  • Living in the Shadow of the Freud Family | London: Praeger, 2007. 465 Sider
    I skyggen av Freud Sophie Freud | Living in the Shadow of the Freud family | London: Praeger, 2007. 465 sider PUBLISERT 7. februar 2009 Ernestine («Esti») Freud (nee Drucker) (1896-1980) var gift med Sigmund Freuds sønn Jean Martin i et kort og stormfullt ekteskap. Hun hadde den tvilsomme æren av å være den Freud likte absolutt dårligst av sine sønners og døtres ektefeller. Freud omtaler henne slik til sin andre sønn Ernst i et brev som først ble offentliggjort i 1992, tolv år etter Ernestine Freuds død: «She is not only maliciously meschugge but also mad in the medical sense» (s. 187). Ernestine gjorde det meste ut av sin assosiasjon med Freud-familien når hun hadde karrieremessig nytte av det, men omtaler Freud-familien i mange sammenhenger i de verst tenkelige språklige vendinger. På slutten av sitt liv skrev hun en upublisert selvbiografi, Vignettes of my life, som hun sendte til sine to barn og seks barnebarn. Denne oppsummeringen av livet gav hennes alderdom mening. En slik funksjon har den også for hennes datter Sophie Freud (f. 1924), som benytter Ernestine Freuds selvbiografi som utgangspunkt for sine egne retrospektive refleksjoner. Vi får Ernestine Freuds selvbiografi supplert med datterens kommentarer og utdrag fra hennes egen dagbok. I tillegg har Sophie Freud innhentet kommentarer fra andre slektninger, og gjengir brev fra slektninger, bekjente og venner. Svak empiri Dersom man primært kjøper denne boken for det Freud-relevante stoffet, bør man stusse litt. Ernestine Drucker og Jean Martin Freud giftet seg i 1919 etter et kort bekjentskap. Siden det var et gjensidig fiendskap mellom Ernestine og Freud-familien, deltok hun sjelden på de faste helgebesøkene hos Freud.

  • War and Peace: 200 Years of Australian-German Artistic Relations
    Rex Butler & A.D.S. Donaldson, War and Peace: 200 years of Australian-German Artistic Relations REX BUTLER & A.D.S. DONALDSON War and Peace: 200 Years of Australian-German Artistic Relations The guns were barely silent on the Western Front when on 23 November 1918 Belgian-born Henri Verbrugghen took to the stage of the recently established NSW Conservatorium and softly tapped his baton, bringing the audience to silence. Then into this silence Verbrugghen called down the immortal opening chords of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, the ‘Choral’, with its celebrated fourth movement ‘Ode to Joy’, based on Schiller’s words. A difficult piece to stage because of the considerable orchestral forces required, the performance was nevertheless a triumph, and all the more so for the occasion it marked, the Allied victory over Germany. Due to the long lead time and the necessity for extensive rehearsal, its being played at the signing of peace was a coincidence, but nevertheless a very serendipitous one. And the point was not lost on the critic for the Sydney Morning Herald, who in their review wrote: The armistice and the blessings of peace were not in sight when the program of the Conservatorium Orchestra on Saturday afternoon was projected, but by an extraordinary coincidence the inclusion of Beethoven’s ‘Choral Symphony’ with the Ode to ‘Joy, thou spark from Heaven descending’, brought the whole body of players and singers into line for the celebration of the glorious Allied victory.1 The real coincidence here was perhaps not the fortuitous programming of Beethoven at the moment of the signing of the Treaty at Versailles, but that of Germany and Australia itself.

  • The Dunera Boys by Roy Wilcock
    ‘The Dunera Boys’ ‘Friends and enemies’ A Quaker response to the treatment of WWII internees ‘The Dunera Boys’ - a story for the Australian Quaker Tapestry Project Preface The ’Dunera Boys’ Australian Quaker Tapestry panel is currently being stitched in Kendal, Cumbria, UK. It will become a visual snap-shot, a simple representation of a little reported WWII scandal. This booklet is intended to fill in the background information for the embroiderers, to assist and encourage those currently working on the panel. Hopefully it will provide useful information for volunteer stewards involved in any future public exhibiting of the panel in Australia. It is not intended that this transcript be reproduced commercially. Though not a professional historian or journalist the writer has attempted to let previously published facts speak for themselves. These may contain some inaccuracies due to the lack of official embargoed documentation. It is hoped that future release of information by the British Government will mitigate any errors or omissions contained within this booklet. Source material is listed at the end of the document and it is recommended that Cyril Pearl’s book offers a fascinating source for further reading should additional information be required. This short synopsis of events is dedicated to the lives of the Dunera Boys, only a few are still surviving as this booklet is being written. Roy Wilcock, researcher and writer Introduction Bridget Guest is the Manager of the Quaker Tapestry in the Lake District town of Kendal in Cumbria, UK. She and her partner Roy Wilcock (the writer of this article) visited Australia in April 2007.
