This thesis examines the writings of Nobel Laureate J. M. Coetzee in order to explore pressing issues that have emerged in literary, philosophical, and theoretical approaches to animal studies. These include animals as disputed objects in claims to territorial, national, and cultural belonging; and the use of animality to manage cultural difference and mobilize identity-based violence. I investigate the roles that hierarchical discourses of species, and the rhetorics of animality that mobilize them, play in cultural and social inscription, cross-cultural conflict, and cultures of violence in the writing of J.M. Coetzee. My dissertation provides historical, material, and cultural context and specificity to the entanglements of race, gender, and culture with the rhetoric and hermeneutics of species, by demonstrating how colonial, Enlightenment, and traditional humanist thought mobilizes speciesism for the cultural work of violence. Intervening in assumptions about the irreconcilability of animal- and human-endorsing approaches to animal studies, I demonstrate that human and non-human animals alike are mutually implicated in conceptual economies that employ animality as a trope; and in the material logistics that mobilize discourses that surround nonhuman animals to do violence to human and nonhuman animals. Coetzee embeds questions about what nonhuman animals mean, or more precisely are made to mean, firmly within the broader politics of interpreting and recognizing alterity, regardless of species, while asking how animals might have a place—in our worlds, in our thought, and in our interventionist strategies—as more than means to human ends. Coetzee’s fictional and critical engagements with nonhuman animals, I argue, comprise a major reassessment of the codes of, and struggles concerning, human and nonhuman animal correspondence and difference. Highlighting the complex interrelations between the cross-cultural violence that mobilizes the rhetoric of species and its attendant violations of nonhuman animal life, Coetzee challenges speciesist schemata that give nonhuman animals symbolic and material currency by imagining how we might read across species differently, in ways that affirm, rather than master, nonhuman animal life. / Thesis (Ph.D, English) -- Queen's University, 2013-06-04 16:52:47.618

The aim of this study is to investigate conflict as a literary technique in general, and in J. M. Ntsime's play, Pelo e ja Serati, in particular. The discussion will focus on the structural causes and the effect of conflict in drama. The study comprises seven chapters. The aim, scope and methods of research are outlined and motivated in chapter one. The second chapter provides background about Ntsime's text. This mise en scene includes a plot summary, discussion of the genre of the play as well as information about the cast of characters. The chapter further considers some of the aspects upon which conflict relies, including characterisation, naming and setting. The third chapter offers some theoretical perspectives on conflict in general. These serve to determine the nature of conflict and its importance in drama. Chapter four deals with the structural analysis of conflict in Pelo e ja Serati. Emphasis is placed on the internal structure of conflict, to demonstrate its vital role in the development of dramatic action, from the beginning of the play through to its conclusion. Chapter five explores the relationship between dialogue and conflict in the play. It explores the ways in which dialogue develops and sustains conflict, Chapter six focuses on the style of the author. It discusses general stylistic techniques, including poetic language, imagery, proverbs and idioms. Particular attention was given to the use of these devices in Pelo e ja Serati and the manner in which they develop and sustain the conflict. Chapter seven revisits the main points of the study. By way of conclusion, I argued that the moral and ethical lessons portrayed by Ntsime in Pelo e ja Serati remain relevant to today's reader/audience. / Thesis (MA)--PU for CHE, 1999

The aim of this study was to explore representation and use of character in J. M. Ntsime's play, Pelo e ja Serati, with special reference to the ways in which the general attitudes and thinking processes of the characters are influenced by the social environment in which they find themselves. Conflict between traditional and modern marriage customs, a major theme of Ntsime's play, will also be examined. Although this study confines itself to Ntsime's drama, it intends to highlight the significance of characterisation in plays generally. Reference will be made to the views of, inter alia, Levitt, Pfister and Barry. This study comprises a total of seven chapters, including the introduction which details the aim, scope and method of research. Chapter two provides a backdrop to the analysis, exploring the life and career of J. M. Ntsime and also summarises the cast of characters and the plot of Pelo e ia Serati. Following this mise en scene, chapter three takes up the concept of "characterisation" and considers the author's use of setting (temporal as well as geographical) and the significance of place names. Chapter four focuses on one of Ntsime's most effective methods of characterisation, his naming of the characters. Chapter five examines Ntsime's use of imagery and comparison. Chapter six considers the crucial role of conflict in Peto e ja Serati. Here, I examine the fundamental conflict between traditional and modern marriage customs as well as the character Dithole's personal struggle between duty/destiny and desire. Chapter seven concludes this minidissertation by considering, in the spirit of comedy, the lessons about social change contained in the play. / Thesis (MA)--PU for CHE, 1999
