It needs to be checked thoroughly for every possible clue. Any printed, annotated or inscribed information could be useful. When this process is finished, secondary sources like this guide may help. All of the entries in the Sydney and Melbourne Directories have the following elements: Name, designation, dates, addresses, and sources. Up to three items may be listed under Music at the foot of each entry, particularly if there is no biographical note. If there are more than three items, or there is a biographical note, the music will be found embedded in the biographical note at the top of each entry. A Bibliography may also be at the foot of each entry, giving basic resources for compiling the biography, and whether the publisher has published items that are listed in PICA. Examples of directory entries KERN & MADER (Kern, Charles; Mader, Frederic) (from Sydney Directory) Name of Firm Music sellers, stationers and bookbinders General designation Kern & Mader superseded Kern & Co (qv) at 7 Hunter st and were listed in directories and newspapers from 1846 to 1853 at this address that appears on all their publications. They are described as music sellers, stationers and bookbinders on the back of Isaac Nathan's work Lungi dal Caro Bene which they published in 1853. They published two further works of Isaac Nathan (qv), his arrangement of Handel's Angels Ever Bright and Fair and Long Live our Gracious Queen. There are also reviews of the last named on the back cover of Sir Wilfred by Nathan that was published by William Baker (qv). There is one work published by Kern & Mader in PICA, The Australian Souvenir for 1851. The partnership was terminated on 30 June 1853 and fromJuly 1853 both were operating independently. Charles Kern (qv) continued at 7 Hunter st from July 1853 to November 1854. Mader(qv) was a bookseller and stationer in George st until 1865.

These include J R Clarke, Francis Cunninghame, John Degotardi, Francis Ellard, W J Johnson, Henry Marsh, Isaac Nathan, Nicholson & Co, W H Paling, Charles Troedel & Co and Woolcott & Clarke in the Sydney Directory; and Allan & Co, W H Glen, Nicholson & Ascherberg, Nicholson & Co, Charles Troedel and Wilkie's companies in the Melbourne Directory. These have extensive lists of publications after the biographical notes, to demonstrate the scope of publishing or printing activity, but they are not comprehensive. In some of these entries, examples are listed in address ie date order. Again these listings are not comprehensive, but indicative of the comparative output of a printer or publisher at various addresses. In the cataloguing of a piece of music, there is a hierarchy of bibliographical elements that are addressed in turn in order to describe it sufficiently to identify it, and to establish the uniqueness of the work in hand. Each step of this process may provide indicators that help in dating the work. Authorship is the element most eagerly sought after. For this repertoire, the primary authors are the composers, lyricists, arrangers and librettists. There are very few authors with their own entries in the directories, and so verification or dating is not greatly helped, apart from those composers who were actively involved with printing or publishing, or whose families were. In the Sydney directory, those composers with their own entries are V Abrahams, Alfred Anderson, James Henry Anderson, Thomas Banks, W H Binstead, Frederick Ellard, William Ellard, John Gibbs, Charles Huenerbein, James Johnson, William J Johnson, Kavanagh, John Lhotsky, Henry Marsh, Stephen Hale Marsh, Lewis Moss, Isaac Nathan, W H Paling, James Pearson, George Peck, Francis R Peel, L A Pogonowski, Joseph Reichenberg, J A Reid, George Sippe and Thomas Stubbs. In the Melbourne directory, composers with their own entries are T E Bulch, George Chapman, W R Furlong, Adela Hammond, Robert Mackie, Stephen Hale Marsh and Joseph Wilkie. Additional sources of information for names are ABN (particularly the authority files), ADB and similar biographical dictionaries, various editions of The Australian Encyclopaedia and OCAM. 119 Information from titles that may assist in dating like names, places, ships, events etc. is unlikely to be looked for in the Directories or Chronology, but may be found in other secondary sources for example gazetteers, encyclopaedias, shipping records, historical and literary resources. The titles listed in the publisher and printer entries in the directories are not comprehensive, and they may refer to a different edition to that in hand. There are seldom consistent ways of describing reprints or editions in this repertoire. In the absence of an edition statement, one marker of a later or earlier printing, that is a change of address, will seldom be found on the bibliographic records, but only on the items themselves. In the directories, this accounts for the same item sometimes being listed at two different addresses for the same publisher or printer. The core of the directories are the publisher and printer entries. There are 450 entries in the Sydney Directory and 134 in the Melbourne Directory. For this study, there are no entries for printers or publishers that may have published music, but have not yet been found to do so. Companies that have a listing, but no music in them are later or earlier associated companies of those that have printed or published music. They are included to provide a fuller representation of the lifespan of the person or company. References at the foot of the directory component of the entries provide cross references to related companies. There are 2,000 entries listed in PICA, 115 of which published music as well as Ferguson items. There are always references to PICA when applicable in both printer and publisher entries in the directories. In many cases, PICA has earlier addresses than those found in city directories, and the source for these addresses is designated as PICA. In the Melbourne and Sydney directories, the amount of information relating to each entry varies considerably, but it is often more extensive than that in PICA, as the directories in this study were compiled from the music, city directories, periodicals and newspapers, and not just from the time span of the publication of the Ferguson items, as in PICA. One of the difficulties in identifying items is the lack of accurate publisher citations in bibliographic records, ie Allans is often used when this is not what is on the item (eg Allan & Co, Allan & Co Ltd) The lack of printer information on bibliographic records is standard practice, but if it were present it would enable dating to be more precise. In some cases on ABN, this has enabled the scope dates to be narrower than they would be if only the publisher scope dates are used. In these cases the printer is usually present in a note field, and so adds useful information not only for the item 120 concerned, but perhaps for another similar one.

