Paperback. Etat : Very Good. This book reveals the shocking truth of how we have abused the very ground we stand on, the water we drink and the seas that cover our planet. Water, land and sea combine to produce the food we eat. These natural resources have become critically degraded at a time when our expanding population needs them most: WE MUST ACT NOW. This accessible, mass market bestseller offers radical new explanations, arguments and solutions to the way we live and treat our planet. The book offers conditional hope for the future: and the condition is that certain actions are taken now rather than postponed. Hope without action is just a comforting illusion. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The the indispensable guide to the life and work of Don Maclennan - one of South Africas most incisive and important poets of the last few decades. No one who encountered Don Maclennan (1929-2009) during the more than three decades of his teaching career at Rhodes University is likely to forget thepiercing appraisal of his blue eyes, the penetration of his questions, or the incisiveness of his opinions.He eventually largely eschewed the pretensions of academic publishing. His favoured medium became the short, pithy talk, rich with original aphorisms on the value of story and poem, and laden with quotations from his favourite writers. And of course poetry. Don published or printed some twenty volumes of poetry, increasingly spare and lapidary, increasingly concerned with his approaching death. Though sometimes disturbing, they above all celebrated the simple fact of being alive, being in love, being sensuous.He knew that there is no other world than this one. There is probably no poetry in South Africas national oeuvre more thoughtfully authentic than his. The the indispensable guide to the life and work of Don Maclennan - one of South Africas most incisive and important poets of the last few decades.

Softcover. Etat : Very Good. First paperbck Edition. Signed by Author. Large format paperback binding, illustrated in colour. Signed and inscribed by the author on the titlepage. - Principally a portrait painter, Sandra found a small studio in Kloof Street and began to paint the people and places in District Six. For a young unaccompanied yet headstrong white woman, this was considered a highly dangerous if not foolhardy pastime, but the community -- skollies included -- welcomed and protected her -- calling her 'onse artist'. In 1966, under the Group Areas Act of 1950, District Six was declared a white area by the Nationalist government. Between 1966 and 1982 approximately 60,000 people were evicted from District Six. Communities were broken up, families separated and immense heartbreak suffered -- in particular by the elderly inhabitants of District Six, many of whom never adjusted to being forced to settle in remote areas of the sandy, inhospitable Cape Flats. Sandra painted in District Six from 1962 to 1980, both before and after the declaration. She witnessed the removals and the breakdown of a life and community that she had grown to love. Her story is at once inspiring and tragic. Living alone and desperately short of money, Sandra often sold her works on completion just to survive, or simply gave them away. Dolores Fleischer reveals in this significant book how Sandra McGregor accomplished so much both as a painter and an individual but with little recognition. In this book she records the artist's life and work in the context of South Africa's struggle for political freedom. Sandra's story is one of many, one window onto the reality of District Six, and a personal and poignant view of a place and its people, expressed through her experiences and her paintings. Size: Quarto. 208 pages. Category: Art & Design; Biography: Arts & Entertainment; Art; History; Biography & Autobiography. Signed by Author. ISBN: 0981441726. ISBN/EAN: 9780981441726.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Although these styles continue to be identifiable, particularly in massed dancing at national festivals, Zulu beadwork is increasingly eclectic and much of it is directed at the fast growing external market which now provides beadworkers with both a welcome source of personal income and a continuing stimulus to personal creativity.

Important collections of Zulu beadwork. Speaking with beads: Zulu 'Love Letters'. Bead making, bead messages and meaning. Expanding beadwork frontiers post 1980. Zulu beadwork for the new millennium. Zulu beadwork and Zulu and South African identity. A brief introduction to the history of beadwork in KwaZulu-Natal, followed by a description of contemporary beadwork made both for the market and for personal use. Once the domain of women, distinct regional styles of beadwork have developed, which were passed on from generation to generation.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Don Maclennan (1929-2009) was one of South Africa's best-loved teachers and the pre-eminent poet of his generation. Though he matured as a poet only in his fifties, he produced some twenty volumes before his death. None of our poets is more penetrating without cynicism, more beautifully thoughtful, or more readable. The Collected Poems gathers some 600 poems, including all the published volumes as well as numerous poems printed in periodical magazines and hitherto unavailable in one book. It shows clearly the poet's development towards a style of increasing spareness and lucidity of image. No poetry in the nation reveals greater passion for the mere fact of being alive or greater clarity of vision; few can match its uncompromising honesty and courage in the face of physical collapse and impending death. Alongside the companion Volume 'No other world' - Essays on the life-work of Don Maclennan, the Collected Poems deserves a place on every discerning reader's bedside table.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The book is part follow-on of Tysons easy to read and fascinating autobiography The Other Side Behind the News 1 where the reader is taken on a vicarious, and often humorous, journey through the landmark South African and world events he witnessed on his watch. But it is much more than that, too. Unpacking the history of the printed press and its imminent demise, hence the books title and the challenges that have and always will face the Fourth Estate, this book is a must-read for any journalist or student of journalism. Tyson also expounds on his vision of the future of credible online journalism and stresses the importance of online news portals and content providers subscribing to the tried-and-tested credos and ethics of leading printed newspaper brands such as The New York Times. Harvey Tyson has followed the dictates of his itch to write for over 70 years. He is probably best remembered for his byline in many respected newspapers, in SA and abroad, when he was a full-time news journalist for 44 years particularly as editor-in-chief of the Johannesburg Star for 16 years in the days of apartheid South Africa.