The phenomenology of T.T. Cloete This article is an exploration o f the way phenomena are treated in the poetry o f T. T. Cloete. Four important aspects o f Cloete's way o f looking are discussed, viz. the collecting eye that connects everything with everything, the eye that discovers correspondences, the deological eye that reads signs o f G od' s presence, and the reflecting eye. A critique o f reflection is developed by means o f a more detailed analysis o f "Blydskap " (Joy). These fo u r ways o f seeing indicate links between Cloete's poetry and Husserl' s Phenomenology. ' Die verskillende bundels word soos volg aangedui; Angelliera met An, Jubitaposisie met J, Allotroop met Al, Idiolek met /, Driepas met D en Met die aarde praat met Ma.

John Wesley de Gruchy comes from the background of the Congregational Union of South Africa during the heated discussions leading up to the formulation of A message to the people of South Africa in the 1960's. In this era, he continued the congregational ecumenical view and the tendency of criticism against the "boers", in favor of the black people in South Africa. As director of communications and study in the South African Council of Churches, he set out to define the church, in dialogue with Barth, Bonhoeffer, Hoekendijk, Moltman and Metz. His starting point was that theology can only be relevant if it is contextual. "Contextual" in this sense means in relation to the contemporary socio-political situation. The German Bekennende Kirche provided De Gruchy with an excellent example of the dynamic church, especially in the context of the confessing church movement under auspices of Beyers Naude. As the anti-apartheid church struggle became more articulate, De Gruchy moved into a new theological phase. During this era, his writing was marked by two issues- a) strong criticism against Afrikaner Calvinism, Afrikaner Nationalism and Christian Nationalism, and b) the need for a South African Biblical theology. During 1986, a year after the Kairos-document was published, De Gruchy's theology developed into a third phase: a paradigm shift in favor of liberation theology. This was necessary for his theology in order to be relevant (=contextual) in the South African situation. De Gruchy did not want to break with his reformed background and saw a useful link between reformed and liberation theology in the Belhar Confession. To him, this meant a reinterpretation of reformed theology from the perspective of the poor and oppressed. A new project started in service of the struggle for justice and reconciliation. In this process, De Gruchy stripped the reformed tradition until only one thing remained essential for reformed theology: reinterpretation in relation to the contemporary (socio-political) context. The only problem with this definition of reformed theology, is that it raised the question "can Afrikaner Calvinism not also be viewed as a reinterpretation and therefore reformed?" De Gruchy tries to prevent this by defining two impulses that has to be present in theology: the prophetic and the evangelical. These will prevent theology from being ideological or pietistic.

The heart of humankind rediscovered: on the track of a Scriptural view of being human in the philosophy of D.H. Th. Vollenhoven

Literator, 1989

This article explores the deconstructive technique of the reversal of oppositions by applying it to "uitgedun" (depleted, or depletion) from T.T. C loete's first collection, Angelliera. The single most im portant opposition in the poem , viz. betw een the basic and the complex or the rich (already a reversal of the usual polarity), is shown to be reversible. The absent rich and full state is necessary to confer a positive meaning on what is essential. The text, however, contradicts itself in the first stanza. T here it reaches out to a possible full and rich state in the future, which contradicts the celebration of the basic or depleted state in the rest of the poem. The basic state is celebrated as a state of presentness to the self, after a period of self-alienation to the not so basic. How ever, the different m etaphors of circulation-of blood, of m erchandise and of bodies-in the end rather suggest an absence of selfhood, a self split and alienated from itself by cheap exchange in various circulations.

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2020.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this dissertation, entitled “Wildheid, mens-dier-figure en ander grensbewoners in Willem Anker se Buys (2014): Die affektiewe uitwerking van die nomadiese subjek op die leser”, the focus, on the one hand, is mainly on the nomadic nature and so-called wildness of the main character, Coenraad de Buys, as well as his fellow border dwellers – namely those in the novel who can be classified as the Other, including the Buys-dogs. On the other hand, the effect that both this nomadic character and the novel text as a whole can have on the reader is also explored. In the end, a conclusion is reached regarding the function of a novel such as Buys that relies to a greater extent on the affective response of the reader.AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie tesis, getiteld “Wildheid, mens-dier-figure en ander grensbewoners in Willem Anker se Buys (2014): Die affektiewe uitwerking van die nomadiese subjek op die leser”, word daar enersyds...

Spatial and Temporal Lexicographic Deictic Anchoring. In this contribution attention is given to deixis as it is known in the field of semantics. The transfer of deixis to lexicography is discussed and the concept of lexicographic deictic anchoring is brought to the fore. It is shown how this anchoring can be executed in different ways. Lexicographers need to decide how to employ this procedure in a specific dictionary. Different types of text segments can be used to enable deictic anchoring. These segments that include items, item symbols and item parts are briefly discussed. The main focus of this article is on spatial and temporal lexicographic deictic anchoring. Different deictic markers and anchoring procedures are discussed. In this regard it is shown that dictionaries do not only employ single items but also item complexes and that these item complexes can have a uniform or a hybrid format. It is suggested that successful deictic anchoring often demands that dictionaries shou...

Embodiments of death in the novels of Lettie Viljoen/Ingrid Winterbach References to death and mortality play an (increasingly) important role in the works of Lettie Viljoen/Ingrid Winterbach. In this article the central role of personifications of death in her novels is investigated. There are mainly two important ways in which death is embodied in her novels since 1993, i.e. as an ubiquitous, but simultaneously absent male figure, such as Jama in Karolina Ferreira (translated as The Elusive Moth, 1993, 2005), Jan de Dood in Buller se plan (Buller's plan, 1999) and Theo Verwey in Die boek van toeval en toeverlaat (The book of coincidence and refuge, 2006) and the femme fatale and angel of death, respectively represented by a seductive woman with red hair and pale skin and either an emaciated woman in black, or a black woman as in Landskap met vroue en slang (Landscape with women and snake, 1996) Buller se plan and Niggie (translated as To Hell with Cronjé, 2002, 2007). These personifications function as so-called memento moriiconographic reminders of mortality. Although death obtains a specific personal appearance through personification, it does not become more knowable or representable in the works of Viljoen/Winterbach, however. In fact, these embodiments repeatedly rather underline the ungraspable nature and unknowableness of death. In the novels since Karolina Ferreira there is, eventually, a sustained tension between the attempts to make death more knowable and representable on the one hand and, on the other, the understanding or concession that all these attempts are, ultimately, insufficient and limited.
