THE CLASSICAL ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH AFRICA: FEBRUARY 1981 – JANUARY 1983

This article continues the history of the Classical Association of South Africa as recorded in the archives of the Association.Since the publication of the previous accounts, an important study has appeared, which reconstructs some of the political, social and cultural contexts in which the activities of the Association, as reflected in my archival reports, were imbedded. I refer to Michael Lambert’s book, The Classics and South African Identities (2011). Lambert’s work now adds flesh on to the bare bones of the archival material
