In the world today, Australia is a dynamic business and trade partner and a respected global citizen. We value the contribution of new migrants to our country’s constant growth and renewal. Australia today The land Australia is unique in many ways. Of the world’s seven continents, Australia is the only one to be occupied by a single nation. We have the lowest population density in the world, with only two people per square kilometre. Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. It is the sixth largest country in the world. It is also the driest inhabited continent, so in most parts of Australia water is a very precious resource. Much of the land has poor soil, with only 6 per cent suitable for agriculture. The dry inland areas are called ‘the Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. outback’. There is great respect for people who live and work in these remote and harsh environments. Many of It is the sixth largest country in the world. them have become part of Australian folklore. Because Australia is such a large country, the climate varies in different parts of the continent. There are tropical regions in the north of Australia and deserts in the centre. Further south, the temperatures can change from cool winters with mountain snow, to heatwaves in summer. In addition to the six states and two mainland territories, the Australian Government also administers, as territories, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Christmas Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Jervis Bay Territory, the Coral Sea Islands, Heard Island and McDonald Islands in the Australian Antarctic Territory, and Norfolk Island.

  • Strategies of the Frontier in Fin De Siècle Australia
    ANTHONY PYM Strategies of the Frontier in fin de siècle Australia Published in Comparative Literature 48/1 (1996), 19-38. Historians of Australian culture have never been entirely at ease with the 1890s. On the one hand, the period has served as the privileged source of a nationalist mythology still in circulation. On the other, the same years bore traces of an international modernist culture, represented most saliently by the poet Christopher Brennan and the group of painters nominally headed by Tom Roberts. Separating the national from the international, so it would seem, were the French cultural influences known as Symbolism and Impressionism. Any appreciation of the nationalism and internationalism of the Australian 1890s requires an understanding of these French influences. And yet there remains a certain reluctance among comparatists to return to the analysis of influence, even within the relatively enlightened frame of postcolonial studies. I have elsewhere dealt with this problem with respect to the Spanish- American fin de siècle (1992), where I analyzed influences in terms of receptive strategies able to constitute and manipulate cultural frontiers. I now hope to show that the same notion of influence can be made historically respectable in the Australian case as well. My hypothesis is that Symbolism and Impressionism were used in Australia as strategic third terms that enabled Australians to lever certain regionalist ideals away from British metropolitan culture. The French influences entered the internal logic of an Australia that was both nationalist and internationalist, and did so in both painting and literature. To grasp the workings of what we might call a general strategy of “cultural leverage,” an adequate comparatist approach cannot separate any of these terms.

Carolyn Philpott Date ii Abstract Malcolm Williamson (1931-2003) was one of the most successful Australian composers of the latter half of the twentieth century and the depth, breadth and diversity of his achievements are largely related to his decision to leave Australia for Britain in the early 1950s. By the 1960s, he was commonly referred to as the “most commissioned composer in Britain” and in 1975 he was appointed to the esteemed post of Master of the Queen’s Music. While his service to music in Britain is generally acknowledged in the literature, the extent of his contribution to Australian music is not widely recognised and this is the first research to be undertaken with a strong focus on the identification and examination of the many works he composed for his homeland and his projection of an Australian identity through his music and persona.
