Digters uit Suid-Afrika by Celliers, Leipoldt, Malherbe, and Totius
"Digters uit Suid-Afrika" by Dr. E. C. Pienaar is a collection of poetry written in the early 20th century. This anthology features works from prominent South African poets affiliated with the Second Afrikaans Language Movement, capturing their diverse styles and themes. The collection likely addresses the socio-political landscape of South Africa during its time, reflecting on topics such as identity, nature, and resilience. At the start of this anthology, the compiler introduces
the fourth, revised edition, noting that it was initially intended for Dutch readers but has been adapted to better cater to an Afrikaans-speaking audience. Pienaar mentions that the collection has been expanded and updated to reflect the growing body of Afrikaans literature, aiming to provide a clearer snapshot of the contemporary state of Afrikaans poetry. Additionally, the opening portion includes biographical sketches of several featured poets, including Jan F. E. Celliers, Totius, and C. Louis Leipoldt, alongside a selection of their notable works, which set the tone for the reflective explorations of South African culture, language, and the human experience that follow in the anthology.
