  • Sir Paul Edmund Strzelecki Explorer and Scientist1
    Rocznik Muzeum i Archiwum Polonii Australijskiej Vol. 2 ISSN 1325-894X Lech Paszkowski (Melbourne) Sir Paul Edmund Strzelecki Explorer and Scientist1 Strzelecki is the best known of all Poles who have contributed to Australia's history. He achieved fame and outstanding recognition not only in the Antipodes, but in Great Britain, Ireland, the United States and Canada. Polish people contributed little to proclaim his achievements and building his reputation. Occupied with the vital problems of national survival, they gave little thought to one of the hundreds of their able men who went abroad. In fact eighty- four years elapsed from the time of Strzelecki's death until first serious biography about him was published in Poland2, and that only because of the interest of a single writer. Paul Edmund Strzelecki was born on 20 July 1797 at Gluszyna near Poznan.3 He was a descendant of a respectable family, Strzelecki of Strzelce, which had been known as such since 1391.4 The history of this family is outlined by T. Żychliński in the Golden Book of the Polish Nobility. 5 The wealth and influence of the Strzeleckis declined later, but they maintained the standard of 'middle' nobility. The majority of Paul Strzelecki's relatives were university educated, an impossible attainment in the nineteenth centaury foe the poorest of the gentry. Paul's father, Francis Strzelecki, was a Polish nobleman, or szlachcic, who rented two handsome estates, Głuszyna and Babki, the former 900 acres, belonging to a Bishop of Poznan. In 1797 or 1798, the Prussian authorities confiscated these estates and Francis Strzelecki moved out, most probably to another leased property.6 The Strzeleckis of Strzelce were a proud, old family.

    Cambridge Imperial & Post-Colonial Studies SETTLERS, WAR, AND EMPIRE IN THE PRESS UNSETTLING NEWS IN AUSTRALIA AND BRITAIN, 1863-1902 SAM HUTCHINSON Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies Series Series Editors Richard Drayton Department of History King’s College London London, UK Saul Dubow Magdalene College University of Cambridge Cambridge, UK “In its detailed exploration of settler discourses, anxieties, emotions, and enthu- siasms, set alongside British newspaper coverage of Britain’s settler colonies, and a broader structural account of settler colonialism, this book builds on existing scholarship and breaks new ground.” —Ann Curthoys, Emeritus Professor, Australian National University, Australia “This book not only informs us about Australian perspectives on imperial wars, it also enhances our understanding of the imperial press system as one of the cor- nerstones of the British Empire as a whole.” —Alan Lester, Professor of Historical Geography, University of Sussex, UK, and Research Professor in History, La Trobe University, Australia “This timely and ambitious book re-examines settler press accounts of noted British Empire wars: highly charged events to bring to bear historical and theo- retical analyses of settler colonialism and print culture. This is the best kind of postcolonial cultural studies: rigorous in its archival depth, demanding in its argu- mentative reach, and theoretically sophisticated. Language and material power, print and feelings, the quotidian and the epic, the national and the global: each are brought together in productive tension in Hutchinson’s insightful analysis.” —Anna Johnston, Associate Professor, ARC Future Fellow, Institute of Advanced Studies in the Humanities, University of Queensland, Australia The Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies series is a collection of studies on empires in world history and on the societies and cultures which emerged from colonialism.

On arrival in the colony Judge Field chose not to accept the company of Governor Macquarie when he learnt this entailed associating with ex-convicts. Instead Field joined the exclusive society of free settlers dominated by John Macarthur who pursued political beliefs of repression of emancipated convicts. Thereafter, an emancipist attorney commenced a political campaign against exclusivists with Field as their spokesman. This campaign began and ended in the courts as the only venue available for political conflict. The campaign revealed the importance of the role of the courts in colonial society. Not only the free but recently freed and prisoners made use of the courts.
