    Intertextual strategies in African and Caribbean fiction: discourses of post-independence problem-space in Sylvia Wynter, George Lamming, Grace Odot, and Ngugi Wa Thiongo

    No full text
    “Intertextual Strategies in African and Caribbean Fictions” is concerned with modes of narrative emplotment in post-independence writing in Africa and the Caribbean. In the two regions, anti-colonial narratives have been dominant for some time. These self-determination narratives construct what David Scott calls a “space of experience” where the present has triumphed over the oppression of the past and looks toward a “horizon of expectation” in the post-independence period. These Romance narratives, the work argues along with Scott, have lost their explanatory value. This is because questions that those in the post-liberation period ask have changed, and so the Romance narratives no longer provide answers. The dissertation pays close attention to primary texts and authors. The discussion also includes theoretical and critical texts from both Africa and the Caribbean. It uses Sylvia Wynter’s The Hills of Hebron (1962), George Lamming’s Water with Berries (1971), Grace Ogot’ The Strange Bride (1989), and Ngugi wa Thiongo’s Matigari (1987) to show that the Romance narrative mode of emploting the movement of history is inconsistent with the issues which concern post-independence problem-space. In its consideration of these works, it argues that the problem-space of anti-colonial nationalists should not be taken as a monument entrenched in stone that is designed by its creators to have a fixed meaning. Of course, the connection between anti-colonial nationalists and autonomy is vital; but the novels examined here show that the end of colonial rule also produced significant changes in the consideration of historical form and mode of narrative emplotment. The work argues that the transition from colonial rule to independence demands the emplotment mode of tragedy. It highlights the role of tragedy in historical change at the same time as it demonstrates that the novels discussed here call for a re-imagination in the post-independence problem-space.Ph.

    The wilt disease by fungal and bacterial pathogens is one of the most devastating diseases of tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum L.) worldwide. Chemical-based control of the wilt-causing pathogens often leads to environmental pollution and pest resistance; hence the need for alternative sustainable approaches. We evaluated the in vitro antimicrobial and phytochemical properties of aqueous crude extracts of roots, leaves, flowers, and barks of Solanum incanum L., Laurnea cornuta , Tagetes minuta L., Ageratum conyzoides , Opuntia monacantha , and Euphorbia tirucalli L. from Kano-Kisumu against Erwinia chrysanthema , Ralstonia solanacearum and Fusarium oxysporum isolated from diseased tomato tissues and rhizospheres. Sterile distilled water and the amoxicillin antibiotic were used as negative and positive control treatments, respectively. The experiment was carried out in diameters of zones of inhibition and levels of phytochemicals determined. Ageratum conyzoides and O. monacantha extracts were least effective against the pathogens, with means of inhibition of only up to 8.7 and 12.3 mm, respectively. Euphorbia tirucalli and L. cornuta were the most effective against the pathogens, with means of inhibition of up to 30 mm. Except for anthocyanins and anthraquinones, no significant (P<0.05) differences were observed for levels of other phytochemicals in different plant extracts. We concluded that plant extracts showing remarkable antimicrobial activities against the pathogens can be used to make viable formulations to combat the devastating tomato wilt disease.La maladie fl\ue9trissures caus\ue9e par des agents pathog\ue8nes fongiques et bact\ue9riens est l\u2019une des maladies les plus d\ue9vastatrices de la tomate ( Solanum lycopersicum L.) dans le monde. La lutte chimique contre les agents pathog\ue8nes responsables du fl\ue9trissures entra\ueene souvent une pollution de l\u2019environnement et une r\ue9sistance aux ravageurs; d\u2019o\uf9 la n\ue9cessit\ue9 d\u2019approches alternatives durables.

