  • Hullo Marmaduke
    HULLO MARMADUKE Year of release: 1924 • Scenario: Beaumont Smith Initially scripted under the working title, The King of Australia,1 Hullo Marmaduke is the story of a naive young remittance man and his adventures in Australia. It was the first of two moving pictures to star English variety comedian Claude Dampier during his second lengthy visit to the Australasian region, the other being The Adventures of Algy (1925). Both films were written, directed and produced by Beaumont Smith. Dampier was given leave of absence from his contract with Fullers' Theatres to take part in shooting, as was Jimmy Taylor, then a member of Dampier's revue company. Another prominent Australian-based vaudeville performer to appear in the film was Cyril Northcote. Hullo Marmaduke is now considered a lost film. The youngest son of a noble English family, Marmaduke is sent out to Australia on the R.M.S. Osterley with his faithful valet Huggett. At Fremantle he is swindled by two card sharps out of most of his money. With his remaining money he travels to Adelaide and then the gold fields where he hopes to make his fortune. On the voyage he meets up with Mrs Mary Morton, a barmaid, and her young daughter Margie who are searching for their husband and father, Mike Morton. Mary is later killed during a burglary, however. Complicating matters is the fact that one of the men is Mary's husband. With her dying breath she asks Maramduke to look after her daughter. Faced with this new responsibility he goes on to make his fortune as a prospector and lavishes money on his ward.

  • CONCLUSION This Literary Study and Close Account of Her Social
    224 CONCLUSION This literary study and close account of her social philosophy has demonstrated that the novelist, Eleanor Dark, was also a vigorous social protester and moralist, both concerned with pressing contemporary problems and with their psychological origins, and bent on showing in her fiction a close connection between political forces and individual lives. It has been made clear in this critical treatment .:hat, with a romantics revolutionary turn of mind, she was determined to open her readers eyes to so many social injustices. These were all too often perpetrated by mediocre leaders, and yet the people, in their ignorance and apathy, were hardly aware of them. To illustrate this she created a series of idealistic, independently thinking characters who set out to right social wrongs by exercising heroic personal integrity, by being true to their own consciences, and by establishing ideals which would enrich, rather than constrict, both the individual and society as a whole. The study has shown, however, that Dark always emphasised the need to put theory into action, and to curb simplistic idealism with a measure of lived practicality. There was presented in Chapter 2 the writers perception of human existence as a progression or journey, with her questing protagonists energetically engaging with all aspects of life as they struggled toward the goal of social harmony and the desired realisation of personal potential. Throughout, there has been critical emphasis upon the novels impressive celebration of life, and I have endeavoured to show that the vitality of Darks daring protagonists became a means of judging the behaviour of others, as she contrasted them with those lesser and more timid characters who refused Ito participate willingly in the mortal contest.

  • Adam Lindsay Gordon - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Adam Lindsay Gordon - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Adam Lindsay Gordon(19 October 1833 – 24 June 1870) Gordon was born at Fayal in the Azores, son of Captain Adam Durnford Gordon who had married his first cousin, Harriet Gordon, both of whom were descended from Adam of Gordon of the ballad. Captain Gordon, who had retired from the Bengal cavalry and taught Hindustani, was then staying at the Azores for the sake of his wife's health. After living on the island of Madeira, they went to England and lived at Cheltenham in 1840. Gordon was sent to Cheltenham College in 1841 when he was only seven, but after he had been there a year he was sent to a school kept by the Rev. Samuel Ollis Garrard in Gloucestershire. He attended the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich in 1848, where he was a contemporary and friend of Charles George Gordon (no relation, later 'Gordon of Khartoum') and Thomas Bland Strange (later known as 'Gunner Jingo'). There Gordon appears to have been good at sports, but not studious and certainly undisciplined – and like Richard Henry Horne, he was asked to leave. Gordon was again admitted a pupil at Cheltenham College. He was not there for long – he appears to have left in the middle of 1852 – but the story that he was expelled from Cheltenham is without foundation. Then Gordon was sent to the Royal Grammar School Worcester in 1852. Gordon began to lead a wild and aimless life, contracted debts, and was a great anxiety to his father, who at last decided that his son should go to Australia and make a fresh start in 1853 to join the mounted police with a letter of introduction to the Governor.

