A Question of Madness: Re-Reading Bessie Head's A Question of Power
In reassessing A Question of Power, widely regarded as Bessie Head's major work, this article re-examines the biographical context in which the novel was written in order to establish its generative matrix. It then turns to key aspects of the novel and attempts to describe and analyse some of their most puzzling and inexplicable features. The article concludes with an assessment of the novel's value in the corpus of African fiction four decades a…
The Cambridge History of South African Literature
South Africa's unique history has produced literatures in many languages, in both oral and written forms, reflecting the diversity in the cultural histories and experiences of its people. The Cambridge History offers a comprehensive, multi-authored history of South African literature in all eleven official languages (and more minor ones) of the country, produced by a team of over forty international experts, including contributors from all of the…
Editing Bosman's stories
This article looks back at the editing work that went into the fourteen‐volume Anniversary Edition of Herman Charles Bosman (1998–2005) and pays particular attention to the editing of Bosman's stories. It examines some of the problems that were encountered in arriving at ‘authoritative’ versions of the stories and argues that, ironically, it was Bosman himself who set in train the process that resulted in his classic Mafeking Road ending up with …
The Use of Orality in the Short Stories of A. C. Jordan, Mtutuzeli Matshoba, Njabulo Ndebele and Bessie Head
The deployment of oral forms in the written work of African writers is a more complex process than would perhaps appear at first sight. Frequently theorised about but seldom achieved, the effective transposition of the oral into the written involves successfully negotiating the ontological gap between oral and written modes. This entails a shift from the spoken to the written word, from live audience to absent reader, from reciprocity and interac…
Commitment among ethical investors: An experimental approach
Bosman's ‘Voorkamer’ stories a reconsideration
Morals, money, ethical investing and economic psychology
This paper reports on a questionnaire survey of 1146 ethical investors in the UK. Ethical investing usually means that certain companies are excluded from one's portfolio on non-economic grounds, e.g. because they manufacture armaments, test chemicals on live animals, or have poor pollution records. Is this an example where moral commitment rather than economics is driving economic decision making? Ethical investors were found to be neither crank…
Ways of telling
Where are the motives? A problem with evidence in the work of Richard Thaler
Worthwhile intentions
Artfulness in the early South African oral-style story: Ernest Glanville's 'Abe Pike' tales
The focus of this article is Ernest Glanville's collection of stories Tales from the Veld (1897) and its place in the South African oral‐style story tradition. Glanville's tales are set on the Eastern Cape Frontier in the last part of the nineteenth century and employ a narrator, the loquacious but wily backwoodsman ‘Uncle Abe Pike’. This style of story reached its apogee with the ‘Oom Schalk Lourens’ tales of Herman Charles Bosman. Little, howev…
