Abstract
Afrikaans literature finds itself on the threshold of a new era. The first democratic election of 1994 spelled the downfall of the Apartheid regime. The dramatic political developments in South Africa in the 1990s inspired Afrikaans writers to thoroughly re-examine the past. Afrikaner history is revisited with a vengeance: the ideology of the previous generations is utterly rejected, the generally accepted myths completely destroyed and the stories of the marginalised revealed. By unearthing the hidden side of history Afrikaans writers make their own particular contribution to reconciliation in South Africa.
