Kerk en kultuur by die vryheidsoekende Afrikaner van die 19e eeu - 'n historiese ondersoek

Abstract

In this study attention is given to the question of the correlation between and/or position of the church vis à vis culture among the republican Afrikaner of the 19th century. Initially attention is given to a workable definition of church and culture and then, in the light of Calvinist theology, the relationship is discussed. Eventually the stated problem is discussed and the conclusion formulated that the culture of the Afrikaner was strongly influenced and directed by its theological viewpoints. A few conclusions are drawn.
