Lighting the Lamp on the Pathway of Life

Lighting the Lamp on the Pathway of Life Bible Translating in the Languages of Southern Africa by Eric A Hermanson Description The Bible Society of South Africa celebrated its bicentenary in 2020. This book was written to document the Bible translation projects which were done under the auspices of the Bible Society of South Africa between 1967, when Dr E A Nida held a seminar on his Dynamic Equivalent Theory for the translators who were then working on projects in South Africa and some neighbouring countries, where the BSSA had regional offices, and 2020. It therefore covers the 10 Indigenous official languages of the Republic of South Africa under the section Lamp to my Feet and 7 Bantu, 1 Khoi and 4 San languages of Namibia and 1 Bantu language of Botswana. Some of these are also spoken across the border in neighbouring countries. Languages - RSA Afrikaans, Southern Ndebele, Swati, Xhosa and Zulu; Northern Sotho, Southern Sotho (2 orthographies, RSA and Lesotho) and Tswana; Tsonga and Venda. Namibia - Herero, Dhimba, Ndonga, Kwanyama, Kwangali, Mbukushu and Gciriku; Nama (Khoekhoegowab); Tsumkwe !Xũ, Ekoka !Xũ, Gobabis !Xũ and ≠Ãkhoe. Botswana - Kalanga. Method - The author read all the archived files containing the minutes, correspondence and reports to and from the Society and the translation teams and drew on his own experience as translation consultant for many of the projects. To avoid the annoying "the Bible was translated by the Rev XYZ and his language informants..." he gives the names, not only of the translation team, but also of the review committee members, and their church affiliation. Without hiding anything in the files, he reveals to the reader the many trials and triumphs of the men and women from different countries, cultures, languages, churches and theological backgrounds, whom God called to work together in harmony so as to make the Word of God available to the people of Africa in their own heart language. Everything is carefully referenced in copious footnotes, to e to provide the reader to where they may find further information. Reader helps - include 120 photographs, a 6 page general and language bibliography under sub-headings and a 3 page index of photographs and a 10 page index. Advance Review This is truly a monumental piece of work ... As the author had personally been involved in various capacities in many of these translation projects, there is actually no one else with his background and insight into this history, as well as his ability to document this history in such a reliable and accurate manner. His academic training and background, his experience in the church and as Bible translator, as well as his extensive knowledge of the official languages of South Africa, qualified him as the ideal person to complete this project. (It) is absolutely necessary and really of great importance to bring to light the faithful way in which the Bible Society had been involved in fulfilling its calling and mission in the period following on the previous publication.
