  • An Analysis of Food and Its Significance in the Australian Novels of Christina Stead, P
    F.O.O.D. (Fighting Order Over Disorder): An Analysis of Food and Its Significance in the Australian Novels of Christina Stead, Patrick White and Thea Astley. Jane Frugtneit A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Humanities James Cook University August 2007 ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to find a correlation between food as symbol and food as necessity, as represented in selected Australian novels by Christina Stead, Patrick White and Thea Astley. Food as a springboard to a unique interpretation of the selected novels has been under-utilised in academic research. Although comparatively few novels were selected for study, on the basis of fastidiousness, they facilitated a rigorous hermeneutical approach to the interpretation of food and its inherent symbolism. The principle behind the selection of these novels lies in the complexity of the prose and how that complexity elicits the “transformative powers of food” (Muncaster 1996, 31). The thesis examines both the literal and metaphorical representations of food in the novels and relates how food is an inextricable part of ALL aspects of life, both actual and fictional. Food sustains, nourishes and, intellectually, its many components offer unique interpretative tools for textual analysis. Indeed, the overarching structure of the thesis is analogous with the processes of eating, digestion and defecation. For example, following a discussion of the inextricable link between food, quest and freedom in Chapter One, which uncovers contrary attitudes towards food in the novels discussed, the thesis presents a more complex psychoanalytic theory of mental disorders related to food in Chapter Two.

  • SLR Consulting Australia Comments and Feedback on The: Noise Limit
    SLR-0282 31 October 2019 SLR Feedback on Noise Protocol 20191031.docx EPA Victoria GPO Box 4395 Melbourne Victoria 3001 Attention: Director of Policy and Regulation Dear Sir / Madam SLR Consulting Australia comments and feedback on the: Noise limit and assessment protocol for the control of noise from commercial, industrial and trade premises and entertainment venues GENERAL COMMENTS The following comments apply to the Protocol generally. 1. The scope of the document is not defined within the document. For this document to be stand alone, the definition of ‘noise sensitive area’ should be provided within the Protocol, and not just in the Environment Protection Regulations Exposure Draft and the Summary of proposed noise framework. If it is determined that the definitions should not be provided within the Protocol itself, the Protocol should, as a minimum, direct the reader to these documents for the definition. 2. The Protocol appears to have dropped the use of italics, inverted comments and / or capitalisation when using terms that have a specific technical meaning in the context of the document. This can lead to confusion as the terms typically also have common usage interpretations. Instances include: • Noise sensitive area. See (1). • Receiver distance. See (20)a and (20)c. • Background relevant area. See (21). We recommend that all terms with a specific technical meaning in the Protocol, and particularly those that use common English, be italicised or marked in some other way so that the reader knows to refer to the glossary for their meaning. 3. There is no ‘Agent of Change’ option for the assessment of commercial noise.
