Hermann Giliomee and The Shaping of South African Society
This article reflects on the collaboration between 1973 and 1979 of Hermann Giliomee and Richard Elphick, as well as that between the two of them and other scholars, a process which resulted in the publication of their co-edited study The Shaping of South African Society, 1652–1820. It also dwells on reaction to the book, and its revised edition of 1989, which were prescribed texts in many South African universities for over a decade

Issues in comparing the speechreading abilities of hearing‐impaired and hearing 15 to 16 year‐old pupils

Previous comparative studies have included a complete population of hearing‐impaired pupils or have been confined to those who are severely‐profoundly deaf. In the present study only pupils who had sufficient verbal memory to be able to repeat up to six words in a sentence were included. The test stimuli con…

Methodology in South African historiography
This article seeks to clarify some issues raised by Marxists in their critique of the “liberal” historians of South Africa.

This method is based on three principles: methodological idealism, methodological individualism, and empiricism. (1) “Methodological idealism” is distinct from causal id…
