A politics of blood: The ‘white tribe’ of Africa and the recombinant nationalism of a colonizing indigene
The past is a foreign country. They do things differently here. (L.P. Hartley)
Women on the frontier: Self‐representations of the conqueror: Which frontier? Conqueror of what
The frontier in question is one that has experienced none of the literary recognition accorded the American west, for example, and which is in fact the little known but equally violent frontier of the Eastern Cape in South Africa
“Ways of worldmaking”: A study of narrative transmission in Henry James's The Aspern Papers
In this paper I argue that an understanding of modality ‐ especially when deployed in so‐called unreliable homodiegetic narration ‐ essentially requires an understanding of the referential functions of language. These functions, often performed by ¡mplicatures and, in Goodman's terms, “exemplifications”, create the “worlds” whose cognisability becomes a presupposition upon which our grasp of the relevant modality is predicated. James's novella, T…
Etching “inconscience”: Unreliability as a function in narrative situations
The article takes as its point of departure Henry James's notion of “inconscience” or, as Booth was later to call it, unreliability, as a function of the mediator in narrative situations. It explores the literary etiology of the concept and illuminates by praxis the parameters within which such narrators are placed, offering in the conclusion a typology of “inconscient” narrators which may form the basis of subsequent narratological exegesis
Writing feminism/theoretical inscriptions in South Africa
To find our measure, exactly, \nnot the echo of other voices. \nThe present growing out of our lungs \nlike a flower, with a smell \nthat we have re-traced through our veins \nsome dark, secret smell \nthat will bloom when the hour has struck \nan animal smell \nreminiscent of blood \nthe world's scent \n(Antigone Kefala)
Stereoscopic Perspectives: Transmission and Reception in Unreliable Homodiegetic Narration
Race and gender: A study of the artistic corruption of Perceval Gibbon's Souls in Bondage
The paper analyses the informing “work‐ideology” of Souls in Bondage, engaging especially with its sexist and racist cast, and argues in effect that, within the context of reception, the necessary co‐operation required of the reader for the presentational process to render adequately the drama of its presented world is vitiated
