Between The Apple And The Bite - Poems About Women's Predicaments In History And Mythology (Paperback): Sue Woodward Between The Apple And The Bite - Poems About Women's Predicaments In History And Mythology (Paperback)
Sue Woodward
R191 Discovery Miles 1 910 In Stock

The poems in ‘predicaments’ explore women’s responses to the constraints and consequences of choices they have made. Their responses are not much changed through the millennia of myth, history and into contemporary times.

The poet reflects on significant moments in the lives of women such as Helen of Troy, Delilah and Joan of Arc, and the predicaments they are faced with in a man’s world.

The Game Ranger, The Knife, The Lion And The Sheep offers spell-binding stories of some amazing, little known characters from South Africa, past and very past. Let us introduce you to some of the characters you’ll meet inside.

Starting with Krotoa, the Khoi maiden who is found working in the Van Riebeeck household as both servant and interpreter. In time she becomes the concubine of Danish surgeon Pieter Merhoff and later his wife. But did she jump (allured by the European glitz and good food) or was she pushed (abducted or sold to the Van Riebeeck’s by her uncle Atshumatso, otherwise Herry)? Was she raped or a willing sexual parter of Meerhoff? Women, like fresh meat and vegetables, were in short supply in those early colonial years in the Cape.

Then there is Mevrou Maria Mouton who preferred to socialise with the slaves than her husband on their farm in the Swartland, and with whom she conspired to murder him. What became of them is … best those gory details are glossed over for now.

And the giant Trekboer Coenraad de Buys, rebel, renegade, a man with a price on his head who married many women (none of them white) and fathered a small nation. The explorer Lichtenstein called him a modern-day Hercules. Then there are the men of learning and insight, such as Raymond Dart and Adrian Boshier, who opened up the world of myths and ancient artefacts so we now better understand the ancients and the world they created for us to inherit. Or James Kitching who broke open rocks in the Karoo to reveal creatures that inhabited this region long before even Africa was born.

And so, without further ado, we give you our selection of stories about remarkable characters from the veld. These stories will excite, entertain and enthral you! You will finish reading them wishing you had more!

R65 Discovery Miles 650 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Anderkant die Gariep, in die harde, wye wêreld van die Noord-Kaap, het sedert die vroeë 1900’s pioniersmense gewoon wat deur g’n stof of droogte, g’n lamsiekte of beespes ondergekry kon word nie.

Dit was ’n tyd voor selfone en kitsoplossings, toe ’n man se woord nog sy woord was, en ’n afspraak ’n afspraak; ’n tyd toe jagtogte, Boeredanse en familietroues mense saamgesnoer het en swaarkry en verlies bloot ’n deel van die natuurwette was.

In hierdie wêreld word drie geslagte Bredenkamps groot – en maak die leser kennis met mense wat in die wêreldgeskiedenis maar klein sandkorreltjies is, maar wie se vreugdes en plesier; sweet en trane die fondament gelê het vir ’n koersvaste, trotse nageslag.

Die Plaag (Afrikaans, Paperback): David van Reybrouck Die Plaag (Afrikaans, Paperback)
David van Reybrouck
R58 Discovery Miles 580 In Stock

Die plaag is tegelykertyd reisverhaal, avontuurverhaal, speurverhaal, natuurkundige artikel, letterkundige studie en historiese ondersoek. Die skrywer – 'n Belgiese joernalis – reis na Suid-Afrika op soek na die "dowwe spoor" van Eugene Marais, en word uiteindelik met veel meer as dooie historiese gegewens beloon. Die Nederlandse uitgawe van Die Plaag het die Debuutprijs vir 2002 verower en was op die kortlys van die Gouden Uil-literatuurprys vir 2002. Die vertaling van Van Reybrouck se Nederlandse teks in Afrikaans deur die bekende digter en omroeper doktor Daniel Hugo is ’n onmisbare toevoeging tot Afrikaanse lesers se kennis van die merkwaardige Eugene Marais se lewe. Hiermee word kultuurgoedere wat deur ’n Vlaming nagespoor en opgeteken is as ’t ware huis toe gebring.

Annerlike Afrikaans - Woordeboek van Afrikaanse kontreitaal (Afrikaans, Paperback): Anton Prinsloo Annerlike Afrikaans - Woordeboek van Afrikaanse kontreitaal (Afrikaans, Paperback)
Anton Prinsloo
R306 Discovery Miles 3 060 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Lesers wat nie ’n annerlike kontrei se taal kan slat nie, hoef nie daaroor kop te vreet nie. Hierdie omvattende woordeboek plaas die gewoonlike Afrikaans uit die kontreie op skrif vir inkommers en vir ingesetenes wat wil klont oor kontreitaal. Die eienaardig mooie woordeboek ontgin annerlike Afrikaans op so ’n manier dat geen leser meer uitgesluit hoef te wees van diegene wat eenspaaierig handel nie want alles wat hierin opgeteken is, is koek van een deeg. Dit kouboe die taal vir oueres wat daarmee vertroud is en vir jongeres is dit brandhout om vir die oudag bymekaar te maak.

Reinaard Die Vos (Afrikaans, Hardcover): Henri van Daele Reinaard Die Vos (Afrikaans, Hardcover)
Henri van Daele; Illustrated by Klaas Verplancke; Translated by Daniel Hugo
R73 Discovery Miles 730 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Reinaard die Vos breek weg van die tradisie van ou fabels of diereverhale. Die vosverhaal is ’n bytende satire op die destydse politieke, sosiale en godsdienstige (wan) toestande. Die dinge wat deur die skrywer aan die kaak gestel word, is vandag nog deel van ons samelewing. Henri van Daele het die oorspronklike Middelnederlandse rymende eposse naatloos aanmekaargelas en in soepel prosa herskryf. Daniel Hugo se Afrikaanse vertaling maak dit ook Suid-Afrikaanse volksbesit.
