    MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 324 June 2020 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 324 June 2020 The Black Menace - When the Maltese Migrants were pushed back from Australia by Billy Hughes In 1916, Malta was a poor island, heavily caught up in WWI. It was “the nurse of the Mediterranean”, taking care of 80,000 wounded soldiers, a lot of them Australian. They were shipped in from Gallipoli and other European fronts, where Maltese men were fighting on the side of the British Empire themselves. For a small place, with only a little over 210,000 inhabitants, Malta went above and beyond, and many Australian returned soldiers were grateful. But that didn’t help the Maltese in 1916. When the Gange arrived in WA, Australia was in the grip of a referendum on conscription. Labor Prime Minister Billy Hughes, whose enthusiasm for the war had earned him the moniker “the little digger”, had become worried when the zeal to enlist had dropped off after alarming news of tens of thousands of deaths had been published. His solution was to try and see if he could force men to join the military, but for that he needed the permission of the Australian people. On the 28th of October 1916, there was to be a referendum that asked if they were okay with that. In the lead-up, the country had been split down the middle. Scared of conscription were the unions, who feared that with their members away at the front, their jobs would be taken over by women, or even worse, coloured people.

  • CROWNS and CLONES in CRISIS Christ's College, Cambridge, 19
    DRAFT CROWNS AND CLONES IN CRISIS The case of Malta (and Gibraltar) Christ's College, Cambridge, 19th July 2017 Henry Frendo, University of Malta Much water has passed under the bridge since Malta became an independent and sovereign state on 21st September 1964, but its essentially Westminster-style Constitution has survived with often minor amendments and changes to respond to certain circumstances as these arose. Such amendments have been largely the result of electoral quirks which needed a remedy, but some have also been political and seminal. When Malta's independence was being negotiated in the early 1960s the government of the day, the Nationalist Party led by Dr Borg Olivier, which had 26 out of the 50 parliamentary seats, sought as smooth a transition as possible from colonialism to independence. By contrast, the largest party in Opposition, led by Dominic Mintoff, wanted radical changes. Three smaller parties were opposed to Independence fearing that Malta would not survive and thrive. One bone of contention was whether Malta should remain a member of the Commonwealth or not. Another was whether Malta should be a constitutional monarchy or not. In both these cases the Borg Olivier view prevailed. Moreover the draft Constitution was approved in a referendum held in May 1964. The vision was that there would be a transition from dependence on employment with the British services, given that Malta had long been regarded and served as a strategic fortress colony in the Central Mediterranean, to a more home-grown 1 and self-sufficient outfit based on industry, tourism and agriculture.

  • Website Biography
    ! Michael Falzon is widely recognised as one of Australia’s most diversely talented entertainers. Falzon’s early career saw him working throughout Australia and touring Asia in many musicals including those by Gilbert & Sullivan, Jerry Herman and Andrew Lloyd Webber, paving the way for a versatility seldom seen in stage performers. His break-through role came in 2003 when he was hand-picked by Ben Elton and QUEEN's Brian May & Roger Taylor to star as ‘Galileo’ in the first international production of We Will Rock You. With unanimous critical acclaim Falzon was invited to reprise the role in Japan and led the cast to break box-office records in the United Kingdom, playing the show’s first-ever arena in 2010, The Times proclaiming “… with a panache (of which) Freddie Mercury would have approved, Falzon simply let rip.” His stage appearances include Sydney Theatre Company’s The Wharf Revue, performing with luminaries Justin Hayward (The Moody Blues) and Chris Thompson (Manfred Mann’s Earth Band) in Jeff Wayne’s The War of the Worlds (Australia/New Zealand & UK/Europe arena tours), and with Rachael Beck and Geraldine Turner in Side by Side by Sondheim. His performance in Adam Guettel’s Floyd Collins, prompted StageNoise to write “As Homer, Falzon underlines why he is a bona fide international musical theatre star”, and of his portrayal of ‘Judas’ in Jesus Christ Superstar The Sydney Morning Herald further reviewed, “Falzon’s performance is riveting, commanding the stage and traversing the fine line between villain and victim. It is a tour de force performance that compels engagement.” Other notable roles include ‘Stacee Jaxx’ in Rock of Ages.

  • National Museums in Malta Romina Delia
    Building National Museums in Europe 1750-2010. Conference proceedings from EuNaMus, European National Museums: Identity Politics, the Uses of the Past and the European Citizen, Bologna 28-30 April 2011. Peter Aronsson & Gabriella Elgenius (eds) EuNaMus Report No 1. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=064 © The Author. National Museums in Malta Romina Delia Summary In 1903, the British Governor of Malta appointed a committee with the purpose of establishing a National Museum in the capital. The first National Museum, called the Valletta Museum, was inaugurated on the 24th of May 1905. Malta gained independence from the British in 1964 and became a Republic in 1974. The urge to display the island’s history, identity and its wealth of material cultural heritage was strongly felt and from the 1970s onwards several other Museums opened their doors to the public. This paper goes through the history of National Museums in Malta, from the earliest known collections open to the public in the seventeenth century, up until today. Various personalities over the years contributed to the setting up of National Museums and these will be highlighted later on in this paper. Their enlightened curatorship contributed significantly towards the island’s search for its identity. Different landmarks in Malta’s historical timeline, especially the turbulent and confrontational political history that has marked Malta’s colonial experience, have also been highlighted. The suppression of all forms of civil government after 1811 had led to a gradual growth of two opposing political factions, involving a Nationalist and an Imperialist party.
