Description

This scholarly work traces a distinctive philosophical current throughout South African history, from nineteenth-century Dutch liberal theology through Stellenbosch existentialism to Breyten Breytenbach's prison writings. The book examines the dialectical tradition often overlooked or mischaracterised as Afrikaner liberalism, exploring related themes in the philosophical contributions of Olive Schreiner, M. K. Gandhi, and Richard Turner. At the heart of this analysis lies a defence of free speech as a classical virtue essential to a good society, rather than its modern liberal interpretation. The Dialectical Tradition in South Africa offers scholars and readers interested in continental philosophy, political thought, and South African intellectual history a comprehensive exploration of how dialectical reasoning shaped philosophical discourse in the region.
