| Purpose: To gain knowledge and an understanding of Afrikaans drama and poetry, and to study these genres critically from a comparative point of view. Specific motifs and notions are foregrounded, such as power-relations in families and society, gender, Afrikaner identity, disability theatre, the slave narrative, anti-patriarchal AIDS and breast cancer elegies, Cape Flats elegies, the discourse on decoloniality, as well as motifs and notions associated with liminality and rites of passage. Texts published shortly before and after the turn of the millennium are scrutinised. |
