2	Om die verlede te bemeester : geheue en identiteit in die prosa van Dana Snyman Pereira, Paula Naude 03 1900 (has links) Aspects of memory and identity with reference to the prose of Dana Snyman will be reflected in this research report. Concepts from memory studies, such as cultural and collective memory, collective identity as well as nostalgia and loss will serve as the matrix for a reading of his narratives. The reception of Weg, an Afrikaans outdoor magazine (and specifically the contri- butions by Snyman) amongst readers typified as the Weg-generation will be studied. Since the political transformation of 1994, there has been a renewed attempt by Afri- kaners to explore their identity and status in the new dispensation. Snyman’s nostalgic representation of this process can be linked to a current trend in Afrikaans literature where identity and roots are explored in order to redefine Self and Other. His stories document the Afrikaner culture of a bygone era with a view of coming to terms with that past. / Afrikaans / Thesis (M.A. (Afrikaans)) Snyman, Dana Collective identity Afrikaner culture Afrikaner identity Nostalgia 839.3636 Collective memory -- South Africa Group identity -- South Africa Group identity in literature Nostalgia in literature Afrikaners -- History Afrikaners -- Ethnic identity Loss (Psychology) in literature
