Director-General Jan Fullerton said this is the most ambitious exhibition ever undertaken by an Australian library. National Treasures is unparalleled for its scale, significance of content and for the scope of its touring schedule. After the huge success of Treasures from the World's Great Libraries, the Council of Australian State Libraries (CASL) wanted to show the superb collections held in the nation’s major public research libraries which reflect our past as well as contemporary Australia. It is a joint venture between the National Library as manager and the state and territory libraries in lending their treasured items and providing curatorial and conservation assistance. We are also most grateful for the unprecedented support of our corporate sponsors and the Australian Government. 4 KNOWIT. OCT - DEC 2005 The exhibition includes manuscripts, maps, books, paintings and objects which have been brought together for the first time. Each item has been carefully chosen for its narrative power and how it relates to the people, places and events that have made the nation what it is today. Divided into eight themes, National Treasures spans the earliest European depiction of the Southern Cross drawn in the 16th century, through our convict and colonial era, two world wars, recent innovations, our cultural life and our obsessions with sport, food and wine. Exhibition curator Margaret Dent said the exhibition's strength is about seeing the real thing. ‘Original material is enormously powerful because it links you to the actual event. National Treasures presents personal accounts of perseverance, good and bad luck, and success and failure, which are at times awe-inspiring, at other times saddening, but always illuminating. Some stories we know well but knowledge of others has diminished over time. Through National Treasures, Australians will see their history with new eyes.’ Every object describes a moment of significance in our changing society. • Captain Cook's handwritten Endeavour Journal (1768- 1771) records the voyage of the Endeavour to the South Seas to observe the transit of Venus and to search for a southern continent. Also on board was the botanist Joseph Banks. Cook and Banks each kept a personal journal. This exhibition brings them together for the first time since that voyage ended. Cook's Endeavour Journal was added to the UNESCO Memory of the World International Register in 2001 together with Eddie Mabo's papers, also in the exhibition. • Donald Bradman's favourite bat which he used to make the world record test cricket score of 334 against England at Leeds in July 1930. • The helmet worn by Ned Kelly at the siege of Glenrowan on 28 June 1880. The siege was the Kelly Gang's last stand. • Azaria Chamberlain's hospital identification bracelet and birth details record, as well as Lindy Chamberlain's strike statement written while in gaol in Darwin. • P.L. Travers, the Australian creator of the well-known nanny Mary Poppins, documents her strong dislike of the proposed Walt Disney version of the character and her story. • A game, ‘Dugouts and Trenches’, celebrating Australia's role fighting in World War I sits alongside a tally book from Gallipoli showing the horrendous casualties. • Olympic swimmer, Shane Gould's travel diary kept during the 1972 Munich Olympics which would be marred by a terrorist attack.

  • Abolitionist Or Relativist? : Australia’S Legislative and International Responses to Its International Human Rights Death Penalty Abolition Obligations
    University of Western Sydney Law Review Volume 15 (2011) 40 ABOLITIONIST OR RELATIVIST? : AUSTRALIA’S LEGISLATIVE AND INTERNATIONAL RESPONSES TO ITS INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS DEATH PENALTY ABOLITION OBLIGATIONS GREG CARNE ABSTRACT The Commonwealth Parliament has enacted human rights amendments to the Death Penalty Abolition Act 1973 (Cth), extending the existing prohibition against reintroduction of the death penalty to State laws. This legislation is most fully comprehended through examination of several background circumstances, including Australia‘s international abolitionist position. A brief consideration is made of the contemporary human rights policy context from which the death penalty abolition extension has emerged, including the Commonwealth Government‘s response to the National Human Rights Consultation Report, and factors reflecting Australia‘s re- engagement with the United Nations human rights system, including Universal Periodic Review and the bid for a seat on the UN Security Council. Earlier Commonwealth abolition of the death penalty is discussed, and a legal and constitutional analysis made of amendments in relation to states. The reform‘s importance is highlighted by the context of state based law and order debates in the age of terrorism, with politicians raising the possibility of death sentence re-introduction. The reform is considered in an international context of Australians sentenced to death overseas and various inconsistencies in Australian international opposition to the death penalty, based on Australian obligations under Article 6 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and its Second Optional Protocol, and the BA, LLB (Hons) (Monash), Dip Ed (Melbourne), PhD (ANU), Barrister and Solicitor (Vic), Associate Professor, University of Western Australia.

  • The Poetry of Alison Croggon and Rebecca Edwards Introduction
    ‘A Spirit of Eclecticism’: Critical Engagements with Australia’s Innovative New Nineties Poetries by Debbie M. Comerford BA (JCU), BA Hons. (USQ) Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Humanities & International Studies University of Southern Queensland January 2008 ABSTRACT In the 1990s Australia’s poetry milieu was enlivened by the emergence of a number of new poets and their poetry. This study groups these poets together under the title of ‘new nineties poets and poetries’. For the purposes of this study ‘new nineties poets and poetries’ refers to poetry written for the page by poets who published their first collection between 1990 and 2000 and who continue to write into the twenty-first century. New nineties poets and their poetry are not a new ‘movement’ or ‘school’ of poets; the poetry is characterised by diverse forms, styles, approaches and practices. Within these eclectic poetic practices emerge shared concerns with the issues of embodiment, language, cultural difference and violence. As John Leonard discusses, the “new poets evade categorization” (New Music xv) and it is the premise of this study that appropriate poetry criticism needs to respect and celebrate the eclecticism of new nineties poetries by resisting the convenient application of categories and divisive labels. This study attends to the critical question of what type of poetry criticism is appropriate for new nineties poetries. One answer to this question emanates from what Leonard describes as the “spirit of eclecticism” that characterises this new poetry (New Music xv). Criticism that works with this “spirit of eclecticism” will be as eclectic as the poetry itself.
