ABSTRACT

Ikalafeng, kgosi of the Bahurutshe ba ga Moiloa at Dinokana since 1877, hoped to get British support to rid his people of Boer domination and engaged in acts of defiance against the Boers. Early in 1882 a Boer commando, accompanied by General Piet Joubert, the commandant-general of the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek, moved against the inhabitants of Dinokana, disarmed them, forced them to dismantle the fortifications around Dinokana and use the stones to build a ‘peace memorial’ (vredeskoppie), and imposed a heavy fine on them, which resulted in the loss of 20 per cent of their livestock. They were humiliated and impoverished, and did not recover from this setback. This article analyses Afrikaans-language narratives of these events written during the twentieth century from a pro-Boer perspective to show how they contributed to the mythology of apartheid.

摘要

Ikalafeng，自 1877 年以来在Dinokana的 Bahurutshe ba ga Moiloa 的 kgosi，希望获得英国的支持，以摆脱布尔人的统治，并从事反抗布尔人的行为。1882 年初，一支布尔突击队在南南非语共和国总司令皮埃特·朱伯特将军的陪同下，向 Dinokana 居民发起进攻，解除了他们的武装，迫使他们拆除 Dinokana 周围的防御工事，并用石头建造一座“和平纪念馆”（vredeskoppie)，并对他们处以重罚，导致他们损失了 20% 的牲畜。他们被羞辱和贫困，并没有从这次挫折中恢复过来。本文从支持布尔人的角度分析了 20 世纪对这些事件的南非荷兰语叙述，以展示它们如何促成了种族隔离的神话。
