Description In memoriam lingua: A linguistic investigation of a metafictional text by Etienne van HeerdenMetafictional texts always problematize explicitly and/or implicitly the ability of language to signify a reality beyond itself It follows that an assessment of a metafictional text should benefit by an investigation of its linguistic fabric. A similar investigation of Etienne van Heerden's short story "Die wederopstanding van Olive” in Liegfahriek (a) outlines a number of the author-narrator's strategies - verbal and non-verbal - in order to circumvent the insignificance of his medium; (b) brings the reader to a realisation of his/her own participation in the stultification of language, and (c) reveals the inherent content of all literary texts.
