Fictions of the South African City
In this seminar we will explore the importance of two South African metropolises as political and cultural centres and as a social microcosms reflecting the state of South Africa’s transcultural society due to its colonial past (apartheid) and its postcolonial (post-apartheid), effects. We will investigate the political, social, cultural and architectural history with a special focus on Cape Town and Johannesburg, especially through the study of written and visual representations (paintings, photographs, films, literary and academic texts/ presentations).
