First Plenary Council of Australasia, 14-29 November 1885 – Part 1
First Plenary Council of Australasia, 14-29 November 1885 – Part 1 First Published in The Swag, Vol. 26, No. 2, Winter 2018, pp. 8-12, republished with permission by Catholics For Renewal 8 June 2018 This is the fourth in a seriesof articles looking at the particular (provincial and plenary) councils of the Catholic Church held in Australia between 1844 and 1937. It examines, in 2 Parts, the 1885 First Australasian Plenary Council which officially brought together the Churches in Australia and New Zealand for the first time. Part 2 will appear in the Spring 2018 edition. In the period 1870-1885 fourteen particular councils were held in English-speaking mission territories across the world: 3 in Canada, 1 in England, 1 in Ireland, 8 in the USA and 1 in Australasia. The 1875 Maynooth Plenary in Ireland would significantly influence the Australasian council. Developments and preparations Between 1869 and 1885 three new dioceses were established in Australia - Ballarat (1874), Sandhurst (1874) and Rockhampton (1882) – as well as the Vicariate Apostolic of Queensland (1877)). In 1874 Melbourne became an Archdiocese and Metropolitan See for the new Province of Melbourne which in 1885 had 5 suffragan sees: Hobart, Perth, Adelaide, Ballarat and Sandhurst. Councils representing all the churches of Australia would now have to be ‘plenary’, not ‘provincial’. The 1869 Provincial Council had made no plans for a follow-up, but in 1882 Archbishop Vaughan sought permission to convoke a provincial council for Sydney. The Sacred Congregation de Propaganda Fide (‘Propaganda’) was supportive, but urged him to plan carefully and make use of the 1st Vatican Council (1869-1870) and the councils of Westminster, Baltimore and Québec. -

Religion and Diaspora: Community Creation in Nineteenth-Century New Zealand, the Case of Antoine Garin and the Catholics of Howick and Nelson
Religion and Diaspora: Community Creation in Nineteenth-Century New Zealand, the Case of Antoine Garin and the Catholics of Howick and Nelson GISELLE LarcOMBE Antoine Marie Garin was a Catholic missionary who lived in New Zealand from 1841 until 1889. A member of the Society of Mary, the society to which the Pope had given the task of evangelizing Western Oceania in 1835,1 Garin worked for seven years with Maori in the Bay of Islands and Mangakahia, Northland, before beginning a lengthy career as a parish priest to the settlers of Howick and Nelson. He is best known for his contribution to Catholic education while parish priest of Nelson.2 The records kept by Marist missionaries like Garin are fascinating for the way in which they provide an often-overlooked perspective on nineteenth- century New Zealand. As neither ‘colonizing’ British settlers, nor ‘colonized’ Maori, the Marists were in a special position to witness and describe events from their own unique, French viewpoint. Garin’s records from his time as parish priest of Howick and Nelson are particularly valuable for their ability to challenge Miles Fairburn’s thesis on the atomism of nineteenth-century New Zealand society. As Fairburn notes, nineteenth-century New Zealand migrants had to struggle with atomism: the breaking of ties to family, friends and community that occurred upon migration to such a distant part of the world. With specific reference to religion, Fairburn’s thesis paints the nineteenth-century churches as poorly-attended and socially marginal. At a general level, it depicts colonial New Zealand as being gravely deficient in its social organization.3 An analysis of Garin’s manuscripts, however, shows the extent to which differences of religion, as of ethnicity, could be sources of colonial community. -

Irish Catholic Immigrants in Nineteenty-Century Christchurch
COMMUNITY, CONTINUITY AND CHANGE: IRISH CA THOUC IMMIGRANTS IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY CHRISTCHURCH A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Canterbury by Lyndon A. Fraser -;; University of Canterbury 1993 ABSTRACT (~ 1/ This thesis explores the historical processes of becoming in the everyday social lives of Irish Catholic immigrants in nineteenth-century Christchurch. My central argument is that these newcomers effected a transition to colonial life by creating and sustaining durable'social networks based on ethnic ties which transcended pre-existing affiliations and represented a powerful means to appropriate a new environment. In my introduction, I argue that our limited understanding of settler society has legitimated cultural silences which marginalise the pluralistic experiences of immigrants in nineteenth-century immigrants New Zealand. Chapter One examines the process of migration and the interpersonal networks on which the vast majority of Irish Catholics were reliant for assistance both in moving to and settling in the city and its environs. Chapter Two charts the development of ethnic consciousness among the newcomers, while Chapter Three explores the question of transience and attempts to refute the view that itinerancy and a lack of associative bonds conspired to stunt the emergence of ethnic social relations. Paralleling this line of argument, Chapter Four focuses on the social topography of settlement and uses a variety of sources to demonstrate how newcomers expressed their ethnicity spatially within the city through a process of residential bonding. By contrast, Chapter Five deals with the vexing question of social mobility and seeks to establish whether the popular stereotype of the downtrodden Irish is relevant or applicable to those immigrants who settled in Christchurch. -

Inevitably Make the Reader Wonder Whether He Is Resurrecting These Women to Free Them, Or to Continue Their Role As Exotic Captives
126 New Zealand Journal of History, 39, 1 (2005) inevitably make the reader wonder whether he is resurrecting these women to free them, or to continue their role as exotic captives. The question of Bentley’s motives raises itself early in the book. Take for example his description of Badger: ‘With her fair hair and white skin she must have ranked among the most famous of the exotic curiosities’ (p.33). But, though he is cautious about romanticizing Badger’s life amongst Maori, within the very same paragraph Bentley, on an unknown basis, describes Badger as possessing ‘loose hair, tanned skin, bare feet, [and] Maori adornments’ (p.37). On the same page, Maori rangatira ‘preferred monogamy’, so Charlotte ‘may’ have lived in a superior carved house and enjoyed a better position than commoner Maori. But just three pages earlier, Bentley claims rangatira in general were polygamous, commonly with a number of captive slave wives possessing no status (and presumably no adornments) (p.34). In the conclusion to the book, Bentley argues, again presumably on the basis of ‘informed speculation’, that it is possible ‘the quality of the cross-cultural relationships between the white women and their male protector husbands was far better than what the women had previously experienced with their European husbands’ (pp.240–1). With statements like this, the reader cannot avoid reaching the conclusion that Bentley is straying from the realms of historical research and analysis and into the world of romantic fiction. This world in fact reinforces the role of these women as captured exotics (whether in reality or in the narratives) rather than as having their own agency and making their own choices. -
