    WOMEN IN COLONIAL COMMERCE 1817-1820: THE WINDOW OF UNDERSTANDING PROVIDED BY THE BANK OF NEW SOUTH WALES LEDGER AND MINUTE BOOKS Leanne Johns A thesis presented for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the Australian National University, Canberra August 2001 DECLARATION I certify that this thesis is my own work. To the best of my knowledge and belief it does not contain any material previously published or written by another person where due reference is not made in the text. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I acknowledge a huge debt of gratitude to my principal supervisor, Professor Russell Craig, for his inspiration and encouragement throughout the writing of this thesis. He gave insightful and expert advice, reassurance when I needed it most, and above all, never lost faith in me. Few supervisors can have been so generous with their time and so unfailing in their support. I also thank sincerely Professor Simon Ville and Dr. Sarah Jenkins for their measured and sage advice. It always came at the right point in the thesis and often helped me through a difficult patch. Westpac Historical Services archivists were extremely positive and supportive of my task. I am grateful to them for the assistance they so generously gave and for allowing me to peruse and handle their priceless treasures. This thesis would not have been possible without their cooperation. To my family, who were ever enthusiastic about my project and who always encouraged and championed me, I offer my thanks and my love. Finally, this thesis is dedicated to the thousands of colonial women who endured privations, sufferings and loneliness with indomitable courage.

Back Cover: Bronze cliché (one sided) medal showing Napoleon as First Consul surrounded by flags and weapons over a scene of the Battle of Marengo. The artist is Bertrand Andrieu (1761-1822), who was commissioned to do a very large number of medallions and other work of art in metal. It is dated the year X (1802), two years after the battle (1800). Both pieces are from the David Markham Collection.

  • Issue 30, October 2003
    Issue 30, October 2003 A Review of German Anzacs and the First World War by John F. Williams by John Milfull © all rights reserved. The great German writer Anna Seghers who, after surviving exile in Mexico during the Third Reich, threw in her lot with the doomed GDR, defined the role of literature in a way that always struck me as being equally appropriate to the kind of history I most value – to preserve the aspirations, joys and sufferings of the nameless victims of history as their legacy to a better future. This is the kind of history John Williams writes, and I admire it enormously. Against a panorama of the social and military history of Australian participation in WWI, laid out with authoritative sweep and competence, he zooms in, fine photographer that he is, on the unexpected details and life stories others miss or neglect. In this case the focus is the paradoxical situation of German Australians who fought on the Aussie side against their former compatriots. They range from country boys right up to John Monash, the brilliant general who had to contend with the double stigmata of German and Jewish origins. There were many of them –- they enlisted not always out of patriotic fervour, but certainly with a deep conviction of their right to be counted as Australians, however hostile the public mood became. This was especially true after the subsidised mass distribution of the infamous Bryce report on German atrocities in Belgium. As a foil to his “German Anzacs”, Williams tells the remarkable story of Ekkehard Beinssen, who grew up in Hunters Hill only to end up fighting on the German side and finally abandoning strife-torn Weimar Germany to return to the country of his birth.

Some French authorities and later French navigators believed that Saint-Aloüarn’s claim was valid under prescriptive law, yet this law is only valid if the land claimed is settled within a time frame of thirty years.

  • The Cultural Impact of Science in the Early Twentieth Century
    In the early decades of the twentieth century, engagement with science was commonly used as an emblem of modernity. This phenomenon is now attracting increasing attention in different historical specialties. Being Modern builds on this recent scholarly interest to explore engagement with science across culture from the end of the nineteenth century to approximately 1940. Addressing the breadth of cultural forms in Britain and the western world from the architecture of Le Corbusier to working class British science fiction, Being Modern paints a rich picture. Seventeen distinguished contributors from a range of fields including the cultural study of science and technology, art and architecture, English The Cultural Impact of culture and literature examine the issues involved. The book will be a valuable resource for students, and a spur to scholars to further examination of culture as an Science in the Early interconnected web of which science is a critical part, and to supersede such tired formulations as ‘Science and culture’.

  • Profile of Shipping Investment
    SECTION THREE: Profile of Shipping Investment CHAPTER 6: THE PROFILE OF EARLY SHIP INVESTORS, 1810-1825 This section examines the occupational profile of shipping investors in NSW from 1810-1850, with the aim of identifying those participants, and their motivation for investment. To date, no comparable investigation appears to have been undertaken for NSW shipowners. Several studies, those of Sarah Palmer and R.G. Albion, of shipowners in London and New York respectively provide both templates and sources for comparing the pattern of ship investment in countries at different stages of development.1 Our early maritime history prompts a reminder that Australian development needs to be seen in its global context. While identifying some of the opportunities open to the local maritime industry, I argue that the nature of local shipping activity was qualitatively different from that of Great Britain, being more speculative or opportunistic in character. The business of ship ownership was so fraught with risk that it raises the dual questions of what motivated local investors to undertake such speculation, and who were these investors. I suggest that entrepreneurial activity, rather than investment in shipping per se provided social as well as business leverage. I will show that the pattern of ship investment among occupational groups in NSW differed in some remarkable aspects to that of London during the same period. There were some wild fluctuations in the numbers investing, in the total of shipping registered, and in the occupational groups investing in shipping. This section will also examine in closer detail the specific characteristics of the major investors, mariners and merchants, the opportunities that made investment shipping attractive and the dynamics of that investment.
