  • Agnes Macready and Bella Guerin
    Agnes Macready Born in 1855 at Rathfriland, County Down, Agnes Macready was the eldest of five children of Presbyterian minister, Reverend Henry Macready, and his wife Jane. In 1867, when Agnes was 12, the family emigrated to Australia. As an adult, Agnes converted to Catholicism, a move described by the Methodist newspaper in these terms: ‘[S]he wandered from green pastures of truth into the enchanted ground of Popery, and is ardent as perverts usually are’. A manifestation of her alleged perverted ardour for popery was her contribution from 1898 of literary sketches and verse to the Sydney Irish-Catholic newspaper the Catholic Press for whom she wrote under the name ‘Arrah Luen’. In 1880 Agnes had commenced training as a nurse at Sydney’s Prince Alfred Hospital, after which she worked at Melbourne Hospital before being appointed matron of Bowral Hospital in New South Wales. When war broke out in South Africa in 1899 Macready volunteered to serve as a nurse. But her request was denied. Undeterred, she paid her own passage to Durban and was the first nurse from Australia to arrive there. But not only was she the first Australian nurse at the Boer War, she also became Australia’s first-ever female war correspondent. Having been commissioned by the Catholic Press to send back reports on the war, she wrote that she saw the war ‘with a woman’s eyes’. Women war correspondents would later challenge the idea that they should cover war only from the so-called ‘woman’s angle’. But, unlike her male counterparts, Agnes was not permitted to visit the front.

  • What Price Loyalty? Australian Catholics in the First World
    What price loyalty? Australian Catholics in the First World War Jeff Kildea* Prelude I am grateful to the Catholic Theological College for inviting me to give the Cardinal Knox lecture for 2018, the centenary year of the end of the First World War, and to reflect on the way the Catholic Church in Australia related to and was affected by that war, a war that began in the same year that Cardinal Knox, in whose honour we meet tonight, was born. The subject brings together three intertwined strands of historical research which have fascinated me for a very long time: the First World War, the Catholic Church and Ireland. In fact I first acquired my interest in primary school at St Anne’s, Bondi Beach in the 1950s when I read a book called Fighting Father Duffy.1 Some of you may remember it. The book tells the story of a Catholic chaplain of Irish descent during the First World War serving in a unit originally known as the 69th New York Infantry Regiment, the ‘Fighting Irish’. And, here I am 60 years later, still trying to make sense of the entangled history of the First World War, the Catholic Church and Ireland When I told a friend I was to give a lecture on the Catholic Church in Australia during the First World War, he asked me how many days I had been allotted. And, of course, to cover a subject as profound as this would take days, if not weeks. But tonight I have only 50 minutes and so my talk will be only a cursory overview.

Over that period many writers have both celebrated the achievement of a hard fought battle and deplored the slowness of universities to respond to women's needs. Recently feminist historians have begun to re-examine that experience and to place it in the context of broader social change, seeing within that debate an opportunity to contribute to wider historical questions' This study seeks to reassess the meaning of higher education for women in the context of the demographic transition. Using a basic structuring framework of feminist history, it examines the outcome of the experience of higher education for a group of the earliest graduates of the University of Adelaide. Women's admission to the University of Adetaide is described and it is argued that the ready acceptance of women from the earliest days was due to the particular nature of South Australian society, one characterized by a vigorous middle class and a dissenting religious tradition.
