Its devastation is be matched only by the Spanish Flu of 1918, which claimed more than 50 million souls globally. At the time of the Spanish Flu Pandemic, almost the entirety of the developing world was under the yoke of colonialism. A large proportion of those who perished due to this pandemic was located in the colonised countries. The Coronavirus swept across the world with appalling scope and speed, activating a historically unprecedented public health and economic crisis of incalculable proportions. With the global economy and human society almost at a standstill for months on end, every part of the world economy is experiencing upheaval. The World Bank is projecting that the global economy will shrink by 5,2% in 2020, with 170 countries experiencing negative per capita growth. The cost of the COVID-19 crisis to the world economy is projected to be approximately $9 trillion over the next two years. The most marginalised in society are expected to experience vastly disproportionate health and economic distress. These include the elderly and immunocompromised men, women and children. Creative and cultural workers are vulnerable precisely because this sector thrives on human contact and mass participation. However, before this scourge took root in our society, the achievements of the sector were vast and a solid contribution was being made to the GDP.

Abstract Since the transition from apartheid, there has been much discussion of the possibilities for the emergence of a truly ‘national’ literature in South Africa. This thesis joins the debate by arguing that Black Consciousness, a movement that began in the late 1960s, provided the intellectual framework both for understanding how a national culture would develop and for recognising it when it emerged. Black Consciousness posited a South Africa where formerly competing cultures sat comfortably together. This thesis explores whether such cultural equality has been achieved. Does contemporary literature harmoniously deploy different cultural idioms simultaneously? By analysing Black writing, mainly poetry, from the 1970s through to the present, the study traces the stages of development preceding the emergence of a possible ‘national’ literature and argues that the dominant art versus politics binary needs to be reconsidered.

    Book Reviews Michael Chapman, ed. e Drum Decade: Stories from the 1950s. Introduction by John Matshikiza. Pietermaritzburg: U of Natal P, 2001. 241 pp. $54 cloth. Lindy Stiebel and Liz Gunner, eds. Still Beating the Drum: Critical Perspectives on Lewis Nkosi. Amsterdam: Rodopi, 2005. 375 pp. $103 cloth. e negritude movement had Présence Africaine; the Harlem Renaissance had Crisis and Opportunity; South African writers of the 1950s had Drum maga- zine. Paul Gready has written that Drum’s “flashy muck-raking journalistic style attempted to capture the vivid life of the townships. Drum became a symbol of a new urban South Africa” (146); for Rob Nixon, it “amplified the voices of a defiantly impure cosmopolitanism, projecting an urban look and ethos” (28). Lewis Nkosi, who went to work for the magazine in 1957, said that Drum “wasn’t so much a magazine as it was a symbol of the new African cut adrift from the tribal reserve—urbanised, eager, fast-talking and brash” (Home and Exile 8). e magazine serialized novels by Alan Paton and Peter Abrahams, and occasionally published the work of black American writers like Langston Hughes. Perhaps the most important function Drum played, though, was to serve as a launching pad for the careers of a whole generation of young black and mixed-race fiction writers and journalists: Bloke Modisane, Can emba, James Matthews, Peter Clarke, Arthur Maimane, and Richard Rive, among others, published their earliest work in the pages of Drum, and Ezekiel Mphahlele reached a wider audience through the magazine’s readership. Michael Chapman pays tribute to this remarkable legacy in his invaluable little collection e Drum Decade.

He attended school and university in Pietermaritzburg, graduating from the then University of Natal with a BA.LLB in 1972. At University, he met one of the founders of Afrapix, Paul Weinberg, who was also studying law. In 1975 he joined a commercial studio in Pietermaritzburg, Eric’s Studio, as an apprentice photographer. In 1977 he joined The Natal Witness as a photographer/reporter, and in 1979 moved to the Rand Daily Mail as a photographer. In 1979, Alfers was offered a position as Photographer/Fieldworker at the National University of Lesotho on a research project, Analysis of Rock Art in Lesotho (ARAL) which made it possible for him to evade further military service. The ARAL Project ran for four years during which time Alfers developed a photographic recording system which resulted in a uniform collection of 35,000 Kodachrome slides of rock paintings, as well as 3,500 pages of detailed site reports and maps.
