Includes bibliographical references (leaves 161-171). In 1843, William Sammons founded the peculiarly named Sam Sly’s African Journal (1843 -1851) in Cape Town. Claiming to be a ‘register of facts, fiction, news, literature, commerce and amusement’, the African Journal was a hybrid newspaper and literary and satirical periodical aimed at an Anglophone immigrant readership in the period between the abolition of slavery and the granting of representative government to the Cape Colony. 2015-01-06T12:06:22Z 2015-01-06T12:06:22Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11558 eng application/pdf Department of Historical Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
