  • 4E-Chapter 5
    Chapter 5 The character and worldview of the Afrikaner society in the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek Van Jaarsveld says that the troubled times in the history of the Afrikaner nation worked together to bring forth the best characteristics of this nation (Van Jaarsveld 1971a:9). This is probably true for it is only in times of desperation that Afrikaners managed to put their personal differences aside and stand together as a nation. The one thing that really united the Afrikaners was their religion and religious education. In the previous chapter we saw that the Christian based education was seen as fundamental and in this chapter the result of the conservative view on religion and education is spelled out by looking at the character and world view of the Afrikaners that was formed by those fundamental issues. Erlank says if we look at the history of South Africa and use it as criteria for the establishing of the unique character and worldview of the Afrikaner nation, it can be divided into two parts (Erlank 1952:8). From the time of Jan van Riebeek’s landing at the Cape (1652) until the British invasion of 1806, patterns formed and the character and culture of the Afrikaners developed. These patterns were burned into the souls of the nation during the next 150 years of history. The sorrow, pain, hardship and struggles acted like acid to burn the patterns deeper and brighter into the Afrikaners (Erlank 1952:9). This ‘burning process’ melted different aspects of the lives, culture and character of the people into one solid mass, making it nearly 156 impossible to distinguish between the character, religion and worldview of the Afrikaners living in the ZAR (Erlank 1952:12).

  • 1 Introduction 2 the Cape of Good Hope
    “AS ADJUSTED TO OUR STATE OF AFFAIRS…”. THE CHURCH ORDER OF DORDT AT THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE: RESTRICTIVE INFLUENCE - AUGMENTED ECCLESIASTICAL IDENTITY. Prof RM Britz 1 Introduction As a culmination of theological and ecclesiastical thought between 1571 and 1619, the Church Order of Dordt 1619 and its underpinning notions, provided the platform for Dutch reformed ecclesiology until the adoption of the General Regulation1 in 1816. The footprint of the Church Order of Dordt in the overseas territories, however, was yet again different. Transplanted to and sustained by the renowned Dutch East- India and West-India Companies in ultramarine regions, where a trade enterprise of consequence was established since the turn of the seventeenth century, reformed churches implemented a ministry aligned with the mandates and constraints of the authorities as demanded by the respective colonial settings (cf. Schutte: 2002). This is e.g. evident in the Kercken-ordeninge gestelt voor de Kercken in Oost-Indiën, 2 in Batavia in 1624, as well as the 1643 Kerkorde voor de Bataviasche gemeente.3 Even a superficial comparison between the Batavian church orders and that of Dordt 1619, e.g. in respect to the ministry of the sacraments, offers unambiguous indication to what extent the immediate colonial setup contextualized the articles of the Dordtian ecclesiology. The reception of the Church Order of Dordt in overseas regions should thus be carefully distinguished from its enduring and direct impact in the Netherlands. What happened at the Cape of Good Hope? Incepted in April 1652 by the Dutch East- India Company as a refreshment post, the establishment (at the tip of Africa halfway between Batavia and Amsterdam) received its first reformed congregation in 1665, followed by the second (Stellenbosch) in 1686 and the third (Drakenstein) in 1690.

  • Dr. G. D. Scholtz Se Geskiedenis Van Die Nederduitse Hervormde of Gereformeerde Kerk
    DR. G. D. SCHOLTZ SE GESKIEDENIS VAN DIE NEDERDUITSE HERVORMDE OF GEREFORMEERDE KERK Reeds meer as vyf jaar gelede het dr. G. D. Scholtz van die Neder­ duitse Hervormde of Gereformeerde Kerk opdrag gekry om daardie Kerk se geskiedenis te skryf. Dit is eienaardig dat hierdie opdrag nie aan ’n pre­ dikant gegee is nie, of liewer nog aan die Teologiese Professor van ge­ noemde Kerk, in hierdie geval bv. aan prof. dr. D. J. Keet, wat in die jare 1938-1953 hierdie vak aan die Universiteit gedoseer het. Hy was tog die aangewese man vir so ’n opdrag. Waarom is dit egter aan ’n nie-teoloog gegee? Kerkgeskiedenis is tog ’n teologiese vak, en die beskrywing daar­ van vereis ’n grondige kennis van die dogmatiese stromings wat meermale aan die kerklike bewegings ten grondslag lê, as ook ’n grondige kennis van kerkreg. Dr. Scholtz is egter nie ’n teoloog nie, maar ’n joemalis, verbonde aan een van ons dagblaaie. Sy boek is vol allerhande algemene en onge­ gronde bewerings wat kerkhistories nie verantwoord kan word nie. So sê hy op bis. 1 sonder meer dat dit „hoofsaaklik Gereformeerdes” was wat in 1568 die opstand teen Spanje „begin” het. Dit is onjuis. Die lede van die „Verbond der Edelen” wat in 1566 die smeekskrif aan die verteenwoordigster van die Spaanse Koning oorhandig het, was in meer­ derheid Rooms. Willem van Oranje, die leier van die opstand in 1568, was toe nog Luthers en het eers enige jare later Calvinis geword en het op die punt van die godsdiens verdraagsaam gebly.

