Antjie Krog is ’n (ook internasionaal) bekroonde digter, joernalis, vertaler en akademikus. Sy debuteer op die jong ouderdom van 18 met die bundel Dogter van Jefta (1970) waarna talle bekroonde digbundels en publikasies volg. As joernalis by Die Suid-Afrikaan lewer sy in die 1990’s verslag oor die Waarheids-en-versoeningskommissie en verwoord haar ervarings oor dié proses in Country of my skull, wat in 1998 gepubliseer is en onder meer die Alan Paton-toekenning vir niefiksie en die Olive Schreiner-prys ontvang. Sy vertaal ook Nelson Mandela se biografie, Long walk to freedom, in Afrikaans as Lang pad na vryheid. Sy wen drie keer die gesogte Hertzogprys – vir Lady Anne (1990), Mede-wete (2017), asook vir haar jongste poësiebundel, Plunder, in 2023. Mees onlangs het sy die Tienie Holloway-medalje van die SA Akademie ontvang vir Vetplantfeetjies, saam met medewerkers Fiona Moodey en Ingrid de Kock, vir haar kinderdigbundel oor die natuur en inheemse plantegroei. Hierdie huldigingsbundel is die 16de in die reeks van die SA Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns wat literêre kunstenaars huldig wat met die Hertzogprys bekroon is, en wat die Afrikaanse letterkunde oor dekades heen verryk het.

The Postcolonial Low Countries is the first book to bring together critical and comparative approaches to the emergent field of neerlandophone postcolonial studies. The collection of essays ranges across the cultures and literatures of the Netherlands and Belgium and establishes an encounter between postcolonial theoretical discourses from both within and without the region. Each one of the contributions puts under pressure the definitive concepts of postcolonial studies in its more conventional anglophone or francophone formation, as well as perceptions of the Low Countries, Belgium and the Netherlands, as lying outside or to the side of the postcolonial domain. In the Low Countries, local and regional issues concerning multiculturalism and colonial belatedness have raised important questions about the possible grounds on which postcolonial critical concepts might be not only translated but also generated afresh, to suit these paradoxically new contexts. As The Postcolonial Low Countries incisively demonstrates, the Low Countries demand a careful rearticulation of such postcolonial 'readymades' as hybridity, accommodation and creolization. Gathering together contributions from both internationally renowned scholars and newly established researchers in the field, The Postcolonial Low Countries maps previously underexplored national and transnational literary critical trajectories. The book challenges in boundary shifting ways current readings of the so-described multicultural and postcolonial Netherlands and Belgium.
Nelson Mandela brought the poetry of Ingrid Jonker to the attention
of South Africa and the wider world when he read her poem "Die
kind" (The Child) at the opening of South Africa's first democratic
parliament on May 24, 1994. Though Jonker was already a significant
figure in South African literary circles, Mandela's reference
contributed to a revival of interest in Jonker and her work that
continues to this day.
