Letters to a Young Theologian
0Theology is, for many, far more than a profession. It is an identity, a passion, a way of life. While books on theology are countless, books on the identity of the theologian are all too rare. In this helpful volume, Henco van der Westhuizen has assembled an outstanding and diverse array of theologians who each offer their wisdom and reflection on what it means to be a theologian through a letter written to someone considering the field. Each letter is as unique as its author, and together they form a rich symphony on the art and craft of being a theologian.

Liber Amicorum
0Though some may categorise this work as a memorial publication, this book of friends is truly a celebratory publication by colleagues from Africa and beyond who had the privilege to know Edwell and Mathias personally. It is a tribute to the life and work of two individuals that each made a unique contribution to social justice, law and its development. As evidenced by the Tributes and Lists of Publications contained herein, both Edwell and Nyenti (as they were colloquially known) were productive scholars but they leave a legacy that extends beyond the academic realm to that of friendship and shared humanity.

Lig Wankelend
0Op 24 November 1949 kom Utte Reuter alleen in Kaapstad-hawe aan; saam met haar dra sy twee pakkies briewe en ‘n digbundel van Rilke. Sy is hier om te trou met Christiaan Hofmeyr, die broer van haar penvriendin, wat ‘n uitkoms bied van die verskrikking en nadraai van die Tweede Woreldoorlog. Maar gou verlang Utte huis toe, na ‘n woreld wat vir altyd vir haar vernietig is. In Suid-Afrika voel sy ontuis, in Europa is sy onthuis. Utte se verhaal word vertel vanuit haar laaste tuiste: die kliniese wit kamer in die tehuis waar sy opgeneem is vir Alzheimers. Hier, in ‘n gestroopte ruimte, verlaat van al die mense om haar, sonder haar geliefde Rilke-boeke en briewe, dink Utte terug aan die liefde en die aard van haar lewe. Aan die swaels en walvisse en Tierkop, die lindeboom in die agtertuin van haar Leipzig-huis, die kombuis met die porselein-opwasbak, die plakpapier teen mure waar sy saans gelo en tel het tot sy aan die slaap raak. Sy dink aan Christiaan en haar seuns. En aan Falix wat altyd maar agter ‘n venster vir haar staan en wag…

Linguistic Atlas of South Africa
0This atlas maps various time-space dimensions of South Africa’s remarkable linguistic diversity to cast the geography of language within the conceptual framework of geolinguistics. It shows how historical patterns of spatial language preponderance have developed to produce current patterns and allows understanding of the way landscape has become regionally ingrained in the vocabulary of languages. Here language is cast as a barometer of the social dynamics processes of space and place: spatial convergence, regional competition, expansion and dominance, segregation and assimilation, ethnicity, social ecology, language identity, social interaction and migration trends.
