novels in two major periods, namely the early period (1925 to 1970s) and the later period (1970s
to 1990s). Five Sesotho novels will be discussed in each period and give an indication of tragic
expression in that period. It is however not the main emphasis in this work to compare and
contrast between the two periods but mainly to observe patterns of tragedy and tragic expressions
in Sesotho novels.
Chapter One orientates the reader by indicating aspects such as the problem identification, aim
of the research, the approach or modus operandi, the scope as well as the organisation of the
study, that is, a brief arrangement of chapters and presentation of what would be contained in
subsequent chapters.
Chapter Two presents the theoretical framework within which the research will be based. As
the theoretical framework in this work, aspects of tragedy, namely, character, plot and theme will
be discussed.
Chapter Three focuses on the early Sesotho tragedies within the literary period 1925 to 1970s.
As already indicated, five novels, namely, Chaka, Mphatlalatsane, Moiketsi, Mosali a nkhola,
and Leshala Ie tswala molora will be discussed in terms of the theoretical principles suggested in
Chapter Two. At the end of the chapter, an analysis of the findings and conclusions will be
drawn on tragic expressions in these novels. These novels distinguish themselves as largely
classical tragedies (there are modern ones also) in terms of the nature of tragic characters
available.
Chapter Four examines the later Sesotho tragedies ranging between the period 1970s to 1990s.
As in early Sesotho novels, five novels will be discussed with a view to highlight tragic
expressions in this period. Peo ena ejetswe ke wena, Mehaladitwe ha e eketheha, Nna ke mang,
Ke lesheleshele leo a iphehletseng lona and Lehlaba la lephako will be the novels we analyse.
Analysis of the findings will be made and conclusions drawn at the end of the chapter in how tragedy is expressed in all these novels. These novels distinguish themselves as largely modern
tragedies in terms of the tragic characters portrayed in them.
Chapter Five presents the general conclusions on all the novels discussed in the two periods. A
comparison will be made as to how tragic expression differs from one period to another
particularly in terms of the three aspects of tragedy. Each novel will be given the individual
attention and focussed exclusively as to how it presents tragedy and how perhaps it differs from
others. / SESOTHO ABSTRACT: Ka mosebetsi ona wa diphuputso re hlahloba ka moo mahlomola a totobatswang ka teng

romans gedurende hoofsaaklik twee periodes, naamlik, die vroeere periode (1925
tot die 1970's) en die latere periode (1970 tot die 1990's) te ondersoek. Vyf Suid-Soetoe
romans sal bespreek word rakende elke periode en sal 'n aanduiding gee van die tragedie
gedurende die betrokke periode. Dit is egter nie die hoofdoel van die werk om
vergelykings en onderskeidinge tussen die twee periodes te tref nie, maar eerder om
tragedie en tragiese elemente binne Suid-Soetoe romans te bespreek.
Hoofstuk Een se doel sal wees om die leser te orienteer aangesien dit aspekte soos die
probleem identifikasie, die doel van die studie, die omvang en die voorlopige navorsing
gemaak in terme van ander navorsingswerke rakende die onderwerp bevat, naamlik,
vorige studies rakende die karakter in Suid-Soetoe romans met spesifieke verwysing na
tragiese karakters. Die hoofstuk sal ook die uiteensetting van die studie, soos die uitleg
van die hoofstukke en inhoud van daaropvolgende hoofstukke bevat, bespreek.
Hoofstuk Twee stel die teoretiese raamwerk bekend waarop die navorsing gebasseer is.
As deel van die raamwerk, sal aspekte van die tragedie soos karakter, intrige en tema
bespreek word. Hierdie teoretiese aspekte sal dan toegepas word op Suid-Soetoe romans
in opvolgende hoofstukke.
Hoofstuk Drie fokus op die vroeere Suid-Soetoe tragedies binne die literere periode
1925 tot 1970s. Vyf romans, naamlik Chaka, Mphatlalatsane, Moiketsi, Mosali a nkhola
en Leshala Ie tswala rnolora sal bespreek word in terme van teoretiese beginsels genoem
in Hoofstuk Twee. Aan die einde van die hoofstuk sal 'n analise gemaak word van die
bevindinge en gevolgtrekkings rakende die tragedie se voorkoms in hierdie romans.
Hierdie romans onderskei hulself grootliks as klassieke tragedies in terme van die
tragiese karakters se voorkoms.
Hoofstuk Vier ondersoek die latere Suid-Soetoe tragedies gedurende die tydperk 1970 tot 1990. Soos in die vroeere tydperk, sal vyf romans bespreek word met die doel om die
aspekte van tragedie te aksentueer. Peo ena e jetswe ke wena, Mehaladitwe ha e
eketheha, Nna ke mang, Ke lesheleshele leo a iphehletseng lona en Lehlaba la lephako
sal romans wees waarop gefokus word. 'n Analise van die bevindinge en
gevolgtrekkings sal gemaak word aan die einde van die hoofstuk en sal die voorkoms van
die tragedie in al die romans beskryf. Hierdie romans onderskei hulself hoofsaaklik as
moderne tragedies in terme van die tragiese karakters se voorkoms.
Hoofstuk Vyf verskaf algemene gevolgtrekkings waartoe gekom is in die voorafgaande
bespreking van die genoemde twee periodes. 'n Vergelyking sal gemaak word oor hoe
die voorkoms van die tragedie verskil van een periode na die ander, rakende die tragiese
figuur. Elke roman sal individuele aandag kry en klem sal gele word op hoe dit verskil
van ander romans.
