ABSTRACT

First Published in 1991. This monograph holds a collection of Afrikaner texts which few of were written in English. The choice was deliberate as the author wanted to see what was really said in the language which is such a part of the Afrikaner soul (volksiel). It also looks at the Dutch influence on Afrikaans.
