spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/7409 The influence of fundamentalism on evangelicalism in South Africa with special reference to the role of Plymouth Brethrenism amongst the Cape coloured population Jansen, Alan Lance De Gruchy, John W Religious Studies Includes bibliography. This dissertation is a study of Christian fundamentalism in South Africa looking at its character, history, major influences, development, resilience and resurgence. The study focuses on the Plymouth Brethren who thrived among the coloured communities of the Cape in the early decades of the twentieth century. The Brethren provide more than a useful case study on a subject which is complex and multifaceted, because their influence has been significant in the rise of fundamentalism in this country as has been the case in North America and Europe. This influence arises from their distinctives: dispensationalist millenarianism, literalist hermeneutics, ecclesiastical separatism, and their lay- based governance structure. 2014-09-10T12:34:38Z 2014-09-10T12:34:38Z 2002 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7409 eng application/pdf Department of Religious Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
