The South African Commercial Advertiser and the Eastern Frontier, 1834-1847: an examination of the ways in which and the sources from which it reported frontier conflicts
- Authors: Frye, John

- Description: [From Introduction]. The name of John Fairbairn is remembered with honour in South Africa for the part he played in the achievement of a freer press in the Cape Colony, in the campaign to prevent Britain from establishing a convict station on Cape soil, and in the movement which resulted in the establishment of a form of representative government in the Cape in 1853. More controversial is his share, as the editor of the first modern newspaper in the Colony, in a campaign to secure just treatment for the natives both inside and outside of the Colony. It is with his treatment of the conflicts, both small and great, between the Colony and the AmaXhosa tribes on its Eastern Frontier that this study is concerned.

Tragic themes in the plays of Arthur Miller
- Authors: Wortham, Christopher John

- Description: Aeschylus wrote that we learn through suffering. Whether one agrees with this statement or not, one has to recognise that it has given rise to a great deal of discussion about tragedy. What kind of suffering we can associate with tragedy will be considered in the chapters which follow. The more immediate concern is the business of learning. Man can learn a good deal about the problems that confront him, but he cannot learn all there is to know about anything. His knowledge is relative. He may postulate the absolute, but it is beyond the grasp of the human mind to perceive the absolute in its absoluteness. The relativist can avoid an epistemological quagmire by simply accepting that a relativistic attitude is only of relative value; he has the intellectual humility to recognise that whatever he thinks or says is likely to reveal only part of the truth. Arthur Miller has suggested that the best serious literature is concerned with the absolute, in that he criticises one of his contemporary playwrights for writing a work which "fails to extend itself so as to open up ultimate causes". Chap. 1, p. 1.

- Description: Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the Rhodes University, Department of Ichthyology, No. 2 , Specimens from the southeast African coast conform well in essential characters with those displayed in radiographs of Muraena tota cinerea Forsskål from the Red Sea. In contrast, Japanese specimens which have been assigned to M.cinereus have more precaudal vertebrae, a higher total number of vertebrae, more numerous dorsal rays, a broader interorbital and a larger eye. They should therefore be set aside as distinct from Forsskål’s species. An available name for these is possibly M.singaporensis (Bleeker, 1853) although insufficient is known about M.cinereus - type eels in the Indo-Malayan region for this name to be confidently applied to the Japanese form. In many features western Indian Ocean M.cinereus closely resembles M.yamaguchiensis Katayama & Takai, 1954, also from Japan.

- Description: Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the Rhodes University, Department of Ichthyology, No.1 , Ascomana gen. nov., based on A. eximia sp. nov. is described from a single 700mm leptocephalus collected off Cape Town. It displays the following characters which in combination distinguish it from known eel genera: — Jaws moderately produced, hyomandibula essentialy vertical, short postocular region, occipital crest present, slender upwardly-curved lower jaw, pectoral fin with very numerous rays (23-24); larva reaching at least 700mm, eye not telescopic, caudal not attenuated or rounded, very numerous teeth, intestine a straight tube, pigment mainly as a series of large melanophores along the ventral body wall from throat to vent. The new genus and species shows some resemblances to the nessorhamphid eels. An elongate (565mm) leptocephalus, also collected from off Cape Town (that is, in the locality of the Dana "giant" eel-larvae), is identified with Leptocephalus giganteus Castle and is the second undoubted specimen of this species.
