Die skep van ruimte in ’n roman, met verwysing na die drie koepelromans van Hans du Plessis
Die doel van hierdie artikel is om die toepassing van ruimte as skeppingselement in drie romans met dieselfde narratiewe ruimte te ondersoek. Dit gaan om die transformasie van 'n werklike geografiese ruimte na die narratiewe ruimte binne die teoretiese raamwerk van die skryfkuns as vakdissipline en met verwysing na die kulturele geografie en Andries Bezuidenhout se uiteensetting van die teoretiese skema van Wesley Kort en dié van die geograaf David Harvey, ten einde ruimtelikheid meer eksplisiet te teoretiseer.
Die bespreking vind plaas teen die agtergrond van die sogenaamde "navorsing deur praktyk", wat deesdae 'n betreklik algemene model vir navorsing in die skeppende kunste is. Omdat die verband tussen die skryfteorie en -praktyk vooropgestel word, is dit logies dat die skrywer se eie prosawerk as verwysing gebruik word. Dit gaan om die drie Koepelromans van Hans du Plessis, naamlik Verbrande paradys (2009), Die pad na Skuilhoek (2012) en As die wind kom draai (2013). Die ruimte in die drie romans is die geografies identifiseerbare Vredefortkoepel naby Potchefstroom, die grootste en oudste meteorietimpakkrater ter wêreld. Dit is deur Unesco as wêrelderfenisgebied gelys. Die romans verskil in meer as een opsig van mekaar omdat eersgenoemde 'n eietydse roman is, terwyl laasgenoemde twee historiese romans is. Verder is die eerste twee oorgangsromans en die laaste 'n roman vir volwassenes. Die interaksie tussen mens en natuur word aanvaar en daarmee saam ook die feit dat verskillende mense (ook karakters in die roman) dieselfde omgewing verskillend sal ervaar. Die skep van ruimte in die roman is uiteindelik die skep van 'n sin van plek. Daar word uitgegaan van die standpunt dat die narratiewe ruimte die skep van 'n fiktiewe deiktiese sentrum veronderstel. Die deiktiese sentrum in die roman is per definisie dié van die fokalisator. In die artikel word aangevoer dat ruimte as skeppingsmiddel hanteer kan word soos wat die skryfkuns die skep van 'n karakter in drie fases hanteer. Ten slotte word hierdie teoretiese uitgangspunte geïllustreer deur voorbeelde uit die genoemde romans.
ABSTRACT: The creation of space in a novel, with reference to the three dome novels by Hans du Plessis
This article discusses the creation of space with reference to three Afrikaans novels by Hans du Plessis: Verbrande paradys (Burnt paradise) (2009), Die pad na Skuilhoek (The road to Skuilhoek) (2011) and As die wind kom draai (When the wind starts turning) (2013). The article investigates the novelist's use of space as a creative element in the transformation of a location that exists in reality to the narrative space in the said novels. This is done within the framework of the theory of creative writing as discipline and with reference to cultural geography and Andries Bezuidenhout's (2013) discussion of the theoretical scheme of Wesley Kort and of David Harvey, in order to achieve a more explicit theory of space.
The research was undertaken within the framework of the theory of practice-based research, a model often used in research within the study of arts. Breed and Greyling (2010:86) are convinced that this research method recognises the link between theory and practice, as well as the relevance of the theoretical and philosophical paradigms for the contemporary arts practitioner. This is one of the main reasons why the novels written by the author of this article are used as illustrative material.
The theory of space has been widely discussed in literary theory, philosophy, creative writing studies and environmental studies, and it is accepted as being a diverse wide-ranging issue, because there is a marked interaction between the human being and space. The issue of sense of place, it is argued, is in fact the data from reality that has to be transformed when writing fictional prose. Sense of place refers to features that are unique to a certain place, and these are experienced by the inhabitants of that place.
Furthermore, it is theoretically accepted in the article that cultures are locatable and specific phenomena, whereas culture includes everything we do in our daily lives, and in which space is central. Against the background of cultural geography the growing interest in various forms of literature as a way of investigating the meaning of landscapes is discussed. Literature is not objective; instead, subjectivity speaks about the social meanings of places.
