Synopsis

The new South Africa inherited a history of linguistic marginalisation. The dawn of democracy ushered in a period of redressing and reclaiming African languages to their rightful place. The country has had to live its true multilingual nature – a project that continues to evade former colonial states. True to the commitment of a just linguistically equitable society, this collection of essays, written in isiZulu, Tshivenda, Sesotho sa Leboa, Sesotho and Setswana, argues for the centrality of multilingualism as a means of intellectualising, utilising and developing African languages.
