Die drama handel oor die lewe van die Griekse digter-staatsman Periandros (627-585 v.C.), die alleenheeser van Korinthe, wat sy groot droom probeer verwesenlik: om Korinthe ’n wêreldstad te maak. Dié skooluitgawe het ’n inleiding en verklarende aantekeninge.

In Heilige beeste (1945), Opperman se debuutbundel, is die belydende inslag en die religieuse stryd van die Louws se eerste bundels feitlik geheel en al afwesig en beoefen hy ʼn veel meer beeldende poësie as sy voorgangers. Daarby laat vaar hy die chronologiese of achronologiese basis vir sy rubrisering en maak hy ʼn verdeling wat op die temas van “die aardse, die vrou en die Groot-Groot-Gees” uit die titelgedig berus. – J C Kannemeyer.

Joernaal van Jorik (1949), is ʼn vyfdelige epiese gedig in kwatryne met gekruiste rym. Die gedig handel oor die geskiedenis van Jorik (ʼn naam wat saamgestel is uit die digter se voorname Diederik Johannes) wat tydens die Tweede Wêreldoorlog in ʼn duikboot as spioen in Kaapstad aankom. Hy leer die land en sy mense, sy verskeidenheid landskappe en kontraste ken en raak verstrik in die politieke situasie en lewenswyse van Suid-Afrika. – J C Kannemeyer

Komas uit ʼn bamboesstok (1979) is geskryf na ʼn ernstige lewersiekte en werk met ʼn hele aantal bekende temas van vroeër, maar deur die besondere verbinding wat bulle met mekaar aangaan, verskyn hulle dikwels in ʼn verrassend-nuwe gedaante. Die motiewe van aftakeling en siekte, beperktheid van menslike lewe en besit, word hier dikwels op ʼn geestige wyse met die gebruik van satire, hekeling, selfspot en ironie aangebied. – J C Kannemeyer

Alfred Edward Housman (1859-1936) was an English poet and classical scholar whose work became a major force in turn-of-the-century English poetry. Unlike his contemporaries, Houseman's poetry does not qualify as Romantic, Victorian or Modernist, and is not overly sentimental or optimistic; instead, his deeply pessimistic and ironic poetry, written clearly and succinctly, earned Housman notoriety as one of the foremost classicists of his time. His best-known work, «A Shropshire Lad», is a...
