This thesis is a study of remembering in the postcolony. A remembering that is less about the need to forestall forgetting than it is about a putting back together of the fractured body. It suggests that while the postcolony demands remembering, its particularities render remembering highly problematic if not impossible. It argues that performance and a particular piece of dramaturgy is one way of intervening in this process of remembering; one way of making the silent dead speak, because performance is connected to both time and silence in key ways. 2014-12-29T05:00:24Z 2014-12-29T05:00:24Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10476 eng application/pdf Department of Drama Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
