Extractions: The complexity of this story makes it a difficult one to grasp, for it is built on the history of local African religions and of biological processes, of diverse child- rearing practices and of farming patterns, of divination techniques and of health bureaucracies. Because of the difficulty of knowing this story, it will be told as a connected whole only in lectures. The readings are devoted to three case studies, so that students can learn about culture and history in some detail in a few places. By building detailed understandings of local patterns students will acquire the knowledge with which to evaluate the history told in lectures.
Extractions: Ralph Proctor Gallery Welcome to our first show of the year 2000. We hope you have enjoyed our offerings over the past years. Out exhibitions are designed to teach as well as entertain, and of course, as a gallery we welcome sales. Judging from your kind comments and purchases, I think we have reached our goals. We offer our sincere thanks for your support. The theme for our first show this year is "Classical African Images." This means that items chosen for this exhibit must meet stylistic parameters that were established by African societies many years ago. These images are the types that are used as examples in textbooks and are easily found in museum exhibitions. This does not mean that the styles have not changed over the years. It siimply means that the changes, if any, have been gradual and moderate, so that the artifacts can be easily recognized as belonging to the same genre for which the older pieces were created.

Contact From: http://www.geocities.com/africanreligion/spirit.htm Very recently, I brought together in one website[ii] a considerable number of my papers on African religion as written over the years, also in preparation for a book largely to consist of the same material. This has made me reflect on the very topic Mudimbe invited me in vain to write on. The present argument may ultimately, in more final form, serve towards the introduction of my book in the making, and this is another incentive to write it. The extensive references to my own published work merely serve to cover as many as possible of the articles to be included in the prospective book.

But what makes Cape Town so different is the recent end of apartheid, what is often referred to as the negotiated revolution of 1994?
