More about the book
Focusing on the philosophical tradition in South Africa, this study delves into the defense of free speech and the impact of Enlightenment ideals. It analyzes the modernization efforts by Dutch thinkers, the existentialist perspectives of Afrikaners in the 1940s, and the revival of Afrikaans literature through figures like Breyton Breytenbach and Olive Schreiner. By tracing these intellectual currents, the work illustrates how a Socratic commitment to inquiry has shaped South Africa's unique modernity amidst social and political challenges.