    Local government and leisure:: A study of two local authorities and their responses to the growth of leisure

    No full text
    Local authorities have a long history of providing recreation and leisure services, but since the 1970s leisure departments have expanded with a corresponding growth in the number and importance of professional officers to run them. Growing affluence and improvements in the quality of life have led to a recognition of the social importance of leisure provision, and more recently its economic importance has been established with the introduction of schemes aimed at rejuvenating local areas. This thesis investigates the internal workings of two neighbouring local authorities in the North East of England. It is a comparative study of the District Councils of Wear Valley and Chester-le-Street, focusing primarily on the importance of leisure services in the public sector. It draws attention to the importance of leisure to justify local government as elected bodies concerned with the overall well-being of their local communities. After considering historical, philosophical and sociological perspectives on leisure, and examining the role of public bodies in the provision of leisure, the thesis proceeds with a detailed analysis of leisure services in Wear Valley and Chester-le-Street in a period of dramatic change. An evaluation of the differences in each District and their responses leads to a consideration of the 'Enabling' role now expected of all local authorities. Although local government is an important element in the British political system, it has been subjected to a plethora of legislation since 1979, aimed at reducing public spending and questioning and controlling the role and purpose of local authorities. The comparison of the two Districts involves an investigation of their internal conduct and business. It finds that leisure services are an increasingly important reasons for maintaining elected local authorities

    Argumentative discourse in the Isixhosa novel Ingqumbo yeminyanya and its English translation wrath of the ancestors: an appraisal-theoretical perspective

