Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Klaus Berberich for giving me an oppor- tunity to work under his guidance. This work is made possible with his unconditional support, expert scientific advice, and futuristic vision. However, the encouraging aspect of working under him was the exceptional freedom he granted to pursue challenging problems from various fields of information science (retrieval, summarization, and spatiotemporal text mining). In addition, our common interest in music that often triggered very interesting conversations made work even more enjoyable. I am extremely thankful to Gerhard Weikum for supporting me throughout my Master’sand Ph.D studies. His high standards of conducting research constantly inspired and trained me to become a better researcher. I also thank the additional reviewers and examiners, Dietrich Klakow and Claudia Hauff for providing valuable feedback for further improvements of this work.

The Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council will fly flags as an expression of Council’s governance responsibilities and will ensure that the flags displayed are acknowledged with due diligence, dignity and attention to position. This Policy does not cover flag poles or flags flown by third parties in Council memorial areas (eg RSL). 2.

  • Golden Ochre, Blue Down Under
    Golden ochre, blue down under Antony Burton Abstract In a land of ancestral ochres, of endless horizons beyond the blue, the persistence of blue and gold in Australian flags and symbols since European settlement is explored and explained. Con- clusions are drawn as to their enduring significance, and implications sketched that could influ- ence flag innovations in the future. The essential criteria are respect for a sense of national be- longing and a place in the sun, in a design striking enough to claim distinctiveness in a field al- ready favoured internationally. Archive and other sources offer clues. Lesser known aspects of Australian vexillo-hagiography are brought to light, suggesting that the livery of green and yel- low, suited perhaps to flags of equatorial zones, should be returned to Brazil. Preamble Though a land of golden ochres, Australia’s flag is mostly blue. The Flags Act 1953 defines it in part as “a blue flag”.1 Why blue? For many, Australia still lies mentally as well as literally at the other end of the world. It is out there beyond the blue. It is still hazardous to get there, especially by boat, as even Norwegian captains have found.2 Australia is an island — a very large one. It is set not simply in sea but by whole oceans on three sides. A complex nation of blending cultures, Australia has developed its notion of nation from a British colonial toehold on the Pacific. Among several discernible flag families, and as shown by the 15 in Figure 1, blue seems to be the colour of the Pacific.

  • Flagging Indifference - Emblems of the Adelaide and Barossa Germans in South Australia 1838-1972 - Symbols of Authentic Patriotism and Citizenship
    Tony Burton: Flagging Indifference - Emblems of the Adelaide and Barossa Germans in South Australia 1838-1972 - Symbols of Authentic Patriotism and Citizenship Abstract: Against a contemporary background of rising national tribalism and an associated waving of flags, little known outside Australia is the story’ of the German settlers of South Australia. Hardworking and sober Lutherans were among the first to establish themselves in the fledgling British colony, on the Adelaide plain, in the hills behind the city and then to establish farms and vineyards in the Barossa Valley to the north. Their compatriots who followed built on their reputation for reliability, and attained prominence in South Australian society, to include deputies elected to the colonial Parliament. The legacy of this multi-faceted community is their major and gemiitliche contribution to South Australian .society, economy and tourism. This paper examines the range and e.xtent of symbols of cultural identity usually associated with flag display, as this significant community integrated within the larger society, and was later shunned by it. Particular reference is made to the State emblem approved in 1904 and its possible connection to German influence. As a measure of practical and informative ve.xillology’. the relevance to the contemporary world of this kind of flag use is touched upon. The German pioneer community provided a model of unobtrusive and adaptive patriotism, their allegiance and proper use of flags in contrast to the xenophobia brought against them long after their arrival and, though now directed to other more recent immigrants, resurgent in Australia. Cover: Emblems of Prussia and South Australia together with an abstract painting in the Hans Heysen Centre at Hahndorf, evoking the peeling bark of the gum trees Heysen loved to paint, and in the combined German colors of black, red and gold and black white and red.

  • The Commonwealth Coat of Arms
    The Commonwealth Coat of Arms The Commonwealth Coat of Arms is the formal symbol of the Commonwealth of Australia. It is used to identify the authority and property of the Australian Government, the Australian Parliament and Commonwealth courts. For example, it appears on the cover of Australian passports, government buildings and some 50 cent coins. The first Commonwealth Coat of Arms was introduced on 7 May 1908. The second was introduced on 19 September 1912 and is still used today. The Commonwealth Coat of Arms contains a shield with the symbols of the six Australian states. These symbols are enclosed in a border to represent federation in 1901, when the states united to form a nation. The shield is held by two native Australian animals, a kangaroo to the left and an emu to the right. The gold Commonwealth Star above the shield has seven points. One point represents each of the six states and the seventh point represents all the territories. There is a scroll displaying the word 'Australia' beneath the shield. The national floral emblem, golden wattle, forms the background. © MAPPEN https://getmappen.com National Colours The national colours of Australia are green and gold. These colours have strong environmental connections. Gold represents Australia’s beaches, minerals that are found in the ground, grain such as wheat and the fleece of Australian wool. Green represents the forests, eucalyptus trees and pastures of the Australian landscape. Green and gold are also the colours of Australia’s national floral emblem – the golden wattle. Since the late 1800s, green and gold have been Australia’s national sporting colours.
