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.

It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people that little else has ... It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers." Nelson Mandela Untitled Mandela Script EXT. ALL-WHITE HIGH SCHOOL, WESTERN CAPE - DAY A big, rich, powerhouse all-white high school located near the freeway into Cape Town. The RUGBY FIELDS are immaculate. FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BOYS in striped rugby jerseys train with total intensity under the critical eye of the COACH. Right ACROSS THE BOUNDARY FENCE from the rugby fields is an area of WASTE LAND leading up to the freeway. 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.
