Gesoek: Bestaande skeppende tekste in Kaaps of Afrikaaps. Dit sluit gedigte, opnames van \u201cspoken word poetry\u201d en TikTok-gedigte, kortverhale, boeke, radio- of televisiedramas of musiek in. <\/p>\n
Di\u00e9 werke word ingesluit in \u2019n omvattende gratis elektroniese internasionale databasis van onderverteenwoordigde Afrikatale. Dit vorm deel van die African Literary Metadata-inisiatief (Almeda), vertel die Almeda-genoot dr. Riaan Oppelt, \u2019n dosent in die departement Engels aan die Universiteit Stellenbosch. <\/p>\n
Almedais \u2019n projek van Uppsala Universiteit in Swede, en word deur die Europese Navorsingsraad gefinansier. Daardeur word \u2019n soekbare metadata-databasis van skeppende tekste in verskillende minder ontginde Afrika-tale saamgestel, soos Swahili, Shona en Sheng (\u2019n hibriede taal wat in Nairobi in Kenia en dele van Tanzani\u00eb gepraat word). Sodoende word skeppende werke in sulke tale meer toeganklik en vrylik beskikbaar vir navorsers, ander skeppendes en die publiek om te gebruik. <\/p>\n
\n Soektog na \u201cvermiste\u201d tekste<\/b>\n<\/p>\n
Oor die insluiting van kreatiewe tekste in Afrikaaps of Kaaps in die groter Almeda-projek s\u00ea dr. Oppelt: \u201cAfrikaaps het in onlangse jare danksy die werk van talle kunstenaars en akademici heelwat meer erkenning as voorheen verkry. <\/p>\n
\u201cDit word deesdae in heelwat meer boeke, digbundels, rolprente, televisiereekse en musiekproduksies as ooit tevore gebruik. Dis daarom goed om nou \u2019n rekord op te bou van wat reeds alles in verskillende mediums beskikbaar is.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hy verduidelik verder: \u201cHeelwat gepaste tekste word steeds net onder Afrikaans geklassifiseer of gelys. Dit maak dit moeilik om op te spoor, veral vir \u2019n gehoor buite Suid-Afrika wat deur internasionale katalogusstelsels werk, wat nog nie Afrikaaps of Kaaps as spesifieke soekopsie of metadata-\u2018tag\u2019 bied nie.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dr. Oppelt stel egter nie net in hedendaagse tekste belang nie, maar ook in sogenaamde \u201cvermiste\u201d werke uit vervlo\u00eb dae, wat tot dusver onder die radar gebly het. Daarom is hy tans besig om plaaslike argiewe deur te soek vir moontlike leidrade na gepaste tekste. <\/p>\n
Hy het al onder meer op kortfiksie in tydskrifte uit die 1950\u2019s in die argiewe van die NG kerk afgekom, waarin karakters Afrikaaps praat. <\/p>\n
\u201cDit is in alle waarskynlikheid nie geskryf deur mense wat in daardie stadium self Afrikaaps gepraat het nie. <\/p>\n
\u201cTog is sulke tekste steeds waardevolle verwysingsbronne, wat hopelik \u2019n goeie aanduiding bied van die woordeskat van destydse Afrikaapse sprekers.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n Almeda-projek<\/b>\n<\/p>\n
Dr. Oppelt het Uppsala Universiteit einde verlede jaar besoek en onder meer \u2019n lesing oor sy werk vir Afrikaaps as deel van Almeda gelewer. <\/p>\n
Hy is sedert 2022 by die groter Almeda-projek betrokke nadat hy die projekhoof, prof. Ashleigh Harris, ontmoet het toe di\u00e9 Zimbabwies-gebore dosent van Uppsala Universiteit op besoek aan die Universiteit Stellenbosch was. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea hy bly be\u00efndruk oor haar passie vir Afrikatale. <\/p>\n
Prof. Harris, wat reeds die afgelope 20 jaar in Swede werk, verduidelik die motivering agter die Almeda-projek so: \u201cJa, \u2019n mens kry Engelse vertalings van \u2019n paar skrywers uit Afrika, soos Chimamandu Ngozi Adichie, NoViolet Bulawayo en Abdulrazak Gurnah. Die meeste materiaal in Afrikatale en dialekte word egter bitter selde vertaal. <\/p>\n
\u201cSulke tekste word meestal net plaaslik gebruik en geniet. <\/p>\n
\u201cBoeke is vir baie mense in Afrika eenvoudig te duur, en daarom geniet hulle in hul vrye tyd eerder informele, nie-winsgedrewe en dikwels vlietende werke, soos \u2018spoken word poetry\u2019, straatteater, radiodramas en verskillendes aanlyn. Die Almeda-projek is besig om sulke werke saam in \u2019n ineengeskakelde databasis of bewaarplek te katalogiseer en te lys, om sodoende hul bestaan te erken. Die vrye toegang tot hierdie inligting maak dit vir belangstellendes makliker om sulke werke op te spoor.\u201d<\/p>\n
