| Summary: | Johan Heyns and the class of '51 - prolegomena to a story of people who got hurt This article consists of three parts. In the first part a story is told of Johan Heyns and some of the men who shared with him the final year of theologi-cal training at the University of Pretoria in 1951. In the second part prolegomena to the telling of a new story of Johan Heyns are explained. Finally this new story is told by using the voices of six people - students, colleagues andfamily - who interrupt each other's voice on Johan Heyns, thereby undermining the popular ideal amongst local church historians that religion biography can and should recreate a complete and consistent image of a person's (moral) reality. |
