Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Lectures on South Africa: Delivered Before the Philosophical Institute Edinburgh, Jan; 6& 9, 1880 I could not run this risk. I decided after some reflection that for once I would leave the history of the past, and turn to a question of present interest and the present time. I may make mistakes in talking about it, but if I do there is no danger of your detect ing me. I wish there was. For the South African question is a very knotty one indeed, and the knots can only be untied when the British people will please to pay attention to it. We can hardly say that it is of no importance to us. We have just been killing about twenty thousand people in South Africa - people who had done us no harm we only feared that perhaps they might do us harm. We have annexed a country as large as France, which belonged to Dutchmen. Dutchmen do not like to have their independence taken from them any more than we do, and nobody exactly knows why we did it. I believe that in our hearts we are sorry now that we annexed it at all, and would be glad to get rid of it again, if we only knew how to get rid of it without seeming ridiculous to the rest of the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Lectures on South Africa: Delivered Before the Philosophical Institute Edinburgh, Jan; 6& 9, 1880 Ladies and Gentlemen, - An invitation to lecture before the Philosophical Institution at Edinburgh is a high compliment, but also an embarrassing one. You have been addressed, and will be addressed during this session, by many able speakers on weighty matters, scientific or literary. It has been difficult for me to select a subject on which I have anything to say which can deserve a place in so distinguished a series. I turned over in my mind various periods of Scotch history, hoping to find something which might answer the purpose. I thought at one time I would make a lecture out of the Scotch Statute-book. There is pleasant reading in that book, only it is a little dry. Old statutes are like the ivory carvings which are found in Egyptian and Assyrian tombs.

Book South Africa and the World

Download or read book South Africa and the World written by Amry Vandenbosch and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first comprehensive study of the foreign policy of South Africa, Amry Vandenbosch focuses attention not only on some of the major problems of a white-dominated African country but also, in wider scope, on three of the chief issues of mid-twentieth century: colonialism, race relations, and collective security. South Africa has inaugurated an outward-looking policy. Its relative strength among the African nations, combined with the domestic difficulties experienced by those weaker nations, has caused Pan-Africanism to lose much of its force and has enabled South Africa to exert even more vigorous leadership on the continent, particularly south of the Sahara. South Africa nevertheless faces many problems, and its outward-looking policy has met with rather limited success. Faced with all its difficulties, dead-end roads, and a strong world opinion condemnatory of apartheid, Vandenbosch argues South African whites must begin to doubt the wisdom of their racial policy and come to accept the idea of its modification.

Book The Story of an African Farm

Download or read book The Story of an African Farm written by Olive Schreiner and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2003-01-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story of an African Farm (1883) marks an early appearance in fiction of Victorian society’s emerging New Woman. The novel follows the spiritual quests of Lyndall and Waldo, who each struggle against social constraints in their search for happiness and truth: Lyndall, against society’s expectations of women, and Waldo against stifling class conventions. Written from the margins of the British empire, the novel addresses the conflicts of race, class, and gender that shaped the lives of European settlers in Southern Africa before the Boer Wars. This Broadview edition includes appendices that link the novel to histories of empire and colonialism, the emergence of the New Woman, and the conflicts between science and religion in the Victorian period. Contemporary reviews are also included.

Download or read book Safari Nation written by Jacob S. T. Dlamini and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Safari Nation opens new lines of inquiry in the study of national parks in Africa and the rest of the world. The Kruger National Park is South Africa’s most iconic nature reserve, renowned for its rich flora and fauna. According to author Jacob Dlamini, there is another side to the park, a social history neglected by scholars and popular writers alike in which blacks (meaning Africans, Coloureds, and Indians) occupy center stage. Safari Nation details the ways in which black people devoted energies to conservation and to the park over the course of the twentieth century—engagement that transcends the stock (black) figure of the laborer and the poacher. By exploring the complex and dynamic ways in which blacks of varying class, racial, religious, and social backgrounds related to the Kruger National Park, and with the help of previously unseen archival photographs, Dlamini’s narrative also sheds new light on how and why Africa’s national parks—often derided by scholars as colonial impositions—survived the end of white rule on the continent. Relying on oral histories, photographs, and archival research, Safari Nation engages both with African historiography and with ongoing debates about the “land question,” democracy, and citizenship in South Africa.
