Summary: | Recently Howard C Kee made proposals for doing 'sociological interpretation' by 'interrogating the text' by means of a catalogue of complementary questions derived from diverse 'social science approaches'. In the main part of this experiment, an anonymous twentieth century South African text on war and violence is taken and analysed in this way, in order to ascertain whether it is indeed possible to construct the original social context. This analysis was tested and refined by the Western Cape sub-group of the Society. In a short conclusion, the opposing thesis by John H Elliot et al that one should approach the text from the mass of available sociological information is briefly discussed. |
