Knowledge remains timely in education. The need for academics to contemplate its relevance, worth, use and everything in-between deems a continuous intellectual project, rather than a conundrum to be solved. This book takes the South African context by the horns as it challenges the often dormant and traditionalist ways in which higher education spaces see knowledge. Through original research and the voices of academics and students, this book argues for repurposing knowledge generation, knowledge sharing and critical pedagogy so that more inclusive teaching and learning environments can be both imagined and sustained. The contentious tensionalities that this creates for LoLT and SoTL, in particular, are unlocked so as to trouble the South African higher education landscape with the intent to proffer alternative pathways for a knowledge beyond colour lines. Prof Shan Simmonds (PhD) NWU This edited volume bristles with fresh scholarly approaches and insights of an emergent generation of engaged scholars grappling with the issues and problems of higher education in South Africa. The issues dealt with here are varied and encompassing. They are treated with intellectual delicacy and probing sensitivity, articulacy, informed data and bold conclusions. They serve well!

"“Unlocking the chains of knowledge: Understanding the challenges, remaking pedagogies, and curriculum renewal addresses the complex yet imperative task of reshaping the colonial legacy embedded within South African higher education and beyond. The book confronts the historical and ideological bindings that have entrenched European-centric knowledge within the fabric of academia in Africa, propelling a transformative journey within the Arts and Humanities. At its core, this work presents a tripartite focus: firstly, understanding the deep-seated issues ingrained in the traditional university structure; secondly, remaking pedagogical practices; and lastly, renewing the curriculum. Recognising the historical dominance of Eurocentric ideas, the book explores various movements, theories, and practices, from negritude to postcolonial theory, aiming to emancipate and amplify the voices and knowledge of those historically excluded. With a commitment to a pluralistic approach, the book scrutinises the power dynamics of language, the importance of diverse perspectives, and the challenging task of inclusion without replicating the divisive structures of the past.” - Prof. Christine Winberg, Research Chair in Work-integrated Learning, Cape Peninsula University of Technology “In Unlocking the chains of knowledge: Understanding the challenges, remaking pedagogies and curriculum renewal the editors provide a decisive and detailed reflection and profound understanding of complexities of knowledge generation in Southern Africa. Unlike many volumes that address these intricate complexities, this volume not only navigates the intricate complexities of the long history of epistemic injustices and intolerance in the Southern African higher education environment, but delves deeper into the core of what is required for curriculum transformation and renewal. The groundbreaking volume addresses the urgent need for linguistic inclusivity, consciousness about decoloniality, as well as embedding social justice in South African and Zimbabwean education and, by doing so, presents strategies that can be used by the rest of the African continent in addressing the scourge of coloniality.” - Prof. Pamela Maseko, Executive Dean: Faculty of Humanities, Nelson Mandela University"

Language and the Law: Global Perspectives in Forensic Linguistics from Africa and beyond is the third volume in a series of books designed to contribute and respond to growing interest in forensic linguistics or language and the law on the African continent. Drawing mostly on contexts where traditional African laws and Western laws are practised side-by-side, and where there are discontinuities between local knowledge systems, belief systems and language practices on the one hand, and official languages of law discourse, conceptualisation and jurisprudence documentation on the other, the chapters in this volume problematise, among other issues, the mediation practices (or lack thereof) of language and legal processes, discourse strategies and complexities in (mis)interpretations in second language court contexts and the miscarriage of justice that these may entail.

