It also attempts to undo some of the bias of the past and holds a warning to society in general to respect the culture and beliefs of others in society in general to respect the culture and beliefs of others in society. Secondly it shows that Reenen van Reenen was seldom mentioned in rock art literature in spite of the fact that he had written an important early book on San culture and that he was the very first researcher of San rock art who made exact tracings in the San rock art sites in the Orange Free State.\u0000Reenen van Reenen (1884-1935) se poging om die Afrikaner se beskouing van San-rotskuns te verander\u0000Die doelwit van die artikel is tweevoudig: eerstens is dit 'n poging om aan te dui dat kulturele seleksie van wat betekenisvol en wat van geen belang is nie, 'n direkte invloed het op die insameling van historiese data oor kulturele bates. Dit is ook 'n poging om die vooroordeel van die verlede ongedaan te maak en rig 'n waarskuwing aan die gemeenskap in die algemeen om die kultuur en geloof van ander in die gemeenskap te respekteer. Tweedens toon dit aan dat daar in rotskunsliteratuur selde na Reenen van Reenen verwys word, ten spyte daarvan dat hy 'n belangrike vroee boek oor San-kultuur geskryf het en dat hy die eerste navorser oor San-rotskuns was wat presiese aftreksels in die San-rotskunsterreine in die Oranje-Vrystaat gemaak het.","PeriodicalId":40076,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Cultural History","volume":"26 1","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70618275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Roux","doi":"10.4314/SAJCH.V25I2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4314/SAJCH.V25I2","url":null,"abstract":"Die nederige melkstoeltjie word gewoonlik slegs met melkery geassosieer. Hier word ondersoek ingestel na 'n breer begrip van konteks en kultuurhistoriese betekenis aan die hand van enkele illustrasies in Engelse en Afrikaanse kinderlektuur - veral prenteboeke en rymbundels - en uitbeeldings in Suid-Afrikaanse politieke spotprente. Verbande met 'n skamel en edel landelike, selfs landboukundige bestaan, figureer in illustrasies uit kinderboeke waar drie- en vierpootstoeltjies as doelbewuste, of toevallige, rekwisiete voorkom. In beeld dra die grootte van die voorwerp hier by tot 'n intieme skaal. Dit dien, minstens in kinderlektuur tot laat in die twintigste eeu, as geloofwaardige en herkenbare voorwerpe waarvan die grootte en eenvoud toeganklik vir die jong kyker en leser was.\u0000In Suid-Afrikaanse politieke spotprente dien driepotige melkstoeltjies verder as kenbare simbool van 'n kwesbare ewewig in die politiek, waar die strukturele stabiliteit en interafhanklikheid van drie pote metafories verbeeld word. Hierdie metafoor word ook so gebruik in eietydse vakliteratuur in Engels, Nederlands en Vlaams. Die tradisionele begrip van die amper-vergete melkstoeltjie leef dus deur beeldspraak in die 21ste eeu voort.\u0000Context and cultural-historical meaning of the milking stool, as depicted in children's literature and political cartoons\u0000The humble milking stool is usually associated only with dairy production. This article investigates a broader context and socio-historical meaning portrayed in selected illustrations in English and Afrikaans children's literature - especially picture books and volumes of rhyme - and depictions in South African political cartoons. In children's books, where three- and four-legged milking stools appear as either purposeful or accidental theatrical properties, they represent a meagre and noble rural, even agrarian, existence. For their size, they often contribute to the setting of an intimate scale. At least until late in the twentieth century, they are employed as credible and recognisable objects of a scale and simplicity that is easily accessible to the young viewer and reader.