  • Long Distance Travel in Canoes, Kayaks, Rowboats and Rafts on the Rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin from 1817 to 2012
    Long Distance Travel in Canoes, Kayaks, Rowboats and Rafts on the Rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin from 1817 to 2012 by Angela BREMERS This thesis is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication (Research) of the University of Canberra June 2017 i Abstract From 1817 to 2012, paddling and rowing on the rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin played a crucial role in the region’s exploration, commerce and recreation. This thesis exposes the cultural and historical significance of journeys in human-powered craft during this period. Despite its underlying historical and cultural significance, the history of these journeys is little known and little understood. This is despite journeys by famous explorers such as Captain Charles Sturt who used rowboats on two expeditions, most notably on his 1830 expedition on the Murrumbidgee and Murray rivers. His Murray journey is well commemorated, but two earlier journeys by Surveyor-General John Oxley’s expedition are not as widely known. Those four voyages, as well as three expeditions led by Major Thomas Mitchell were instrumental in solving the mystery of the inland rivers and expanding colonial settlement (Shaw ed., 1984, pp.217, 221, 599). Following European expansion, journeys by Captain Francis Cadell and a voyage by Lieutenant-Governor of South Australia Sir Henry Edward Fox Young, determined the navigability of the Murray for paddle steamers. Until the additional linking of the railways into the basin during the 1870s and 1880s, paddle steamers provided the most efficient and reliable transport for farmers and settlers, and boosted the regional economy (Lewis, 1917, p.47; Phillips, 1972, p.50; Richmond, c.1980, p.17).

  • Aufprall Translation Impact We Have Written This Book As a Trio Because
    Aufprall Translation Impact We have written this book as a trio because the era which we refer to is one where things changed. Gender roles, social and racial backgrounds, perceptions, feelings, thinking and art developed new forms. This was not only true for people like us who were then in our twenties, but for the entirety of the 1980s world into which we grew up. This novel is narrated by three voices. There is the feminine voice of a chorus which tells the story of a group of rebellious young people in West Berlin. Then there are the male and female voices of two members of the group, who are bound together by the common experience of a fateful event. Nothing here is the product of our imagination. Not the events, nor the place. It is only the characters in this performance who are hybrids, pieced together from the personalities of a wider cast. The fiction is true and the facts will confirm it. History in the Making January 1981 We came from the socialist blocks of Vienna, Hamburg’s suburbs, terraced houses in southern Germany, mining towns in the Ruhrgebiet, bungalows in Lower Saxony, professorial houses in Heidelberg, idyllic Berlin suburbs, pubs on the edge of West Germany, farmyards in the Bergisches Land, the lower middle-class oases of Oldenburg, Bavarian villages, Franconian hamlets, and small towns in the Saarland. We came together and one moonless night, we occupied a building. Ten inches of snow had fallen the day before but we did not allow this to alter our plans.

DESCRIPTORS Acting; Class Activities; *Drama; Dramatic Play; *Dramatics; Elementary Secondary Education; Playwriting; Skits IDENTIFIERS *Childrens Theater; Improvisation ABSTRACT Intended for teachers who have no particular experience or training in teaching theater, but who have a love of theater and enjoy a good play, this book discusses making theater with children. It explores improvisation, reading and acting with scripts, adapting plays for young actors, and writing plays. The examples presented in the text are appropriate for a wide range of ages (from 5-year-olds to teenagers) and most can be modified to suit students of almost any age. Following an introduction discussing the power of illusion, chapter 1 deals with preparing to do theater. Chapter 2 deals with developing a performance; chapter 3 covers monologues and dialogues. Adapting plays for performance is the topic of chapter 4, and chapter 5 contains some concluding thoughts. Two appendixes contain scripts for two plays developed by the author and his classes: "The Four Alices and Their Sister Susie in Wonderland," and "Antigone." Selected resources are listed on the theory and practice of doing plays, sources for scenes, and Shakespeare.
