8. South African Folk

Sanni Metelerkamp was a South African playwright and author born in 1867. She is well known for her biography of her great-grandfather, George Rex, the British born entrepreneur who founded the town of Knysna and was rumoured to have been an illegitimate son of King George III. Possibly her greatest legacy however is the publication of a collection of folk tales which in her own words ' are the common property of every country child in South Africa.' By the time she published 'Outa Karel's Stories: South African Folk-Lore Tales' in 1914, South Africa had come through a time of great turmoil.
