  • South Australian Press Coverage of the Debate on the Climatic Influence of Forests: 1836-1956
    13 South Australian press coverage of the debate on the climatic influence of forests: 1836-1956. Stephen Legg Introduction he origins of the notion that forests could attract rain date back to classical antiquity (Glacken T1967), but in the mid-Nineteenth century the idea became elevated almost to an article of faith among many European scientists in the fields of agriculture, botany and forestry. They were imbued with a new-found appreciation developed during the late-Eighteenth and early-Nineteenth centuries that the Earth was old yet dynamic and that environments, including climate, could change – both naturally and through human agency. The debate on the climatic influence of forests quickly spread to the New World, first in North America and later throughout Australasia particularly with the advance of the agricultural frontier and its attendant assault on the forests. Initially the focus was on the consequences of large-scale removal of trees in heavily-timbered arable lands. Later, attention turned to the possibilities of ‘climate making’ through afforestation both to redress deforestation and to extend the supposed climatic benefit of trees to grasslands. The latter seemed especially important in drought-prone Australia. More than just another scientific controversy or a commentary on contemporary environmental destruction, the notion that trees directly influenced climate also became a familiar historiographical trope in literature as diverse as history, geography and travel- writing to help explain the rise and fall of some civilizations in now arid lands in the Old World. The fledgling sciences of climatology, forestry, and ecology provided further legitimacy in the 1860s to what has been termed an ‘awakening to forest conservation’ through which the various values of forests were considerably prioritised in public policy agendas.

    GriffithREVIEW48.indb 1 13/03/2015 3:58 pm Praise for Griffith Review ‘Essential reading for each and every one of us.’ Readings ‘A varied, impressive and international cast of authors.’ The Australian ‘Griffith Review is a must-read for anyone with even a passing interest in current affairs, politics, literature and journalism. The timely, engaging writing lavishly justifies the Brisbane-based publication’s reputation as Australia’s best example of its genre.’ The West Australian ‘Griffith Review enjoys a much-deserved reputation as one of the best literary journals in Australia. Its contribution to conversations and informed debate on a wide range of topical issues has been outstanding.’ Hon Ian Walker MP, Minister for Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts, Queensland Government ‘This quarterly magazine is a reminder of the breadth and talent of Australian writers. Verdict: literary treat.’ Herald Sun ‘Griffith Review editor Julianne Schultz is the ultra-marathoner of Australian cultural life.’ Canberra Times ‘At a time when long form journalism is under threat and the voices in our public debate are often off-puttingly condescending, hectoring and discordant, Griffith Review is the elegant alternative.’ Booktopia Buzz ‘Griffith Review is Australia’s leading literary journal.’ Monocle ‘Surveying the textured literary landscape that constitutes a Griffith Review issue can lead to some surprising reappraisals of the way we read texts, culture and ideas.’ Melbourne Review ‘Griffith Review is a wonderful journal. It’s pretty much setting the agenda in Australia and fighting way above its weight… You’re mad if you don’t subscribe.’ Phillip Adams ‘Griffith Review is the vantage not of the outraged so much as the frustrated, a reliable forum for passionate criticisms aimed at the inadequacy of political discourse in contemporary Australia.’ Australian Book Review GriffithREVIEW48.indb 1 13/03/2015 3:58 pm SIR SAMUEL GRIFFITH was one of Australia’s great early achievers.

Suddenly the future was tremendously uncertain for 3000 or more employees of the two major Australian newspaper companies and hundreds of thousands of readers. Probably one-quarter of the uncertain jobs belonged to journalists and editors. Fairfax was specific: 1900 jobs would be lost. News did not set a figure, but the estimates by observers put the losses at between 1000 and 1500 jobs.

A one-day symposium, featuring seven speakers and three panellists, will mark the bicentenary of publication of the first issue of the first Australian newspaper, the Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser. When the Sydney Gazette appeared on 5 March 1803, it was intended to serve the Government as well as the people. Probably only 100 copies were printed of the first issue¸ consisting of four small three-column pages of “portfolio” size. Technically, the proprietor was George Howe (1769-1821), a West Indian-born printer transported for life for shoplifting, but the Governor was really the boss. Although the Gazette was a commercial venture, a government press printed it, with the Secretary to Governor King looking over Howe‟s shoulder.

  • German Ethnography in Australia
    12 Herbert Basedow (1881–1933): Surgeon, geologist, naturalist and anthropologist1 David Kaus Herbert Basedow, born in Adelaide to German parents, was to become one of Australia’s leading scientists of the first three decades of the twentieth century. He had broad-ranging interests in geology, zoology and botany, but, arguably, is now best remembered for his contributions to Australian anthropology. In his native South Australia, in particular, Basedow was a significant public figure and, by the time of his death in 1933, he was well known as a commentator on a broad range of issues, as an explorer and as a Member of Parliament (MP). Early life2 Basedow’s parents independently emigrated to Australia in 1848. They married in 1868, the second marriage for each (both of their previous spouses had died). Martin Peter Friedrich Basedow was the first Basedow to arrive in Australia, as an 18-year-old, on 31 March 1848. He was destined to become a prominent figure in South Australia, as a teacher, 1 The second part of this title was derived from Stanner (1976: 131). 2 This section is largely derived from Basedow (1990), except where noted. 301 GERMAN ETHNOGRAPHY IN AUSTRALIA journalist, newspaper owner, editor and MP.

  • Bishop Bugnion, the Mennonites and Australia: the Immigration- That-Never-Was, 1873-1880
    Bishop Bugnion, the Mennonites and Australia: The Immigration- that-never-was, 1873-1880 James Urry, Victoria University of Wellington and Victor G. Wiebe, University of Saskatchewan On the 7 April 1876 the premier of South Australia, James Penn Boucaut, outlined a new policy to develop South Australia’s Northern Territory. At a political meeting he announced that his government and the Right Reverend Bishop Bugnion had signed an agreement to permit the Bishop’s followers to settle in the Territory. These he identified as Mennonites, supposedly a branch of the “Greek” (i.e. Orthodox) Church of which Bishop Bugnion “is the founder.” Mennonites, were “like the Quakers, [who] object on principle to fighting”, and as they “found the military service in Russia hard upon them … their Bishop … had sufficient influence with the Russian Government to get the concession made that his co-religionists might emigrate”. Some had already moved to Canada where it was too cold and so they also wished to come to Australia. Boucaut reported that “the Almighty” had revealed to Bishop Bugnion the Northern Territory as a place of religious freedom and his government would support the immigration of 40,000 Mennonites.1 176 Journal of Mennonite Studies The premier’s comments surprised his listeners and would have surprised contemporary Mennonites if they had known about the agreement. In the 1870s, however, most Mennonites were too busy immigrating to Canada or the United States or negotiating with the Russian government to contemplate Australia. While plans for a Men- nonite migration to South Australia under Bishop Bugnion’s leadership have been discussed by Australian historians, most seem unaware of the disjuncture between Mennonite awareness of such an enterprise, and the faith Australian governments placed in the Bishop’s schemes.2 This article attempts to explain this strange affair.