  • The Life and Work of G.B.A. Gerdener with Special Reference to His Contributions to Afrikaner Identity Formation and the Racial Discourse In
    The life and work of G.B.A. Gerdener with special reference to his contributions to Afrikaner identity formation and the racial discourse in South Africa from 1925 to 1950. By Jacques Pienaar Dissertation presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Theology (Mth) in the Faculty of Theology at Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Prof. Retief Muller. December 2020 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za i Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: August 2020 Copyright © 2020 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ii Abstract When considering the Afrikaner nation’s struggle for national existence, social legitimacy and eventual political domination in South Africa, under the guise of the apartheid system, names such as D.F. Malan and H.F. Verwoerd often dominate the discourse. However, during the 1920s and 1930s, the period in which the idea of an exclusive Afrikaner identity began to crystalize, the Dutch Reformed Church minister, G.B.A. Gerdener, played such a significant formative role in the developing racial ideology of the Afrikaner leaders that in 1958 an American journalist dubbed him the principal author of the apartheid policy. From the opening decades of the 20th Century, Gerdener contributed to the rising culturally exclusive Afrikaner identity as a historian, missiologist and ecclesiastical leader.

  • 4D-Chapter 4
    Chapter 4 Christian education in the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek The one outstanding characteristic of the people leaving the Cape during the Great Trek and settling in the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek north of the Vaal River after 1836 was their clinging to faith and religion in all aspects of their lives and especially as far as the education of their children was concerned (Keyter 1940:31). They tamed the wilderness and went through many trials that could have broken their spirit but they pushed on to liberty and freedom to be able to live their lives and educate their children in the ways they believed to be right and true and according to the Word of God (Fuller 1908:35,36). All of this was reported in the previous chapter. After years in the wagons and always on the road, the Voortrekkers gave birth to a new country built on the laws and morals and experience of what was dear to them: their faith in God Almighty (cf Aylward 1881:19). Issues regarding education in the ZAR, the development of the laws regarding education and the different influences on the standard and means of education in the ZAR are the focus of this chapter. In the centre of the lives of the people living in South Africa, stood the educational system, brought from the Netherlands and upheld in Southern Africa for centuries to come (cf Stockenström sa:226). Not education per se, but the fundamental Christian education, firmly based in the stern Calvinism, and practically lived because of the influence of early Pietism, was all they had, and 130 all they used to build a nation.

  • The Relationship Between the State and the Church During the Early History of Pretoria
    The relationship between the state and the church during the early history of Pretoria Jacques Theron Department of Practical Theology, University of South Africa, Pretoria, South Africa Joep de Wit Co-researcher, Department of Practical Theology, University of South Africa, Pretoria, South Africa Abstract In this article, I shall be discussing the development of the church in the Transvaal and the South African Republic – with specific reference to the situation during the early history of Pretoria. Although I shall highlight the situations within different communities, the main focus of this article is on the relationship between the state and the church in the period 1839 until 1902. As we shall see, during this time, the two institutions protected each other and actually consisted of the same group of leading and influential people. Although these people followed some of the same principles practised in other regions (Cape Colony, Europe), this close relationship between the church and the state harmed the development of both the church and, in many ways, the development of the state in South Africa. Background Right from its very first steps on the road to becoming the capital city of South Africa, the history of Pretoria has always been closely connected to the histories of a number of churches and religious groups. Economical, anthropological and political influences in church and society during the last one and a half century played major roles in creating a city with its own unique features. These dynamics, combined with certain other issues, also created a climate for the growth and decline of the influence of a number of mainline and other churches.

    Cementing Belief: Tracing the History of Modernist Afrikaans Church Architecture, 1955-1975 by Marijke Andrea Tymbios Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Visual Studies in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Lize van Robbroeck March 2017 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. March 2017 Copyright © 2017 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Summary In this thesis I examine the phenomenon of Modernist Afrikaans Protestant church architecture in the South African built environment during the mid- to late 20th century. I trace the relation of the Afrikaner nation and the Church since the arrival of the first Dutch settlers to the consolidation of Afrikaner nationalist rule in the 20th century, as background to a discussion of the emergence and development of Modernist architecture in South Africa. This thesis investigates the Modernist Afrikaans churches which appeared in urban landscapes across the country, with specific focus on the work of two architects, A.P.S. Conradie and Pieter J. Pelser, both of whom have not been researched or written about in depth. As such, this study aims to contribute valuable knowledge and information to the field of South African architectural history.

Volgens hierdie model moes die m otiei vir d ie afs k e id in g van 1859/60 ook die s tig tin g van ’n opponerende in s ti­ tuut met eie kenmerke teenoor die staatskerke in Transvaal, ovs en Kaapkolonie gewees het of die Cbristelijke Gereformeerde Kerk waaruit ds Postma gekom het, moes aangegryp gewees het. Hierdie studie toon aan dat gelowiges in die wyse waarop hulle plaaslik l)ediening en kerkregering ervaar het intuitief tot die slot- som gekom het dat dit nie aan die kenmerke van ware kerk-wees beantwoord nie. Mense wat aan die gesag van Gods Woord gehoor- saam wou wees, is deur kerkgesag vanaf 1834 onteer en in isolasie gedryw e. Slegs ’n klein radikale Enslin-groep het in 1853 verwydering van die gesange uit alle eredienste geeis. Die beswaarde groep ait die ‘Dappers ’ het dié wat Gesange gesing het, laat begaan, m aar hulle wou self nie in hulle godsdiens gedwing word om ‘nuwighede’ te aanvaar voordat hulle dit met hullegewete kon rym nie. Om hier­ die rede is hulle offisieel deur predikante en kerkvergaderings as “deurboorders van die liggaam van Christus" beledig en vervolg. Hulle vertoë om begnp is geignoreer, en hulle kon vir twee dekades nie nagmaal vier nie. In Transvaal is tydens die konsolidasie van die Republiek in Sep­ te m b e r 1858 o ffis ie e l to t ’n eie gem eente v ir besw aardes b in n e d ie staatskerk toegestem.