    No full text
    English: This study examines the evaluation in translation of argumentative discourse in the isiXhosa novel Ingqumbo yeminyanya and its English translation The wrath of the ancestor. The novel, Ingqumbo yeminyanya is a classical novel in isiXhosa, which is rich in African cultural tradition of Mpondomise Kingdom. The isiXhosa novel was published in 1940 in South Africa and later translated into English by the author with the help of his wife, Priscilla Phyliss Jordan. It was later published as The wrath of the ancestors in 1980. The main theme of the novel revolve around socio-cultural issues as manifested in issues of traditional government in rural context at the time in South Africa. The study applies a multi-perspective framework in investigating the extent to which argumentative equivalence are realised in argumentative segments in the Xhosa source text compared to the English target text. Firstly, the study applies the Pragma-dialectical theory as postulated by Van Eemeren and colleagues (1984, 1992, 1993, 1994, 2003, 2010, 2014, 2015) to analyse argumentative segments from the three broad stages of narrative in the novel, namely, sunrise, noon, and sunset. The properties of argumentative discourse as postulated in the ideal model of pragma-dialectical theory of argumentation are investigated on the selected argumentative segments. The investigation invokes notions of the contextualization of argumentative discourse that contribute to the evaluation and analysis of argumentative discourse. It is argued that the traditional cultural belief system of the characters in the novel influence the manner in which argumentative exchanges are conducted. It is to demonstrate how the context-dependency of these argumentative moves employed by the protagonist and antagonist during the discussion constrain the resolution process of the critical discussion. Secondly, the study examines the presentational devices of argumentative segments with regard to the properties of appraisal in translation as postulated by Munday (2012). The study examines how presentational devices are manifested as tools in argumentation theory, for presenting arguments in the most effective manner. The study invokes the appraisal framework introduced by Munday which stipulates guidelines to explore socio-linguistic properties in the translation of the presentational devices, specifically in identifying critical points that determine argumentative equivalence. Argumentative equivalence in the translated text vary in each argumentative exchange. Instances occur where shifts are not of a major concern because they help the target reader to comprehend the story. However, in some cases where significant shifts are observed, namely, where a significant portion of the narrative content is omitted in the target text. The study invokes the notion of self-translation for investigating such cases. The study demonstrates that argumentative discourse in the context of Mpondomise culture provides new understanding concerning the nature of argumentative patterns and the manifestation of the principles and properties of argumentative theory.Xhosa: Esi sifundo sivavanya inguqulelo yobume bengxoxo-ntetho kuncwadi lwesiXhosa Ingqumbo yeminyanya nenguqulelo yayo yesiNgesi i-The wrath of the ancestors. Ingqumbo yeminyanya yincwadi yesiXhosa, etyebileyo kwinkcubeko namasiko ase-Afrika obukumkani bamaMpondomise. Le ncwadi yesiXhosa yapapashwa ngo-1940 eMzantsi Afrika yaze yaguqulelwa esiNgesini ngumbhali wayo encediswa yinkosikazi yakhe, uPriscilla Phyliss Jordan. Yapapashwa mva ngesihloko The wrath of the ancestors ngo-1980. Umxholo wale noveli ungqongwe bubume-benkcubeko yoburhulumente besintu namasiko aloo maxesha eMzantsi Afrika. Esi sifundo sisebenzise iinkalo ngeenkalo ukuphanda ukuba iingxoxo-ntetho ezikwinoveli yesiXhosa (ST) zifezekisiwe ngokufanayo kwinoveli eyinguqulelo yayo yesiNgesi (TT). Okokuqala, isifundo sisebenzise ithiyori ye-“Pragma-dialectic” eyasekwa ngu-Van Eemeren no-Grootendorst nabalingane babo (1984, 1992, 1993, 1994, 2003, 2010, 2014, 2015) ekuhlalutyeni izicatshulwa zeengxoxo zenoveli kumacandelo amathathu angala; ukuphuma kwelanga, emini maqanda, ukutshona kwelanga. Imiba engundoqo kubume beengxoxo-ntetho njengoko isekiwe kwimodeli yethiyori ye-pragma-dialectic iphandiwe kwizicatshulwa ezikhethiweyo kulencwadi. Uphando luveza iimbono ngesimo nobume bentlalo beengxoxo-ntetho obuthi bongezelele ekuvavanyeni nasekuhlalutyeni iingxoxo ntetho. Kukho imbono ethi amasiko neenkolo zenkcubeko zabalinganiswa kuluncwadi ziphembelela indlela abazibumba ngayo nabanxulumana ngayo kwingxoxo-ntetho. Uphando lubonakalisa indlela iingxoxo-ntetho zomlinganiswa ophambili nochasayo ezixhomekeke ngayo kwisimo nobume bentlalo nendlela ezithi zithintela ngayo ukusonjululwa kwempixano engundoqo. Okwesibini, isifundo sivavanya ubuchule bokubeka umbandela ongundoqo wengxoxo-ntetho malunga nemiba yethiyori ye-“Appraisal in Translation,” eyasekwa ngu-Munday (2012). Esi sifundo sivavanye indlela obubuchule bokubeka umbandela busetyenziswa njengesixhobo sokuxoxa ngempumelelo kwithiyori yengxoxo-ntetho (Argumentation theory). Isifundo sisebenzise isakhiwo se-Appraisal esaqulunqwa ngu-Munday