- Title
Die Bittereindervrede van 31 Mei 1902: 'n Histories-etiese Perspektief.
- Authors
Strauss, P. J.
- Abstract
The remainder of Boers fighting the last part of the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902), are known as the die-hards. However, the characteristics of a die-hard or bitter end were not defined or uninamously recognized by the Boers. In the circumstances of April-May 1902 peace talks began and led to the signing of a peace treaty on 31 May 1902. In the development of the discussions among themselves a realisation was reached by the vast majority of the 60 Boer delegates that this was inevitably the end of the bitter end: the die-hard end. Hierdie besef word binne 'n Christelik-historiese en etiese perspektief bespreek.
