Samenvatting

Buikema proposes new coalitions between various traditions of textual analysis in order to delve deeper into the connections between art, culture and diversity. In this context, diversity not so much refers to a politically correct concept that pays lip service to the experiences of women, migrants, blacks and other politically, socially and culturally marginalised people, but rather to the consequence of the fundamental singularity of visual and discursive works of art. Buikema underlines the political and aesthetic merits of in-depth intertextual analysis by way of a thorough discussion of two great literary works, published in a period of political transition in South Africa: Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee and Agaat by Marlene Van Niekerk.
