Divided by the Word : Colonial Encounters and the Remaking of Zulu and Xhosa Identities

Using archival sources from three continents written in multiple languages, this book offers a new appreciation for the deep historicity of language and ethnic identity in South Africa, while reconstructing the ways in which colonial forces generate and impose ethnic divides with long-lasting and lethal consequences for indigenous populations.
