Résumé
This paper looks at the way South Africa is portrayed in the novels and essays of Olive Schreiner. It argues that while Schreiner’s essays were unusual in that she defended the cause of the Boers during the Boer war, her fiction was far more radical. It suggests that her lasting legacy is her innovative description of the South African landscape which paved the way for the development of New Literatures in English.