    1954, Addio Trieste... The Triestine Community of Melbourne Adriana Nelli A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University November 2000 -^27 2->v<^, \U6IL THESIS 994.5100451 NEL 30001007178181 Ne 1 li, Adriana 1954, addio Trieste— the Triestine community of MeIbourne I DECLARATION I hereby declare that this thesis is the product of my original work, including all translations from Italian and Triestine. An earlier form of Chapter 5 appeared in Robert Pascoe and Jarlath Ronayne, eds, The passeggiata of Exile: The Italian Story in Australia (Victoria University, Melbourne, 1998). Parts of my argument also appeared in 'L'esperienza migratoria triestina: L'identita' culturale e i suoi cambiamenti' in Gianfranco Cresciani, ed., Giuliano-Dalmati in Australia: Contributi e testimonianze per una storia (Associazione Giuliani nel Mondo, Trieste, 1999). Adriana Nelli ABSTRACT Triestine migration to Australia is the direct consequence of numerous disputations over the city's political boundaries in the immediate post- World War II period. As such the triestini themselves are not simply part of an overall migratory movement of Italians who took advantage of Australia's post-war immigration program, but their migration is also the reflection of an important period in the history of what today is known as the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region.. 1954 marked the beginning of a brief but intense migratory flow from the city of Trieste towards Australia. Following a prolonged period of Anglo-American administration, the city had been returned to Italian jurisdiction once more; and with the dismantling of the Allied caretaker government and the subsequent economic integration of Trieste into the Italian State, a climate of uncertainty and precariousness had left the Triestines psychologically disenchanted and discouraged.

Apart from a few dozen houses across the River Dun at Bridgehouses and in the Wicker, and a similar number at Parkhill, the whole of the built-up area was within a 600 yard radius centred on the Old Church.1 Within that brief radius the most northerly development was that at Bower Lane (Gibraltar), and only a limited incursion had been made hitherto into Colson Crofts (the fields between West Bar and the river). On the western and north-western edges there had been development along Hollis Croft and White Croft, and to a lesser degree along Pea Croft and Lambert Knoll (Scotland). To the south-west the building on the western side of Coalpit Lane was over the boundary in Ecclesall, but still a recognisable part of the town.2 To the south the gardens and any buildings were largely confined by the Park wall which kept Alsop Fields free of dwellings except for the ingress along the northern part of Pond Lane. The Rivers Dun and Sheaf formed a natural barrier on the east and north-east, and the low-lying Ponds area to the south-east was not ideal for house construction.

  • Making It in the Melbourne Music Scene Post-Punk and Post-Post-Punk
    Making it in the Melbourne Music Scene Post-Punk and Post-Post-Punk Dr Sarah Taylor School of Science RMIT University Victoria, Australia [email protected] This paper uses contemporary documentation, interviews and maps to highlight the different types of music careers, and modes of “making it”, seen in the 1986 feature film Dogs in Space. The film concerns a fictional band of the same name, based on The Ears, a minor group active in the Melbourne band scene between 1979-1981. INXS’s Michael Hutchence plays Sam, the singer in post punk group Dogs in Space. The contrast between Hutchence and Sejavka was seen as remarkable: a major-league rock star, having “made it” by the time of the film’s production, portraying a relatively obscure post-punk musician. However, the trajectories of these bands did overlap in time and place. An historical geographical analysis of INXS and The Ears can help to add context to the Melbourne music scene depicted in the film, as well as to the later cult status popularity of the film, made during a transitional time between norms in the Australian music industry. Keywords — Music industry; post punk; Melbourne; INXS; The Ears; Dogs In Space; restructuring. INTRODUCTION I was far more interested in doing, instead of your rags-to-riches pop star story, your rags-to-gutter story... by actually showing the ones that don’t become famous. — Richard Lowenstein, director of Dogs in Space (quoted in Coupe, 1986) At the time of its release in late 1986, Dogs in Space provided a compelling contrast between the heights of music industry success enjoyed by one of its stars, Michel Hutchence, and the exciting but imploding music movement it depicted (Smith, 1986, McGregor, 1986, Coupe, 1986).