  • An Analysis of Food and Its Significance in the Australian Novels of Christina Stead, P
    F.O.O.D. (Fighting Order Over Disorder): An Analysis of Food and Its Significance in the Australian Novels of Christina Stead, Patrick White and Thea Astley. Jane Frugtneit A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Humanities James Cook University August 2007 ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to find a correlation between food as symbol and food as necessity, as represented in selected Australian novels by Christina Stead, Patrick White and Thea Astley. Food as a springboard to a unique interpretation of the selected novels has been under-utilised in academic research. Although comparatively few novels were selected for study, on the basis of fastidiousness, they facilitated a rigorous hermeneutical approach to the interpretation of food and its inherent symbolism. The principle behind the selection of these novels lies in the complexity of the prose and how that complexity elicits the “transformative powers of food” (Muncaster 1996, 31). The thesis examines both the literal and metaphorical representations of food in the novels and relates how food is an inextricable part of ALL aspects of life, both actual and fictional. Food sustains, nourishes and, intellectually, its many components offer unique interpretative tools for textual analysis. Indeed, the overarching structure of the thesis is analogous with the processes of eating, digestion and defecation. For example, following a discussion of the inextricable link between food, quest and freedom in Chapter One, which uncovers contrary attitudes towards food in the novels discussed, the thesis presents a more complex psychoanalytic theory of mental disorders related to food in Chapter Two.

  • Chapter 3 Good Mother, Bad Mother and the Changing Boundaries
    1 chapter 3 good mother, bad mother and the changing boundaries The mothering of a child is not something that can be arranged by rota; it is a live human relationship which alters the characters of both partners.1 Traditionally, the good mother has been associated with self-sacrifice. An extract from a Catholic education course on marriage in 1958 illustrates the point: To successfully fulfil her vocation of motherhood, the woman should possess great qualities of heart. Her entire life should be devoted to procuring happiness for those around her…It is natural for her to be devoted.2 This view of motherhood assigns women to a subservient position. It does not take into account the changing structure of the family, and instead, creates an environment which reinforces the belief that the mother's place is within the home, and primarily concerned with raising the children. The restrictive maternal role is endorsed in part by images in films which have the capacity to both reflect and influence ways of thinking. This chapter considers the representation of the mother in Australian feature films to decipher the way in which the narrative characterises good and bad maternal behaviour. The introductory chapter of this research contained a broad overview of historical events which were significant for the maternal role. The present chapter, in its first section, deals in more detail with those aspects which relate directly to expectations of good mothering. The second section of the chapter examines the way the mother is depicted in films. The designation of her as either a good or bad mother can be determined by her demeanour, the attitude of others towards her and, perhaps, above all, by her treatment in the narrative in terms of penalties or benefits reaped by her behaviour.

  • The Genesis of Thea Astley's the Multiple Effects of Rainshadow
    The Genesis of Thea Astley’s The Multiple Effects of Rainshadow CHERYL TAYLOR JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY My purpose in this essay, which extends a project commenced a decade ago (Taylor 2009), is to analyse the sources of Thea Astley’s The Multiple Effects of Rainshadow, including but going beyond the list provided in the author’s ‘Acknowledgments.’ In truth, Astley’s achievement in Multiple Effects as in her other fiction far surpasses the sum of contributions that she derived from earlier writings. The mostly forgotten books that she lists as ‘[i]mpulses’ and her bequest to the Fryer Library of her newspaper sources and hand-written notes suggest that she may have welcomed a study of this novel’s genesis. The essay begins with an overview of the place of Multiple Effects in Astley’s oeuvre and the literary and political contexts for Astley’s increasing engagement with the history of Aboriginal dispossession. It then turns in detail to the novel itself and offers an excavation of the sources that inform its historical narrative. In doing this I hope to demonstrate something about Astley’s creative process: the extent and detail of her research, the ways in which her novel creatively reworks this archive, and some of the effects of that on the kind of history that Astley tells. Following the publication in 1994 of Coda, intended as the title indicates to be Astley’s last novel, the Keating Labor government awarded her a five-year Creative Fellowship of $325,000. Thus encouraged, after ‘one year of musing and two years of writing’ (Sayer 18) at Cambewarra on the NSW south coast, Astley published Multiple Effects in August 1996.
