Une lettre à Jan van Riebeeck Reconsidérer les connexions transnationales dans la poésie contemporaine en afrikaans vernaculaire

This article examines selected poems in vernacular Afrikaans about the colonial experience and its afterlife. Ronelda Kamfer and Nathan Trantraal’s works expose obscured dimensions of a conventional encoding of Dutch-South African relations, understood as stamverwantschap (tribal kinship). They also consider the impact of this historical period on social relations and lived experience, thus giving voice to minoritised subjects and rethinking transnational entanglements between Europe and Africa.