The field of forensic linguistics, which integrates the fields of language and the law, is not only a necessity in Africa but also a lifeblood in the entire administration of justice. Hopefully, the emergence of this field and the inroads it is bound to make on the multilingual and culturally diverse continent shall ameliorate the adverse effects of the African diaspora, given the high density of languages and the polarity of its people. Notwithstanding the noble intentions of administrators of justice, the language and interpretation/translation barriers, which often hinder the desired results. This is not only prevalent in the criminal justice system but also rears its ugly head in civil trials. Awareness of such shortcomings must be heightened, especially among presiding officers, legal practitioners, and law enforcement officers. The series of books on Forensic Linguistics, Language and Law should not be for the preserve and benefit of scholars in this field, but also be distributed and promoted among all for the benefit of the wider community, especially in the legal field. - Advocate Babalo Metu: Also Acting Judge of the Eastern Cape Division and the Labour Court Documenting Forensic Linguistics in the African Context breaks new ground in exploring these critical questions. Through 14 comprehensive chapters, leading scholars examine the intricate relationship between language and law in Africa’s multilingual courtrooms. From police interview models to witness statement analysis, from authorship identification to the challenges of training forensic linguists, this volume offers unprecedented insights into the complexities of legal linguistics in African contexts. This groundbreaking work, an essential reading for legal practitioners, linguists, scholars, and anyone interested in the intersection of language, law, and justice in contemporary Africa, arrives at a crucial moment, as forensic linguistics emerges as a vital field across Africa. Rich in both theoretical foundations and practical applications, it sets a new agenda for understanding how language shapes justice in multilingual, multicultural societies. - Professor Felix Banda: Linguistics Department, University of the Western Cape, South Africa

The research represented in this volume, and in the series as a whole, is intended to provide critical analyses and findings that can underpin the development of language policies, practice guides and other resources that support a fair and accessible legal system. However, this will also require well-developed teaching and research programmes, so it is our intention that this volume will continue to support the growth of forensic linguistics in Southern African universities and nurture the next generation of scholars dedicated to forensic and legal linguistics. This aim will be supported by the newly formed African Association of Forensic and Legal Linguists (AAFLL), which will help to coordinate the study of forensic linguistics in Africa. This book series, Studies in Forensic and Legal Linguistics in Africa and Beyond, Volumes I, II, III and IV, continues to play an important role in bringing African forensic linguistic scholarship to a wider audience, while simultaneously promoting the field amongst academic and legal institutions in Africa.

A Handbook on Legal Languages and the Quest for Linguistic Equality in South Africa and Beyond is an interdisciplinary publication located in the discipline of forensic linguistics/ language and law. This handbook includes varying comparative African and global case studies on the use of language(s) in courtroom discourse and higher education institutions: Kenya; Morocco; Nigeria; Australia; Belgium Canada and India. These African and global case studies form the backdrop for the critique of the monolingual English language of record policy for South African courts, the core of this handbook, discussed in relation to case law and the beleaguered legal interpretation profession. This handbook argues that linguistic transformation and decolonisation of South Africa’s legal and higher education systems needs to be undertaken where legal practitioners are linguistically equipped to litigate in a bilingual/ multilingual courtroom that enables access to justice for the majority of African language speaking litigants, enforcing their constitutional language rights.

The effort to go beyond given knowledge in different domains – artistic, scientific, political, metaphysical – is a characteristic driving force in modernism and the avant-gardes. Since the late 19th century, artists and writers have frequently investigated their medium and its limits, pursued political and religious aims, and explored hitherto unknown physical, social and conceptual spaces, often in ways that combine these forms of critical inquiry into one and provoke further theoretical and methodological innovations. The fifth volume of the EAM series casts light on the history and actuality of investigations, quests and explorations in the European avant-garde and modernism from the late 19th century to the present day. The authors seek to answer questions such as: How have modernism and the avant-garde appropriated scientific knowledge, religious dogmas and social conventions, pursuing their investigation beyond the limits of given knowledge and conceptions? How have modernism and avant-garde created new conceptual models or representations where other discourses have allegedly failed? In what ways do practises of investigation, quest or exploration shape artistic work or the formal and thematic structures of artworks?

Creating the New African University grapples with the existence of African universities, particularly in post-independent Africa, where Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are supposed to live up to the expectations of being adaptive in dealing with prevalent complex, dynamic contemporary and future challenges facing African societies. The book tackles the issue of what ought to be done for African universities to maintain a structure and identity that ensures their relevance in Africa’s development through generating and transforming knowledge into actions for the common good. It engages issues within the context of how post-colonial transformative obligations have been managed in light of the prevalent epistemological and pedagogical underpinnings that form the foundations of these universities as they seek to break from the clutches of colonial legacies. This book further highlights an urgent need to do away with silos and embrace a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary dialogical approach towards knowledge generation. Such an approach is essential in efforts aimed at enhancing the sustainable reconfiguration of university structures and functions whilst linking knowledge produced to diverse social, economic and political facets of African societies in ways that promote and sustain competitiveness in a rapidly globalising world beset with technological advancements.
