		Bleeks merits as a rising scholar were recognized by the minister of public instruction, who continued his stipend as Repetent for a third year, and promised further advancement in due time.
		De Wette was dismissed from his professorship in 1819, and Bleek, a favorite pupil, incurred the suspicion of the government as an extreme democrat.
		At length it was found that Bleek had been confounded with a certain Baueleven Blech, and in 1823 he received the appointment.

		Deep under the impression of the value of the vanishing culture, the German philologist Wilhelm Bleek and his English sister-in-law Lucy Lloyd studied the language and oral literature of a group of /Xam prisoners incarcerated in the Breakwater Prison in Cape Town.
		The authorities allowed Bleek the opporunity to have the prisoners live at his house, and over five years their narratives as well as that of some members of their families were meticulously recorded and studied at the Bleek house in Mowbray.
		Bleek and Lloyd referred to their San informants as ‘givers of the native literature’.

	The Girl Who Made Stars and Other Bushman Stories; by Greg McNamee - Introduction
		Sitting in his brother's windswept garden, notebook in hand, Wilhelm Bleek listened to these stories with a linguist's practiced concentration, striving to record the smallest nuances of pronunciation and grammar, to transcribe the faintest nasalization and the sharpest lateral fricative.
		The body of work Bleek and Lucy Lloyd collected is now generally regarded as the single most reliable body of ethnographic evidence for traditional Bushman culture, and it remains at the heart of the scattered anthropological literature devoted to the first peoples of the Kalahari.
		Bleek observed of the Bushmen that in his day "every man's hand was against them," and that their every hour was laden with peril.

	Specimens of Bushman Folklore; by - Foreword
		The writings of Wilhelm Bleek, Dorothea Bleek, Lucy Lloyd, and G. Stow found in the Collection come directly from the transcribed and painstakingly annotated words of /Xam San ('Bushmen') individuals of the nineteenth century.
		The Bleek and Lloyd Collection can be seen as a 'Rosetta Stone' for understanding both the disappeared /Xam language and the social and cosmological ideas by which the /Xam and their ancestors lived successful lives as hunter-gatherers in southern Africa.
		Though the Bleek and Lloyd Collection is not well known to scholars outside the relatively small group of anthropologists and linguists specializing in San studies, it has supported scholarly projects and publications of profound import.

		Bleek arranged for the release under his supervision of San hunters who had been serving time in Cape Town’s Breakwater prison.
		Indeed, by the time Dorothea Bleek, Wilhelm’s daughter, returned to Africa to complete her father’s work, the scattered survivors had already lost touch with their past.

		These "works" acted as a means of conveying information to the inquiring Bleek and Lloyd, who wrote the artist's explanations of these drawings onto the paper of the drawings themselves.
		In both Bleek and Lloyd's writings and in the notations by the authors of the book, the drawings are treated as indexical for words, for things that are of ethnographic interest.

		The data collected by Bleek and Lloyd is today the only reliable ethnographic record available of the cultural patterns of any of the many groups of Cape hunter-gatherers.
		They were cast in poses which enabled the figures to be displayed later as examples of 'pure Bushmen' pursuing their ancient way of life, rather than for use in a reconstruction of the actual ethnographic situation of these people.

		In this regard, the corpus of accounts and myths collected by Wilhelm Bleek at the end of the 19th century plays a predominant role, as do the anthropological studies carried out throughout the last century among the Kalahari San.
		It is essentially in the double mirror provided by the testimony of a few descendants of the creators of the paintings, and by the observation of societies which may be culturally similar to theirs that analysis of San rock art has been carried out, as if this detour was the best access route.
		Hence, among the accounts collected by Wilhelm Bleek from their last descendants, several stories describe the rain or the capture of rain animals (D. Bleek 1933a,b).

		Those /Xam that Bleek and Lloyd interviewed had been imprisoned in Cape Town (for crimes ranging from sheep-stealing to murder) and in an agreement with the Government were allowed to live with Bleek in his suburban house.
		The transcripts of the interviews have never been published in their entirety (they consist of approximately 12,000 pages) and are accessible only in their original notebook form at the University of Cape Town or in limited collections published by a variety of researchers.

		These rituals were, according to Bleek and Lloyd’s /Xam informants, very much a part of everyday /Xam life, as were other rituals, such as rainmaking and trance healing by shamans.
		Neither were women restricted from handling men’s hunting equipment because they were deemed inferior; men were discouraged from contact with menstrual blood, as it was regarded as extremely potent, thus some rites enhanced the power of women and the hunter.
