- W1546197968 abstract "In 1883 The Story of an African Farm appeared under the pseudonym of Iron. That Schreiner's nom de pi urne pays homage to Ralph Waldo Emerson is axiomatic in analyses of the novel, especially insofar as Lyndall together with Waldo and Em are the novel's pro-, deuter-, and tritagonists. The primary meaning of is undoubtedly found in Schreiner's admiration of Emerson's theme of self-reliance— firmness of mind, courage, inner strength: High be his heart, faithful his will, clear his sight, that he may in good earnest be doctrine, society, law, to himself, that a simple purpose may be to him as strong as iron necessity is to others!l Alluding to 1875-79 when she composed her novel, Schreiner asks Havelock Ellis, Hasn't your heart ever been like iron? then adds, Mine was for five years. Then for the three years I first spent in England I cried every night for hours.2 But over and above its Emersonian resonances, Ralph Iron serves in a manner not unlike the more famous mask of David Copperfield that Dickens chose for his fictionalized autobiographical narration. Just as the field of copper suggests both a humble yet useful metal, malleable and uncorrodible like gold but basic to the currency or seagoing mercantile enterprises, so too in the context of South African gold and diamonds, iron is everywhere underfoot, not least in the iron-stones of the kopjes. But everywhere also, as the imagery of the novel indicates, the eidola of creeds arise as iron bars to lacerate mortal flesh, iron walls to imprison it and against which the individual self often cannot prevail.3 The ostrich and sheep farm of Tant' Sannie typifies not so much a place, finally, as a state of being, a condition of iron necessity and oppression. Schreiner's iron may be a more equivocal image than Dickens' copper." @default.
