Health and religion : a study of health-seeking behaviour in Kayamandi, Western Cape in the context of "medical pluralism"

Gwele, Malibongwe P January 2005 (has links)
This small-scale study explores the concept of medical pluralism by looking at the health-seeking strategies of a selected group of residents in Stellenbosch's Kayamandi township. The study addresses the following three primary research questions: What are the health-seeking strategies of the target group? What factors significantly influence their health-seeking behaviour; and why are the respondents using more than one health-seeking strategy? We have used theoretical formulations derived from literature together with data we collected by questionnaires and interviews to respond to these questions. Our target group consisted of a mix of isiXhosa-speaking Christians, which fall into one of the following three groupings: Ecumenical, African Independent Zionists, and African Independent Non-Zionists. We applied a variety of methods to collect our data namely: survey questionnaire, in depth interviews and a focus group interview. Basic statistical and qualitative analysis techniques were used to analyze the data. We tested various potential variables before we concluded that Christian affiliation and gender are two major variables in this study that seem to influence our respondents' choices of strategy. The resulting data indicated that almost all of our respondents are mixing health seeking strategies. They are mixing in two ways: either in a complex way (multiple health seeking strategies for a single ailment), or a simple way (different strategies for different ailments). Even though Western Medicine is a dominant and the only legalized health-seeking strategy in South Africa this research suggests that there is a growing use of other health-seeking strategies, either alternatively or complementarily to Western Medicine. Reasons for this are discussed in this research report, and include firstly, conviction of experience and knowledge of health and illness among others. Secondly, we have established that these determinants transcend accessibility and availability of, particularly, Western medicine facilities. Respondents utilize three different health-seeking strategies selectively through 'border crossing' with minimal conflict.

Outrageous women: a comparison of five passages within the canonical passion and empty tomb narratives emphasizing the role of women

Taylor, Birgit January 2004 (has links)
This dissertation seeks to further develop the existing appreciation of the role of women around Jesus, by analysing selected texts within the canonical passion and empty tomb narratives. One of the issues that will be explored concerns the historicity and significance of the canonical empty tomb tradition, in which women are portrayed as the primary witnesses to the empty tomb and the resurrection. By tracing the history and the development of five selected texts within the canonical passion and empty tomb narratives, this dissertation will explore the role and function of women around Jesus. In addition, I will endeavour to motivate the inclusion and portrayal of women in these canonical texts based on a comparison of the treatment of these women by the canonical gospel writers. In order to re-evaluate the significance of the illustrated behaviour of women in the canonical passion and empty tomb narratives, five texts will be examined, beginning with the tradition of the woman anointing Jesus. The actions described in these texts will be situated within the socio-cultural context of first-century Palestine and compared to the funerary customs prevalent in Ancient Judaism. Furthermore the historicity and transmission history of these texts will be examined by applying both redaction criticism and tradition history to the texts. This dissertation will demonstrate that the tradition of the woman anointing Jesus and the tradition at the empty tomb depict behaviour, which is contrary to the culturally expected conduct of women regarding funerary customs within Ancient Judaism. However. the texts containing women's activities before. during and immediately after the passion narratives illustrate conduct. that corresponds to the customary mourning practices. Redactional analyses of the texts further indicate the awkwardness of portraying women as credible witnesses within the androcentric character of the patriarchal culture in first-century Palestine. This dissertation argues that. in terms of the criterion of cultural dissimilarity. the anointing tradition and the empty tomb tradition are most likely based on early forms of the traditions emerging during the oral period. This suggests strongly that women were the first witnesses to the empty tomb.

From phraseology to reality : a "theological geography" : Bonhoeffer's early travels and the notion of the boundary

Steiner, Robert January 2004 (has links)
Includes bibliographical references. / This thesis examines Dietrich Bonhoeffer's "turning from the phraseological to the real" during his early journeys abroad as recorded in his diary notes and letters. Our interest in the maps and stories of travels operative in Bonhoeffer's life coincides with a prevalence of metaphors of travel and displacement in contemporary literary and cultural criticism and acknowledges the movements of "powerful" travellers across boundaries and continents in the context of imperialism and colonialism.
