	Ingrid de Kok
		Ingrid de Kok was born in 1951 in Johannesburg, and she grew up in the gold mining town Stilfontein, in South Africa.
		In 1977, de Kok emigrated to Canada, where she studied at Queen's University in Kingston, and in 1984 she returned to South Africa.
		The title of de Kok's latest poetry volume, »Terrestrial Things« (2002) alludes to a poem by Thomas Hardy, in which the possibility of grounds for hope is posited, even when the »terrestrial things« don't seem to offer any reason for hope at all.

	Interview December 1997
		IdK: It was liberating to spend time in a country like Canada where one could actually confess to being confused about something, to have two views and the time to find a considered way to have an opinion.
		IdK: One of the current aspects which attracts me to Frost (and the commentaries on him by Brodsky, Walcott and Heaney in "Homage to Robert Frost" are exemplary) and also to Hardy and Bishop is how violences are contained in their poems.
		The language itself, the working of the poem, is what generated the poem, not something as definable as a prior `idea.' But it is intended to carry a sense of the wounding of, and healing by women, and perhaps their ambiguous role in the healing of nations, or this particular nation.

	The Retriever Weekly
		Kok expressed that her concern when she sees this issue at hand is how it mainly affects the women and children and "many families are being aided by grandparents." She then read her poems "The head of the household," "Women and children first," and "The Child at the lights."
		Kok describes that "there were suicides, breakdowns at the Commissions office" because so many people had a difficult time dealing with this newly brought situation.
		On her view of political poetry, Kok actually expressed that she thought her own poetry was not in that sense, so political.

		When NP leader FW de Klerk accused the government, the police and the courts of threatening the reconciliation process, he probably didn't grasp the irony of his words.
		While blaming the ANC for this, they failed to acknowledge that it was their leader, FW de Klerk, who chaired the important cabinet committee on security and intelligence, the structure through which all policing and security policy was developed.
		De Klerk unbans the ANC, SACP and PAC and Nelson Mandela is released.

	Unisa Online - amnesia (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Other poems celebrate De Kok's mother ("My mother's house hold" [36--37]), and the bravura of a young juggler ("Young boy juggling" [38-39]), in both cases with a mixture of careful description and the examining of larger issues surrounding the subjects.
		Certainly his poem is much more successful than Ingrid de Kok's "Words from Wars", not because it deploys its elements better (it doesn't), but because it is so true to deeply felt emotions.
		One gathers, then, that De Kock's orbit (like those of Lovell and Ingrid de Kok) is primarily domestic, personal; but like these other writers, he too cannot escape the gravitational pull of his historical moment.
