BIOGRAPHICAL
NOTE
RICHARD
RIVE 1932-1989
Richard
Rive grew up in District Six, Cape Town.
He was awarded a scholarship to high school, and later to the University
of Cape Town. He became a
teacher of English, and soon his literary efforts had won recognition.
He used his literary talent to highlight the plight of Black people in
South Africa, and fell foul of the censors, having some of his writings banned.
He
obtained an MA in teaching at Columbia University, USA, and a PhD at Oxford on
the life and works of Olive Schreiner.
He travelled extensively on teaching and lecture tours.
At
the time of his death he was a lecturer at Hewat Training College.
THE
COLLECTION
The
Richard Rive Papers have been deposited with UCT Libraries by Mr Leonard du
Plooy.
The
Collection consists of personal papers, including a comprehensive personal
scrapbook of photographs, newsclips etc, manuscripts and typescripts of some of
his writings, research material for his PhD thesis on Olive Schreiner, as well
as personal memorabilia.
