KING he founding of the Botany Bay colony in 1788 was viewed with disquiet in Spain and its empire, accustomed as its rulers were for over three-and-a-half Tcenturies to view the whole Pacific as their exclusive preserve. Over the following two decades, as a titanic struggle played out between Britain and France for world dominance, a defensive Spanish empire had to consider how to react to the strategic challenge of the new colony. The immediate Spanish reaction was to include a visit to the colony in the itinerary of the 1789-94 expedition commanded by Alexandro Malaspina. 1786: Announcement of the Botany Bay colony The British Government made the decision to colonise Botany Bay on the coast of New South Wales on 26 August 1786 and the news was promptly published in the London press. The Spanish ambassador in London, Bernardo del Campo, immediately forwarded translations of the press reports to Prime Minister José 1 Moñino Floridablanca in Madrid. The Gazeta de Madrid of 13 and 20 October and 14 November 1786 carried articles on the matter drawn from the English newspapers. The articles were soundly based on the proposal by James Matra for colonising New South Wales. An article published on 12 October 1786 said: ‘Mr Matra, an Officer of the Treasury, who, sailing with Capt Cook, had an opportunity of visiting Botany Bay, is the Gentleman who suggested the plan to Government of 2 transporting convicts to that island.’ The advantages of New South Wales given by Matra for a colony were that: the country was suitable for plantations of sugar, cotton and tobacco; New Zealand timber and flax could prove valuable commodities; it could form a base for trade with China, Korea, Japan, the north-west coast of America and the Moluccas; and it could be a suitable compensation for displaced American Loyalists, ‘where they may repair their broken fortunes & again enjoy their former domestick felicity’. He emphasised the strategic advantages to be derived from the colony. An article 126 JRAHS Vol. 106 Part 2 published widely in the London press in October 1786, drawn from Matra’s proposal, and reproduced in the press of other countries, said: The central situation which New South Wales, in which Botany Bay is situated, holds in the globe, cannot fail of giving it a very commanding influence in the policy of Europe … When this colony from England is established, if we should ever be at war with Holland or Spain we might very powerfully annoy either State from the new settlement. We might, with equal safety and expedition, make naval incursions into Java, and the other Dutch settlements, or invade the coast of Spanish America, and intercept the Manilla ships. Thus this check would, in time of war, make it a very 3 important object, when we view it in the chart of the world with a political eye . The announcement of the intention of the British Government to colonise Botany Bay and Norfolk Island in the seas adjacent was cause for concern to Spain. Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, the Spanish monarchy strongly defended its claim to the whole Pacific Ocean, its coasts and islands, which stemmed back to the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas with Portugal, against encroachments by France, Holland, and above all by England. Any attempt to make the Pacific more accessible to the other European nations posed a threat to the security of the Spanish empire, and the Spanish authorities were well aware that Britain, irrespective of treaties, was hostile to their claims to exclusive navigation in the Pacific. Spanish reactions to the voyages of James Cook clearly indicated their apprehensions.

    The Scottish Background of the Sydney Publishing and Bookselling

    NOT MUCH ORIGINALITY ABOUT US: SCOTTISH INFLUENCES ON THE ANGUS & ROBERTSON BACKLIST Caroline Viera Jones he Scottish background of the Sydney publishing and bookselling firm of TAngus & Robertson influenced the choice of books sold in their bookshops, the kind of manuscripts commissioned and the way in which these texts were edited. David Angus and George Robertson brought fi'om Scotland an emphasis on recognising and fostering a quality homegrown product whilst keeping abreast of the London tradition. This prompted them to publish Australian authors as well as to appreciate a British literary canon and to supply titles from it. Indeed, whilst embracing his new homeland, George Robertson's backlist of sentimental nationalistic texts was partly grounded in the novels and verse written and compiled by Sir Walter Scott, Robert Bums and the border balladists. Although their backlist was eclectic, the strong Scottish tradition of publishing literary journals, encyclopaedias and religious titles led Angus & Robertson, 'as a Scotch firm' to produce numerous titles for the Presbyterian Church, two volumes of the Australian Encyclopaedia and to commission writers from journals such as the Bulletin. 1 As agent to the public and university libraries, bookseller, publisher and Book Club owner, the firm was influential in selecting primary sources for the colony of New South Wales, supplying reading material for its Public Library and fulfilling the public's educational and literary needs. 2 The books which the firm published for the See Rebecca Wiley, 'Reminiscences of George Robertson and Angus & Robertson Ltd., 1894-1938' ( 1945), unpublished manuscript, Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, ML MSS 5238.

