en die dinamika van minderhede woonagtig in ʼn gasheerstaat. Sedert 1890 het Afrikaners vanuit Suid-Afrika, merendeels weens die soeke na verbeterde lewensomstandighede en werksgeleenthede, geleidelik hul weg na die gebied noord van die Limpoporivier gevind. Die georganiseerde en individuele Afrikaner-trekke en die sporadiese verhuising van Afrikaner-immigrante na Rhodesië sou die fondamente van ʼn selfonderhoudende, dog geografies wydverspreide bevolkingsgroep lê. Afrikaners sou op feitlik alle lewensterreine en in die verskaffing van noodsaaklike arbeidsdienste deelneem. Aangesien die Afrikaners in hoofsaak ʼn landelike bevolking verteenwoordig het, het hulle goed vertroud geraak met die boerderypraktyk en -omgewing. Die Afrikaner-boere sou oorwegend met verloop van tyd ʼn bydraende ontwikkelingsrol in die algehele Rhodesiese landboubedryf en ekonomie vervul.

  • Impure Memory, Imperfect Justice: a Comparison of Post-Repression
    Impure Memory, Imperfect Justice: A Comparison of Post-Repression Fiction Across the South Atlantic Norma G. Kaminsky A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Cynthia Steele, Chair Laura H. Chrisman Monika Kaup Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Comparative Literature © Copyright 2016 Norma G. Kaminsky University of Washington Abstract Impure Memory, Imperfect Justice: A Comparison of Post-Repression Fiction Across the South Atlantic Norma G. Kaminsky Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Cynthia Steele Comparative Literature This dissertation examines literary representations of—and interventions in—the conflicts between memory, justice, and national reconciliation after authoritarian regimes. I compare fiction written during the democratic transitions following apartheid in South Africa and the military dictatorships in Chile and Argentina in the late 20th century. In my analysis, I consider not only how post-dictatorship fiction approaches historically traumatic events, but also what these novels contribute, both to collective memory and to our understanding of the individual and social dimensions of settling accounts with traumatic recent pasts. The novels studied in depth are: Tony Eprile's The Persistence of Memory (South Africa, 2004), Gillian Slovo's Red Dust (South Africa, 2000), María Teresa Andruetto's Lengua madre (Argentina, 2010), Patricio Pron's El espíritu de mis padres sigue subiendo en la lluvia (Argentina, 2011), and Carlos Franz's El desierto (Chile, 2005). My analysis is developed within two complementary theoretical frameworks: collective memory (especially by Maurice Halbwachs and Pierre Nora), and human rights and their intersections with literature (by Andreas Huyssen, Joseph Slaughter, and Sophia McClennen, among others).
