| Purpose: This module is designed for Afrikaans Home Language speakers. The purpose of this module is to familiarise students with traditional and emerging literary genres and subgenres that are aptly suited to explore specific themes in Afrikaans prose and poetry. After completing this module, students will know why genre as a literary concept is not as clear-cut as it may seem, how genres are constantly evolving in different ways, and how genre as an integral element of Afrikaans literature forms part of a dynamic interaction between Afrikaans authors and texts. |
