Additional information

This article is based on an M.A. thesis in History submitted at the University of Cape Town, which constituted a chronological study of a rural Jewish community in South Africa from the 1870s onwards, and addressed Jewish acculturation in particular. See D. Coetzee, “Immigrants to Citizens: Civil Integration and Acculturation of Jews into Oudtshoorn Society, 1874–1999,” (unpublished MA thesis, Department of History, University of Cape Town [hereafter UCT], 2000). Supervised and supported by Associate Professors Richard Mendelsohn and Milton Shain (Director of the Kaplan Centre of Hebrew and Jewish Studies, UCT).
