- Description: The title of this lecture is from Shakespeare’s Hamlet and the two keywords, namely read and words will form the basis of my reflection on my life as an academic. Both are essential components of any academic project and both still play a significant role in my everyday life as a reader, a critic, a teacher, a reviewer, a poet or a translator. In my lecture I will focus briefly on the art of reading, reading and meaning, types of reading and end on a more personalized note with an analysis of the role of the poet as reader and make reference to both my poems and other poems within the discipline of Afrikaans literature.

- Description: All over Africa today, and particularly in the Southern Region, women in trade unions are wanting to stand up and be counted. How do we get counted, is a question we ask ourselves? Education being the unanimous answer, we were all very happy when the CTUC decided to fund a Women's Handbook project with the blessing of the Southern African Trade Union Co-ordination Council. The project was implemented in July 1986 in Harare, Zimbabwe. Sisters from Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe got together and our initial objectives were:- • To identify problems faced by working women in the region. • To come up with solutions to these problems. Once the main topics had been defined - i.e. women in society, in trade unions and the law, bargaining issues, health care and education for women - we set about drafting material which was to be used for pilot courses with women workers in each country. Now, nearly a year later, after having met again in Mbabane, Swaziland in March/April 1987, we have our handbook. We want this book to be used to help women educators run courses for the rank and file women workers. Here it should be noted that as women who feel we have always been discriminated against, we do not wish to carry this on by excluding our male counterparts. Therefore even though our book is aimed at women, we would welcome assistance from our brothers! Finally, we hope that this book will be instrumental in bringing about an end to our struggle for women in the labour movement.