    Dunera Lives

    Dunera Lives: A Visual History (Monash University Publishing) by Ken Inglis, Seumas Spark and Jay Winter with Carol Bunyan Launch Speech, National Library of Australia, 4 July 2018 Frank Bongiorno Good evening. I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet, the Ngunnawal people, and pay my respects to their elders, past and present. And, of course, I acknowledge members of the Inglis, Turner and Dunera families. Dunera Lives: A Visual History is a result of the historical project to which Professor Ken Inglis devoted the last years of a long and fruitful life as a historian. It is also the product of a great friendship between the co-authors; between Ken and Jay Winter, stretching back many decades, and between Ken, Jay and Seumas Spark, one of more recent vintage, but the bond between Ken and Seumas more like kinship than friendship in Ken’s final years. It is testament to Ken’s own gift of friendship that he was able to bring together these fine scholars to research and write Dunera Lives and, with the help of the excellent Monash University Publishing, to see it through to completion. And as explained in the general introduction, the book has benefited enormously from the continuing research of Carol Bunyan on the Dunera internees. I’m sure you will agree, one you’ve had a chance to see it and, I hope, to buy a copy, that Dunera Lives: A Visual History is a remarkably beautiful volume. Less obvious, until you’ve had a chance to begin reading it, will be that it is also both meticulous and humane in its scholarship.

    Lessons in Leadership the Life of Sir John Monash GCMG, KCB, VD

    Lessons in Leadership The Life of Sir John Monash GCMG, KCB, VD By Rolfe Hartley FIEAust CPEng EngExec FIPENZ Engineers Australia Sydney Division CELM Presentation March 2013 Page 1 Introduction The man that I would like to talk about today was often referred to in his lifetime as ‘the greatest living Australian’. But today he is known to many Australians only as the man on the back of the $100 note. I am going to stick my neck out here and say that John Monash was arguably the greatest ever Australian. Engineer, lawyer, soldier and even pianist of concert standard, Monash was a true leader. As an engineer, he revolutionised construction in Australia by the introduction of reinforced concrete technology. He also revolutionised the generation of electricity. As a soldier, he is considered by many to have been the greatest commander of WWI, whose innovative tactics and careful planning shortened the war and saved thousands of lives. Monash was a complex man; a man from humble beginnings who overcame prejudice and opposition to achieve great things. In many ways, he was an outsider. He had failures, both in battle and in engineering, and he had weaknesses as a human being which almost put paid to his career. I believe that we can learn much about leadership by looking at John Monash and considering both the strengths and weaknesses that contributed to his greatness. Early Days John Monash was born in West Melbourne in 1865, the eldest of three children and only son of Louis and Bertha. His parents were Jews from Krotoshin in Prussia, an area that is in modern day Poland.

    Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1

    10 Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1 TheOxford English Dictionary defines networking as ‘the action or process of making use of a network of people for the exchange of information, etc., or for professional or other advantage’.2 Although recently prominent in management theory, the art of networking has been practised over many centuries in many societies, but its role in the Australian academic community has been little explored. This essay represents a preliminary excursion into the field, raising questions that more systematic researchers may follow in time, and drawing unashamedly on the resources of the Australian Dictionary of Biography. Beginning on the eve of the First World War, the essay is bounded by the formation of the Australian Historical Association in 1973, at which date the profession provided itself with 1 This essay is a lightly edited version of the paper prepared by Geoffrey Bolton for the ‘Workshop on Biographies and Autobiographies of Historians’ held at The Australian National University in July 2015. Professor Bolton had intended to make further revisions, which included adding some analysis of the social origins of the Australian historians who participated in the networks he had defined. In all essential respects, however, we believe that the essay as presented here would have met with his approval, and we are very grateful to Carol Bolton for giving permission to make the modest editorial changes that we have incorporated.

Manning Clark was fresh out of the University of Melbourne, full of socialist and Freudian ideas about what was wrong with the world and how it should be improved. The night before he alighted at that station roving gangs of Nazi stormtroopers had smashed up every Jewish business house in Bonn and elsewhere in Germany. Clark made his way amid the debris throughout Bonn in a state of disbelief. “That was the beginning of an awakening”, he recalled recently. “That was the moment when I realised that I would have to start to think again about the whole human situation.” Clark was born the second son of an Anglican clergyman in Sydney in March 1915. His parents named him Charles Manning Hope Clark, a resounding enough emblem of this ecclesiastical background. An uncle and an older brother followed this clerical tradition, but Clark decided at a young age that God’s emissaries in Australia had either misunderstood the religious needs of the people or were misrepresenting what there was to know and preach about man, his relations with others, and nature.

Downloaded from VU Research Repository https://vuir.vu.edu.au/39777/ Re-Creating Home and Exploring Away in New Cities: Italian Migration and Football Codes Within Australian Urban CenterCentres Abstract Migrants are often characteriseized as in search of new homes, while spectator sports are frequently spoken of as providing homes for the followers of particular teams. However the particular kinds of ‘homes’ that spectator sports can provide for migrants is understudied. This paper explores the sporting ‘homes’ found by those who migrated from Italy to Australia after the Second World War. In particular it examines the different experiences of those who found a home in the mainstream sport of Australian Rules football with the more culturally peripheral sport of Association football (soccer). Drawing on 59 oral history interviews with first and second generation migrants to the Australian cities of Melbourne and Sydney, the paper provides a window into the meanings, passions, exclusion, inclusion, intergenerational tensions, and intergenerational bonding that these migrants found in, and created through, Australian Rules football and soccer.
