A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy III English at Massey University [Palmerston North], New Zealand Susan Lillian Williams 2006 11 DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my grandfather and my mother, neither of whom had the privilege of gaining the education that they both so much deserved. I stand on their shoulders, just as my son, David, will stand on mine. The writing of this thesis, however, would not have been possible without the unstinting assistance of Ainslie Hewton. Finally, to my irreplaceable friend,Zeb, the puppy I wanted and never had as a child. Zeb nurtured me throughout this long project and then, in the last week of completion, was called by the black rabbit. Thank you for everything you taught me Zebedee. You and I will always be playing alongside your beloved riverbank. III ABSTRACT Drama has been the slowest of the arts to develop an authentic New Zealand 'voice.' This thesis focuses on the work of five playwrights: Bruce Mason, James K. Baxter, Mervyn Thompson, Renee and Robert Lord, all of whom have set out to identify such a 'voice' and in so doing have brought about a metamorphosis in the nature of New Zealand drama.

    revue littéraire mensuelle novembre-décembre 2006 ÉCRIVAINS DE NOUVELLE-ZÉLANDE Les statistiques placent la Nouvelle-Zélande au premier rang mondial pour la lecture — curieusement avec l’Islande, comme si les pôles étaient propices au commerce avec les livres ! Si Katherine Mansfield fut le premier écrivain néo-zélandais de stature internationale et si Janet Frame a déjà trouvé chez nous de fervents lecteurs, presque tout reste à découvrir de cette littérature. À travers des essais, des nouvelles, des extraits de romans et une anthologie de poèmes, c’est un riche panorama de la littérature néo-zélandaise qui nous est ici offert pour la première fois en français.

FRANÇOIS AUGIÉRAS « Il me semble parfois être une étrange étoile » disait François Augiéras. Mort à 46 ans en 1971, il est l’auteur d’une œuvre inclassable et troublante. Des solitudes du désert algérien aux pentes du mont Athos et aux rives de la Vézère, il vécut en vagabond et en ermite païen. Ayant fait le choix du dénuement et de la joie, c’est dans une langue à la fois fruste et raffinée, brutale et caressante, qu’il célébra la terre, le désir amoureux, la folle aventure et les « mille voix de la nuit ».

    7. Breaking the Stage: From Te Matatini to Footprints/Tapuwae TE RITA PAPESCH, SHARON MAZER The post-imperial writers of the Third World therefore bear their past within them – as scars of humiliating wounds, as instigation for different practices, as potentially revised visions of the past tending towards a post-colonial future, as urgently reinterpretable and redeployable experiences, in which the formerly silent native speaks and acts on territory reclaimed as part of a general movement of resistance, from the colonist.1 You can take my marae to the stage but don’t bring the stage to my marae.2 Mihi Kei te mingenga e pae nei, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa.