esibeka imiqathango ejonga ubume-bamagama kwinguqulelo yolwimi lwesakhono nobugcisa bokubeka umbandela, ingakumbi apho kujongwa ukufaniswa kwengxoxo-ntetho yenguqulelo (TT) inokuphazamiseka khona. Xa kuthelekiswa ingxoxo-ntetho yoluncwadi lwesiseko (ST) kwizicatshulwa eziguquliweyo lwahlukile kwezenguqulelo yesingesi (TT). Kukho amathuba apho utshintsho lungenzanga mahluko ungako kuba lunceda umfundi wenguqulelo akwazi ukuliqonda ibali. Nangona, kwezinye iimeko kukho utshintsho olumandla, apho umthamo omninzi webali ususiwe kwinguqulelo. Kwimeko ezilolu hlobo esi sifundo siveze imeko ebangwa yinguqulele yombhali oziguqulele ngokwakhe incwadi yakhe (self-translator). Esi sifundo sibonakakisa ukuba isimo nobume bengxoxo-ntetho yenkcubeko yamaMpondomise inika ulwazi olutsha malunga nendlela iingxoxo-ntetho ezilulo, nendlela imiba engundoqo yethiyori yengxoxo-ntetho eyenzeka ngayo.Afrikaans: Hierdie studie ondersoek evaluasie in die vertaling van argumentasie diskoers in die Xhosa novella Ingqumbo yeminyanya en die Engelse vertaling daarvan The warth of the ancestors. Die novelle Ingqumbo yeminyanya is ‘n klasieke prosawerk wat in 1940 gepubliseer is in Suid-Afrika en later in Engels vertaal is deur die outeur met die hulp van sy vrou Priscilla Jordan. Dit is gepubliseer as The warth of the ancestors in 1980. Die hooftema van die novelle sentreer om die sosio-kulturele vraagstukke gemanifesteer in die konteks van vraagstukke van tradisionele regering in Suid-Afrika gedurende die tydperk rondom 1940. Die studie gebruik ‘n multi-perspektief raamwerk in die ondersoek van die mate waartoe argumentasie ekwivalensie gerealiseer word in argumentasie segmente in die Xhosa bronteks in vergelyking met die Engelse teikenteks. Eerstens gebruik die studie die pragma-dialektiese teorie, soos gepostuleer deur Frans van Eemeren en kollegas (1984, 1992, 1993, 1994, 2003, 2010, 2014, 2015) om argumentasie segmente te ontleed uit die drie breë dele van die narratief in die novelle, naamlik sonsopkoms (‘sunrise’), middag (‘noon’) en sonsondergang (‘sunset’). Die kenmerke van argumentasie diskoers soos gepostuleer in die ideale model van die pragma-dialektiese teorie van argumentasie word ondersoek vir geselekteerde argumentasie segmente. Die ondersoek gebruik begrippe rakende die kontekstualisering van argumentasie diskoers wat bydra tot die evaluasie en analise van argumentasie diskoers. Daar word betoog dat die tradisionele kulturele geloofsisteem van die karakters in die novelle die wyse beïnvloed waarop argumentasie interaksies plaasvind. Die studie demonstreer hoe die konteks-afhanklikheid van die argumentasie skuiwe gebruik deur die protagonis en antagonis gedurende die bespreking die resolusieproses in die kritiese bespreking beperk. Die studie ondersoek tweedens hoe die aanbiedingsmiddele van argumentasie segmente met betrekking tot waardebepaling (‘appraisal’) in vertaling, soos gepostuleer deur Munday (2012). Die studie ondersoek hoe aanbiedingsmiddele manifesteer as middele van argumentasieteorie in die aanbieding van argumente op die mees effektiewe wyse. Die studie gebruik die waardebepaling (‘appraisal’) raamwerk van Munday wat riglyne voorstel vir die linguïstiese eienskappe van die vertaling van aanbiedingsmiddele (‘presentational devices’), spesifiek ten opsigte van die identifisering van kritiese punte wat argumentasie ekwivalensie bepaal. Argumentasie ekwivalensie verskil in elke argumentasie interaksie. Gevalle kom voor waar vertalingskuiwe nie van hoofbelang is nie omdat dit die leser help om die storie te verstaan. In sommige gevalle, egter, word skuiwe waargeneem, byvoorbeeld waar ‘n beduidende gedeelte van die narratiewe inhoud weggelaat is in die teikenteks. Die studie gebruik die begrip van ‘self-vertaling’ om sodanige gevalle te ondersoek. Die studie demonstreer dat argumentasie diskoers in konteks ‘n nuwe begrip bied rakende die aard van argumentasiepatrone en die manifestasie van die beginsels en eienskappe van argumentasieteorie.National Research Foundation (NRF

    Creating 3D models of cultural heritage sites with terrestrial laser scanning and 3D imaging

    No full text
    Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references.The advent of terrestrial laser-scanners made the digital preservation of cultural heritage sites an affordable technique to produce accurate and detailed 3D-computermodel representations for any kind of 3D-objects, such as buildings, infrastructure, and even entire landscapes. However, one of the key issues with this technique is the large amount of recorded points; a problem which was even more intensified by the recent advances in laser-scanning technology, which increased the data acquisition rate from 25 thousand to 1 million points per second. The following research presents a workflow for the processing of large-volume laser-scanning data, with a special focus on the needs of the Zamani initiative. The research project, based at the University of Cape Town, spatially documents African Cultural Heritage sites and Landscapes and produces meshed 3D models, of various, historically important objects, such as fortresses, mosques, churches, castles, palaces, rock art shelters, statues, stelae and even landscapes