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Reading this Golden Jubilee Book is like braving huge waves head-on in a stormy sea. The reader is given a front seat to see what happens inside a sea rescue station, inside the heart of a crewmember and during the decisive moments when saving a life and, of the never-spoken-about lonely moments in the aftermath of a rescue.These stories are true and authentic, told by crewmembers in their own words. The narrative is divided into five parts: the antecedents to Station 15, the building and commissioning of the first boathouse, the ongoing development of Station 15, rescue-and-miracle stories, and a Roll of Honour that not only lists past and present crews names but also reveals their hearts and souls through their own sayings, prayers, poems and testimonies.Mossel Bays community rallied around the development of this Jubilee Book with funding, research material, sharing their memories, and volunteered professional and artistic services; similar to the unknown widow who walked many miles to donate R2 to the building of Station 15s boathouse in 1970. This book is dedicated to the highly trained volunteers who defy the ocean and manage the station with passion and commitment.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Written by Marilyn Martin, a former director of the South African National Gallery, Between Dreams and Realities is based on extensive research and experience. This book revisits important exhibitions, events and forgotten controversies; it highlights the achievements of directors, who often faced political agendas and strained relationships within and outside the institution. Between Dreams and Realities considers the aspirations and role of civil society in creating and maintaining a national institution for the common good.Concurrently, the book examines long-standing government disinterest and neglect for the museum, and the difficulties that confronted directors in acquiring a collection worthy of its status. It also tells the story of excellent public cooperation and support, and of boards of trustees, directors and staff together overcoming the realities of budget cuts, government interference and severe space constraints. Between Dreams and Realities is a celebration of South Africas heritage and cultural wealth; it contributes to the fields of museum, heritage, cultural and curatorial studies, as well as visual and art history. It opens up the discourse and revives interest in public art museums in general and in the national art museum in particular, while offering perspectives on the future, and galvanising custodians and the public into action. Written by Marilyn Martin, a former director of the South African National Gallery, Between Dreams and Realities is based on extensive research and experience.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Dreams as R-evolution is both the catalogue for an art installation of the same name, and a work of art itself. The book is a sumptuously-designed record of an exhibit conveying the work of Durban-based artist, Coral Bijoux, landscaped into the spaces of the Westville Plant Nursery.Among the images that open the book is text by the artist that functions as a poem, a warning, and as historical observation. When you want to enslave a people, you steal their ability to dream. Reminiscent of the U.S. Black poet Langston Hughes 1951 lyric, A Dream Deferred, (What happens to a dream deferred/Does it dry up/Like a raisin in the sunOr does it explode?), Bijouxs text prepares us to consider dreaming as an act of insurrection.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Like Monet, who was his first inspiration, Moses Tladi was a gardener and an artist. Born in remote Sekhukuneland, east of Pretoria, South Africa, the son of a medicine-man who made a living by working in iron and a mother who was a gifted potter, Tladi in his early childhood herded cattle in the dramatic hill-country around his home. His parents had become "believers" under the influence of the Berlin Missionary Society and he was educated at the Lobethal mission, at ga Phaahla. Tladi, like many young men of the time, went to the cities in search of work. It is not known how he encountered Herbert Read, but in the mid 1920's he found employment in Johannesburg as gardener to Read at his property in the fashionable suburb of Parktown. Tladi's talent was discovered by Herbert Read's daughters who were schoolgirls in the mid-1920's. Read took Tladi under his wing, and introduced him to the collector and philanthropist Howard Pim. Read and Pim promoted Tladi at public exhibitions from 1929 onwards. Pim died in 1934, but Tladi continued to flourish, with Read as his patron until the outbreak of World War II.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Many books are written about trees, but few give a complete picture. What do they look like? Where do they come from? How do they grow? What are their uses for man, animals, birds and insects? How have their names changed over time? South African Flowering Trees - a botanical adventure through history acknowledges the many brave and resourceful early plant collectors and explorers, whose intense interest has contributed to what we know today. The histories in this volume refer primarily to the written record, but wherever possible tribal knowledge of trees - passed on by word of mouth - is included, specifically uses for food, fuel, protection, medicine and magic. This book owes its origin to the vision of the late Millicent Frean, a botanist who, in retirement, channelled her formidable energies into botanical art. Sandie Burrows is a qualified horticulturalist and field botanist who has illustrated numerous books, scientific papers, university theses and information brochures. The author, Rob Wood, is a retired banker with a lifelong interest in botany and horticulture, who is now involved with botanical history and bibliography.South African Flowering Trees - a botanical adventure through history will excite anyone interested in South Africa's natural heritage, whether they're botanists, dendrologists, art lovers, Africana enthusiasts, historians, natural historians - or simply curious about their environment. A selection of 25 indigenous South African trees. Full colour plate illustrations with detailed line drawings; A history of these South African trees from earliest written and oral records; Descriptions of seasonal variations; Structure, nomenclature, history and practical uses; Accessible popular terminology. A book to treasure that will delight tree lovers: from those who talk to trees to those who cannot name a tree!
