dc.description.abstract | “Harlequins in a pied parade”? A revisit to early comic poetry in Afrikaans
Some South African newspapers and individuals considered the so-called “Patriot movement” or
First Afrikaans Language Movement’s efforts to transform “the taal” into a literary medium a
joke. Quite ironically, part of the movement’s cultural campaign was based on the production
and encouragement of poetical jokes and light verse. This article firstly deals with the reception
and evaluation of this corpus of humorous poems in the history of Afrikaans literature, secondly
it explores the relations of this cultural manifestation with the context of 19th century European
cultural nationalism and thirdly examins its connections with the broader Dutch and international
literary landscape of the time. | en_US |
