  • The Architecture of Scientific Sydney
    Journal and Proceedings of The Royal Society of New South Wales Volume 118 Parts 3 and 4 [Issued March, 1986] pp.181-193 Return to CONTENTS The Architecture of Scientific Sydney Joan Kerr [Paper given at the “Scientific Sydney” Seminar on 18 May, 1985, at History House, Macquarie St., Sydney.] A special building for pure science in Sydney certainly preceded any building for the arts – or even for religious worship – if we allow that Lieutenant William Dawes‟ observatory erected in 1788, a special building and that its purpose was pure science.[1] As might be expected, being erected in the first year of European settlement it was not a particularly impressive edifice. It was made of wood and canvas and consisted of an octagonal quadrant room with a white conical canvas revolving roof nailed to poles containing a shutter for Dawes‟ telescope. The adjacent wooden building, which served as accommodation for Dawes when he stayed there overnight to make evening observations, was used to store the rest of the instruments. It also had a shutter in the roof. A tent-observatory was a common portable building for eighteenth century scientific travellers; indeed, the English portable observatory Dawes was known to have used at Rio on the First Fleet voyage that brought him to Sydney was probably cannibalised for this primitive pioneer structure. The location of Dawes‟ observatory on the firm rock bed at the northern end of Sydney Cove was more impressive. It is now called Dawes Point after our pioneer scientist, but Dawes himself more properly called it „Point Maskelyne‟, after the Astronomer Royal.

Tasmania . 170 Chapter 1: Introduction In Australia there are four Catholic cathedrals designed in the Romanesque style (Canberra, Newcastle, Port Pirie and Geraldton) and one Anglican cathedral (Parramatta). These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.

  • The Anglo-Catholic Tradition in Australian Anglicanism Dr David
    The Anglo-Catholic Tradition in Australian Anglicanism Dr David Hilliard Reader in History, Flinders University Adelaide, Australia Anglicanism in Australia has had many Anglo-Catholics but no single version of Anglo-Catholicism.1 Anglo-Catholics have comprised neither a church nor a sect, nor have they been a tightly organised party. Within a framework of common ideas about the apostolic succession, the sacraments and the central role of ‘the Church’ in mediating salvation, they were, and remain, diverse in outlook, with few organs or institutions to link them together and to promote common goals. Since the mid-nineteenth century, in Australia as in England, two very different trends in the movement can be identified. There were Anglo- Catholics who were primarily concerned with personal religion and the relationship of the individual soul to God, and those, influenced by Incarnational theology, who were concerned to draw out the implications of the Catholic 1 Published works on Anglo-Catholicism in Australia include: Brian Porter (ed.), Colonial Tractarians: The Oxford Movement in Australia (Melbourne, 1989); Austin Cooper, ‘Newman—The Oxford Movement—Australia’, in B.J.

The next day all crews struggled for consistency but the following morning, after a good result, Evan and Kyle were one point ahead of rivals France and Great Britain.

  • A History of York Street Anglican
    A HISTORY OF YORK STREET ANGLICAN The Historic Perspective As the original Parish Church of the City of Sydney, St. Philip’s York Street Anglican has seen the city grow from an English penal settlement into the vibrant, bustling city it is today. For over two centuries those who have been part of the community at St Philip's have witnessed incredible change. Not only has the face of the city altered – its buildings, its means of transport, its streets and thoroughfares – but also its people, and their ways. One only has to read of the ministry of the parish when meeting the needs of a penal colony; its links to the beginnings of the education system; its early work with aborigines and its role in the establishment of law and representative government in New South Wales. St Philip’s was there during the gold rush, the depression of the 1890s, the Boer War, and at Federation. The Parish saw her sons march off to war in 1914 and again in 1939. She buried her parishioners during the great influenza pandemic that followed the First World War. The schools established by St Philip’s have educated the city’s young. St. Philip’s also watched as people moved out of the city and into the suburbs only to visit the city as workers in the office blocks and to shop. Now the church is in its third century of ministry the role is changing again. People are returning to the city to live. Where offices stood, now we see apartments.
