There were three clearly defined phases of these wars, so it is separated into those phases. The Wairau Affray, near Nelson in 1843, was the first violent clash to take place between Māori and Pākehā after the Treaty of Waitangi. The Northern War – sometimes known as Heke’s War – was in the Bay of Islands during 1845 and 1846. The next round of fighting occurred in the Wellington and Whanganui districts in 1846 and 1847. Māori fought on both sides of the various campaigns – those fighting alongside the British were known as kūpapa. For a helpful overview of the wars, including a timeline, see the Ministry of Culture and Heritage’s history website at http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/war‐and‐society Material relating to the wars appears on the catalogues under a variety of subject headings, for example, New Zealand – History – New Zealand Wars, 1843‐1847 Maori (New Zealand people) – Wars Hone Heke’s Rebellion, N.Z., 1844‐1846 Great Britain. Army Individual battles are catalogued by name, for example, Boulcott’s Farm, Battle of, Hutt (N.Z.), 1846 Check also under the names of individual regions or people, for example, Wanganui (N.Z.) – History Heke, Hone, ca. 1810‐1850 5 General sources James Belich, The New Zealand Wars and the Victorian Interpretation of Racial Conflict (Auckland: Auckland University Press, 1986).

  • Portrayals of the Moriori People
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. i Portrayals of the Moriori People Historical, Ethnographical, Anthropological and Popular sources, c. 1791- 1989 By Read Wheeler A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History, Massey University, 2016 ii Abstract Michael King’s 1989 book, Moriori: A People Rediscovered, still stands as the definitive work on the Moriori, the Native people of the Chatham Islands. King wrote, ‘Nobody in New Zealand – and few elsewhere in the world- has been subjected to group slander as intense and as damaging as that heaped upon the Moriori.’ Since its publication, historians have denigrated earlier works dealing with the Moriori, arguing that the way in which they portrayed Moriori was almost entirely unfavourable. This thesis tests this conclusion. It explores the perspectives of European visitors to the Chatham Islands from 1791 to 1989, when King published Moriori. It does this through an examination of newspapers, Native Land Court minutes, and the writings of missionaries, settlers, and ethnographers. The thesis asks whether or not historians have been selective in their approach to the sources, or if, perhaps, they have ignored the intricacies that may have informed the views of early observers. The thesis argues that during the nineteenth century both Maori and European perspectives influenced the way in which Moriori were portrayed in European narrative.

  • The New Zealand Wars: 19Th Century Views and Accounts
    W E L C O M E T O T H E H O C K E N 50c Friends of the Hocken Collections B U L L E T I N N U M B E R 12 : June 1995 The New Zealand Wars: 19th Century Views and Accounts HIS listing notes only those writings which reflect 19th century views and accounts of the New Zealand wars. Only a few, therefore, are dated post-1900, and these are reprints of 19th Tcentury manuscripts. During the Victorian era the wars in this country were named both the New Zealand Wars and the Maori Wars. There was not universal agreement among pakehas that the Maoris were in the wrong, and a small number of writers, often clergymen, took the side of the latter. While books and pamphlets held in the Hocken are easily traced through the Library’s card and on-line catalogues, or by reference to the New Zealand National Bibliography, despatches in the N.Z. Government Gazette and articles in newspapers and periodicals held in the Hocken are generally unlisted in these sources. ABBREVIATIONS: AWN = Auckland Weekly News; MR = Monthly Review (Wellington); NZE = N.Z. Examiner (London); NZG = N.Z. Gazette; NZH = N.Z. Herald; OW = Otago Witness.

  • Mission Film Script-Word
    A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the research requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Creative Writing. 8 November 2002, revised April 2016 Sophia (Sophie) Charlotte Rose Jerram PO Box 11 517 Wellington New Zealand i 1 Mission Notes on storv and location This film is set in two locations and in two time zones. It tells a story concerning inter-racial, same-sex love, and the control of imagemaking. A. The past story, 1828-1836 is loosely based on the true story of New Zealand Missionary William Yate and his lover, Eruera Pare Hongi. It is mostly set in Northland, New Zealand, and focuses on the inland Waimate North Mission and surrounding Maori settlement. B. The present day story is a fictional account of Riki Te Awata and an English Photographer, Jeffrey Edison. It is mostly set in the community around a coastal marae and a derelict Southern Mission.1 Sophie Jerram November 2002 1 Unlike the Waimate Mission, this ‘Southern Mission’ is fictional. It was originally intended to be the Puriri mission, at the base of the Coromandel Peninsular, established by William Yate in 1834. Since the coastal mission I have set the film in is nothing like Puriri I have dropped the name. i EXT. PORT JACKSON 1836, DAY A painted image (of the John Gully School) of the historical port of Sydney fills the entire screen. It depicts a number of ships: whaling, convict and trade vessels. The land is busy with diverse groups of people conducting business: traders, convicts, prostitutes, clergymen.
