PhD (Xitsonga) / Ndzavisiso lowu wu xopaxopa ntlhanu wa mihlengelo wa tibuku ta vutlhokovetseri leti tsariweke hi vatsari vo hambana. Tsalwa rin’wana na rin’wana ri xopaxopile hi ku tirhisa maendlelo ya matsalwa na vundzeni bya wona hi xikongomelo xo thumba swihlawulekisinene na nkalaswihlawulekisinene. Switlhokovetselo leswi hlawuriweke swi xopaxopiwile hi xikongomelo xo twisisa nhlokomhaka na vundzeni bya leswi mihlengelo ya vutlhokovetseri yi vulaka kumbe ku yimela swona. Maendlelo yo pimanisa tanihi maendlelo ya vuthekiniki ya matsalwa ya tirhisiwile ku tisa ku twisisa na ku hundzuluxa mavonelo hi ku xopaxopiwa ka swikhedzakhedzana leswi yelanaka. Xikongomelonkulu xa ndzavisiso i ku xopaxopa na ku kombisa mikongomelo yo hambanahambana eka mihlengelo ya ntlhanu leyi hlawuriweke. Ndzavisiso lowu wu ringetile ku humesela erivaleni mikongomelo ya vutlhokovetseri lebyi tsariweke hi nkarhi wa xihlawuhlawu na hi wa xidemokirasi tanihi loko matsalwa lama tirhisiweke ma tsariwile hi mikarhi yo hambana na malembe yo hambana. Ndzavisiso lowu wu simekiwile ehenhla ka thiyori ya Braun and Clarke ya thematiki, laha va kombisaka leswaku thiyori ya thematiki i ndlela ya ku xopaxopa hi xikongomelo xo lava ku kuma leswi nchumu wu yimelaka swona kumbe ku vula swona. Nxopaxopo lowu wu humeserile erivaleni ndlela leyi vatsari va titwisa xiswona hi nkarhi wa ntshikelelo na wa xidemokirasi eAfrika-Dzonga. Hi ku angarhela, ndzavisiso lowu wu “qualitative”. Matsalwa lama xopaxopiweke hi lama landzelaka: Chochela-mandleni (1965) hi Masebenza BJ, Macakala ya mieehleketo (1982) hi Mayevu GS, Mbita ya vulombe (1988) hi Nkondo WZ, Vutomi byi hundzulerile (1996) hi Malungana SJ na Babane MT, Ri ta pela (2009) hi Magaisa TP, Xikolokolo nguvu ya Pitori (1987) hi Magaisa JM, Rihojahoja ra vutlhokovetseri (1996) hi Marhanele MM, Nkwangulatilo II (1998) hi Makhuba NC, Mbita ya nsuku (2008) hi Nxumalo WS na Maluleke NJ, Xihungasi (1973) hi Maphalakasi GJ. / NRF
