Perspektief en profiel - 'n Afrikaanse literatuurgeskiedenis (Afrikaans, Paperback): H.P. van Coller Perspektief en profiel - 'n Afrikaanse literatuurgeskiedenis (Afrikaans, Paperback)
H.P. van Coller
R907 Discovery Miles 9 070 Ships in 5 - 10 working days

Die Afrikaanse literatuur het 'n aangrypende lewe in Afrika oopgeskryf. Hierdie lewe kry sy beslag in 'n boeiende takelwerk verse, in 'n kennis van die aand en deur die oe van 'n siener in die suburbs. Kannas kom huis toe en Poppies loop die lange swerfjare deur. Nie slegs die belletrie (die arbeid van skeppende skrywers) is indrukwekkend nie, maar ook die getuienis van kundige lesers - die leesaktiwiteite van akademici wat sin moet maak van skeppende arbeid, wat die patrone moet ople en die teoretiese lense instel op die gedig, die toneelstuk, die essay, die drama of roman. Akademies gesproke is Perspektief en profiel 'n onontbeerlike handleiding. Dit is tans die belangrikste beskouing van ons skryfwerk in Afrikaans en die begeleidende literere gesprek. Dit bied insig in die oeuvres van die belangrikste skrywers (die "profiel" in die boektitel), maar is ook 'n bestekopname van verskuiwende teoretiese gesigspunte en aksente en 'n kartering van die gebied, vandaar die "perspektief ". Dit toon by implikasie oortuigend aan hoedat die Afrikaanse letterkunde aansluit in suid-suidverband met ander literature van die halfrond, en ondersoek die historiese en tydgenootlike noordsuid-bande en -spanninge. Ook verken dit die skryftegnieke en die produksie en resepsie van die Afrikaanse teks in Afrika. Dis 'n boek wat sensitief is vir die polities-kulturele omgewing wat steeds omvorm word deur die momentum geskep deur die koms van demokrasie in 1994. Eerder as om 'n literatuurgeskiedenis te probeer wees wat die fi nale woord wil spreek en ondubbelsinnig kanoniseer, word die literatuur hier as strydperk aangebied. Hierdie veelstemmige gesprek matig sigself as literatuurgeskiedenis nie objektiwiteit aan nie, maar huldig verskeidenheid en teenspraak. Perspektief en profiel toon aan dat die Afrikaanse letterkunde diep geent is in die kontinent Afrika. Dit boekstaaf die geestesprestasie van mense aan die suidpunt van 'n uitdagende kontinent. Dit is mense wat rekenskap gee van hul ontheemding en twyfel, maar ook van inburgering en liefde vir die land, van verwantskap met landgenote wat ander geskiedenisse en huistale het. Dis 'n literatuur van hierwees en aanhanklikheid aan plant en dier, landskap en leemte. Perspektief en profiel verskyn tydens die groot wending. Dis 'n tyd waarin die Boek soos geslagte dit sedert Gutenberg geken het weens die oorgang na digitaliteit onder beleg kom. Die tydsbesteding aan ernstig lees as aktiwiteit verskraal en hierdie boek is 'n tydige herinnering aan die tydsaamheid en denke wat in 'n literatuur opgesluit is. Die boek verdien 'n staanplek in elke Afrikaanssprekende gesin se boekrak of leplek in hul e-boek-biblioteek. Dit is onontbeerlik vir die student en die akademikus. As jy wil weet hoe jou voorgeslagte hul hierwees verwoord het en hoe jou tydgenote jou eie situasie stem gee, is hierdie boek jou toevlug. Perspektief en profiel Deel 3 bevat drie perspektiewe, asook outeursprofiele alfabeties gerangskik van S tot Z.

Novel Craft - Victorian Domestic Handicraft and Nineteenth-Century Fiction (Hardcover): Talia Schaffer Novel Craft - Victorian Domestic Handicraft and Nineteenth-Century Fiction (Hardcover)
Talia Schaffer
R2,729 Discovery Miles 27 290 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Novel Craft explores an intriguing and under-studied aspect of cultural life in Victorian England: domestic handicrafts, the decorative pursuit that predated the Arts and Crafts movement. Talia Schaffer argues that the handicraft movement served as a way to critique the modern mass-produced commodity and the rapidly emerging industrial capitalism of the nineteenth century. Her argument is illustrated with the four pivotal novels that form her study's core-Gaskell's Cranford, Yonge's The Daisy Chain, Dickens's Our Mutual Friend, and Oliphant's Phoebe Junior. Each features various handicrafts that subtly aim to subvert the socioeconomic changes being wrought by industrialization. Schaffer goes beyond straightforward textual analysis by shaping each chapter around the individual craft at the center of each novel (paper for Cranford, flowers and related arts in The Daisy Chain, rubbish and salvage in Our Mutual Friend, and the contrasting ethos of arts and crafts connoisseurship in Phoebe Junior). The domestic handicraft also allows for self-referential analysis of the text itself; in scenes of craft production (and destruction), the authors articulate the work they hope their own fictions perform. The handicraft also becomes a locus for critiquing contemporary aesthetic trends, with the novels putting forward an alternative vision of making value and understanding art. A work that combines cultural history and literary studies, Novel Craft highlights how attention to the handicraft movement's radically alternative views of materiality, consumption, production, representation, and subjectivity provides a fresh perspective on the major changes that shaped the Victorian novel as a whole.