This article takes intimate, social and extensive space through narrative space in literary texts into consideration. Through the use of absolute, relative and relational space, material and represented space offer a framework to bring abstract and symbolic issues together. Seeing that social space implies both inclusion and exclusion, there should be a connection between space of thought and social space.
The texts referred to in the article are discussed as examples of moral agency.http://reference.sabinet.co.za.nwulib.nwu.ac.za/sa_epublication/litnethttp://reference.sabinet.co.za.nwulib.nwu.ac.za/document/EJC14772
Tracing American Diplomacy: A Survey of Diplomatic Theory from Before and After the Cold War
This thesis examines different writings on diplomatic theory to see how philosophical and pragmatic attitudes of diplomacy changed from before and after the Cold War. The scope of this research includes contributions from the following authors: Hans J. Morgenthau, Hedley Bull, Alexander Wendt, Henry Kissinger, Cecil Crabb, Joseph Nye, Etan Gilboa, Hussein Agha, and Paul Sharp. Morgenthau and Bull represent the American attitudes on diplomacy coming out of the second World War with close ties to traditional international relations theories. Wendt, Kissinger, and Crabb’s work all come from the height of tensions in the Cold War, and the rest of the authors surveyed represent the post-Cold War era of American diplomacy. This thesis finds a clear trend in how diplomatic theory changed pragmatically and philosophically from before and after the cold war, with peaks in philosophy before and after and a peak in pragmatism during the Cold War

Quest and Place in Carl Hansen and Hans Christian Andersen
Carl Hansen and Hans Christian Andersen demonstrate a number of similar characteristics as authors. Both wrote their stories with their respective readership in mind. Both authors strove to establish character and setting with as few words as possible. Both knew their audiences well and made use of scenes, places, and experiences that their readers recognized. Each man was also driven to become an author, albeit for slightly different reasons. Hans Christian Andersen was, according to Sven H. Rossel, single-minded in pursuit of art and recognition, 1 while Carl Hansen relates that some five years before he emigrated to the United States he [had] caught the disease \u27digteritis,\u27 the nagging urge to write and be published. 2 They both demonstrate as well an understanding of the folkloric concepts of quest and place. The goal of this paper will be to show how they represent these concepts by comparing three short stories by Carl Hansen with three of Andersen\u27s well-known tales

Légalité et légitimité : réflexions sur les leçons de Weimar selon David Dyzenhaus
Comment comprendre la relation entre « légalité » et « légitimité » ? Devant ce problème capital, l'auteur propose une analyse et une réflexion en matière de philosophie du droit sur l'ouvrage majeur de David Dyzenhaus intitulé Legality and Legitimacy. Carl Schmitt, Hans Kelsen and Hermann Hellerin Weimar. Il analyse la proposition de Dyzenhaus selon laquelle les leçons que nous devons tirer de l'échec de la République de Weimar et de ses théoriciens du droit, Schmitt, Kelsen et Heller, consistent à opter pour une version moderne du jusnaturalisme insistant sur la justification démocratique et éthique du droit. À l'opposé de cette opinion, que l'auteur critique, il propose plutôt de voir la légitimité comme issue d'une perspective envisageant le citoyen à titre d'auteur du droit, ce qui lui permet de comparer Habermas et Dyzenhaus.How should one address the relationship between « legality » and « legitimacy » ? Faced with this fundamental issue, the author proposes an analysis and deliberation delving into the philosophy of law based on the major treatise of David Dyzenhaus entitled Legality and Legitimacy. Carl Schmitt, Hans Kelsen and Hermann Heller in Weimar. He analyzes Dyzenhaus' proposal according to which the lessons to be drawn from Dyzenhaus' proposal according to which the lessons to be drawn from the failure of the Weimar Republic and its legal theoreticians, consist in electing a modern version of «jusnaturalism » emphasizing the democratic and ethical justification of law. At odds with this view, that the author criticizes, he prefers seeing legitimacy as that which arises from a perspective of the citizen as the author of law, which enables him to compare Habemas and Dyzenhaus