\u0000Three-legged milking stools especially serve as symbols of a vulnerable stability in South African political cartoons, where the structural stability and co-dependence of three legs are often portrayed metaphorically. This metaphor is also widely used in contemporary English, Dutch and Flemish scholarly texts. Through this figure of speech, the traditional notion of the almost forgotten milking stool survives into the twenty first century.","PeriodicalId":40076,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Cultural History","volume":"25 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70618134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Die taalverwantskap tussen die Afrikaners en Vlaminge het 'n sentrale rol in hierdie tydperk gespeel. Wedersydse taal- en kultuurbande was van deurslaggewende belang. Vlaandere het nog altyd vanwee sy geskiedenis van taalstryd teen Franse oorheersing 'n groot begrip getoon vir die strewe van die Afrikaner om sy eie identiteit te bewaar en uit te bou. Die Vlaminge het dus tradisioneel meer simpatiek teenoor Afrikaans en die Afrikaner gestaan. In die artikel word 'n aantal aspekte van die taal- en kulturele wisselwerking ontleed. Onder meer word op die Afrikaanse letterkunde, letterkundige en kulturele tydskrifte, die Kultuurverdrag, Afrikaanse liedere en sang en Afrikaanse voordrag en toneel gefokus.\u0000Language and cultural interaction between Flanders and South Africa during the apartheid era : An analysis\u0000During the apartheid era there was a lively cultural interaction between Flanders, the northern Dutch-speaking regional state of Belgium, and South Africa. The kinship between the Afrikaners and the Flemish people played a central role in this period. Mutual language and cultural ties were of primary importance. Because of their own language struggle against French domination, Flanders had a better understanding of the striving of the Afrikaner to maintain his own identity. Traditionally the people in Flanders have thus been more sympathetic towards the Afrikaans language and the Afrikaner. In this article a few aspects of the language and cultural interaction will be analysed. It will inter alia focus on the Afrikaans literature, literary and cultural journals, the Cultural Accord, Afrikaans song and Afrikaans elocution and theatre.","PeriodicalId":40076,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Cultural History","volume":"25 1","pages":"131-147"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70618313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Afrikaners wou die Afrikaanse taal en die kunste in die algemeen, maar veral koorsang uitbou. Dit het bygedra tot die stigting van die Federasie vir Afrikaanse Kultuurvereniginge (1929-), die Johannesburgse Kunsvereniging, die Johannesburgse Afrikaanse Skrywerskring en 'n sterker Afrikaanse pers in die Goudstad. Mnr J.B.Z. Keet was die koordirigent vir byna 42 jaar en hy was oortuig van die positiewe invloed wat koorsang op sowel sangers as luisteraars kon uitoefen. Die koor het gereeld aan kunswedstryde, eredienste en Afrikaanse kultuur- en volksfeeste deelgeneem. Van 1934 af het die koor ook met die SAUK saamgewerk, dikwels met begeleiding deur die SAUK-simfonieorkes. Komposisies soos Elia van Mendelssohn, die Requiems van Mozart en Verdi, Beethoven se Negende Simfonie, Bach se Mattheuspassie en Handel se Messias was deel van hulle repertorium. Koorsang is ook deur Keet in ander sentrums aan die Witwatersrand aangemoedig.

This contributed to the founding of the Federasie vir Afrikaanse Kultuurvereniginge (1929-), the Johannesburg Art Society, the Johannesburg Afrikaanse Skrywerskring and a more powerful Afrikaans press in Johannesburg. Mr J.B.Z. Keet conducted the choir for almost 42 years and he was convinced that choir singing could benefit choristers and listeners alike. The choir performed regularly at eisteddfods, church services and Afrikaans cultural and folk festivals. From 1934 the choir also cooperated with the SABC, often with accompaniment by the SABC symphony orchestra. Compositions such as Elijah by Mendelssohn, the Requiems of Mozart and Verdi, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Bach's St Matthew Passion and Handel's Messiah formed part of their repertoire. Keet also encouraged choir singing in other regions of the Witwatersrand. Danie van den Heever succeeded Keet as conductor of the ASAF choir in 1963.","PeriodicalId":40076,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Cultural History","volume":"24 1","pages":"58-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70617774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
