A Demanding and Uncertain Adventure
2011 THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE A demanding and uncertain adventure Exploration of a concern for Earth restoration and how we must live to pass on to our children – and their children, and all living things – an Earth restored THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURES The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on its establishment in 1964. They are named after James Backhouse who, with his companion, George Washington Walker, visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered at The Innovations Centre adjoining Wollongong East Campus, New South Wales in January 2011.

Reflections on the Preparation and Delivery of Carl Strehlow's Heritage
Language Documentation & Conservation Special Publication No. 18 Archival returns: Central Australia and beyond ed. by Linda Barwick, Jennifer Green & Petronella Vaarzon-Morel, pp. 47–63 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/sp18 3 http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24877 Reflections on the preparation and delivery of Carl Strehlow’s heritage dictionary (1909) to the Western Aranda people Anna Kenny Australian National University Abstract This chapter reflects on the predicaments encountered while bringing ethnographic and linguistic archival materials, and in particular an Aranda, German, Loritja [Luritja], and Dieri dictionary manuscript compiled by Carl Strehlow and with more than 7600 entries, into the public domain. This manuscript, as well as other unique documents held at the Strehlow Research Centre in Alice Springs and elsewhere in Australia, is surrounded by competing views about ownership and control. In this case study I discuss my research and work with Western Aranda people concerning the transcription and translation into English of the dictionary manuscript. I also discuss the immense difficulties I faced in seeing the dictionary through to final publication. I encountered vested interests in this ethno-linguistic treasure that I had not been aware of and ownership claims that I had not taken into account. They arose from diverse quarters – from academia, from individuals in the Lutheran church, from Indigenous organisations, and from the Northern Territory Government. One such intervention almost derailed the dictionary work by actions that forced the suspension of the project for over 12 months. In this chapter I track the complex history of this manuscript, canvas the views of various stakeholders, and detail interpretations and reactions of Aranda people to the issues involved.

STEP Newsletter March 2019
STEP Newsletter March 2019 Rytidosperma bipartitum, Leafy Wallaby Grass From the President At the time of writing (late February) I am much relieved that the horrendous days of extreme heat appear to be behind us. The dryness continues to be a concern even though we have had some sporadic falls of rain. A slow and steady soaking would be at the top of our wish list. The new shed project is very exciting (see article). I would like to extend sincere thanks to all who were able to give donations to help us with the fitout of the shed and allow for more projects later in the year. The Arboretum has been very generous in its support of the shed construction also. Thanks must go to Terry Murphy, Bill Handke and Ross Dalton (Treasurer) for their work in bringing this project to fruition. Soon we will have a “Fair Dinkum” shed at Forest 20. Invitations are being sent out to STEP members for the Soiree to celebrate 10 years since the planting of the first eucalypts at Forest 20. Thursday working bees have been focussed on ensuring that STEP will look its best for that occasion. Please ensure you send your rsvp to [email protected] by 18 March for catering purposes. In addition to our usual activities, David Shorthouse has been very busy furthering our contact with CIT (see article) and promoting STEP as an “in the field” leaning space for a range of CIT courses. I hope you enjoy the content of this Newsletter and that I get to meet some of you at our Soiree.

A Note on Sources
A Note on Sources Ming’s extraordinary papers, now lodged with the National Library of Australia in Canberra as the Joan Kingsley-Strack papers, provide the basis for my recon- struction of her story. They include her personal diaries and correspondences, as well as the papers of the Committee for Aboriginal Citizenship. I have generally cited her sources only where they refer to letters or to the CAC records, rather than citing her personal diary entries exhaustively. I have supplemented her papers with a wide range of contemporary records and other sources held in Australian libraries and archives. These include the papers of individuals, organ- izations and government bodies, including the ofﬁcial records of the NSW Aborigines Protection Board. I further relied on a range of published contempo- rary sources, such as the NSW Parliamentary Debates (published annually and held at the State Library of NSW), government reports and newspaper articles. Books and journal articles I have drawn on – that is, published secondary sources – are cited in the notes and publication details follow in the Bibliography. For those readers who are interested to trace the archival references and sources that make up the bulk of my research, I suggest they see my unpublished history the- sis, ‘My One Bright Spot’, which is lodged with the History Department at the University of Sydney. Readers who wish to contact me for further details or to add information, can write to me care of the History Department, Flinders University, GPO Box 2100, Adelaide SA 5001. Abbreviations and locations of archival sources referred to in the notes AA Australian Archives, Canberra AE A.

Book Reviews
BOOK REVIEWS Oodgeroo : A Tribute. A special issue of Australian Literary Studies . Volume 16, No. 4. Edited by Adam Shoemaker, Laurie Hergenhan and Irmtraud Petersson. University of Queensland Press, Brisbane, 1994. Pp xv + 190. $19.95 Glancing down the page of Janine Little's useful checklist of material by and about Kath Walker/Oodgeroo included in this special issue of ALS, I note that the present publication represents the only book-length discussion of Oodgeroo's work, with the exception of a text by A1 Grassby. So Oodgeroo : A Tribute, guest-edited by Shoemaker, with Hergenhan as associate editor and Petersson as editorial assistant, fills something of a gap and does so within a year of the death of a notable Australian. It should be said that one approaches any tribute, and its attendant pieties, with understandable reservations. This one, however, works well as a book introducing Oodgeroo's preoccupations to the general public, and without excess of good manners and p.c. — in no small part because of the influence of Oodgeroo herself, whose vital personality breaks through formal barriers, in quotations of her own lively and pointed utterances, in obviously heartfelt reminiscences of those who loved her, and (even) in the assessments of well-meaning academics. Oodgeroo : A Tribute consists of eighteen articles of varying length by relatives, friends, work-associates, writers and critics. Of its three sections, the first, which is the most personal, is headed 'Reminiscence, Record, Travel';' the second, which is analytic, is headed 'Poetry'; and the third, which looks at the wider range of activities and achievement, 'Voices: Educationist, Activist, Performer'.

Cover image: Artwork by Julie Gough. Detail, Intertidal resulted from an invitation to participate in an exhibition <Abstractions>. My concept was to arrive with raw materials collected during my journey to the Canberra gallery from which new works would be made. One of the four pieces produced was titled Intertidal for which I finely ground-up the materials and applied them to a board surface in linear striations. Each ‘stripe’ represented my absence from Tasmania as well as the fulfilling exploration of working with and combining new materials to describe my, at the time, nomadic life.
