WESTERLY, No.4, SUMMER, 1993 3 CROSSING THE WATERS EDITORIAL COMMENTS Introducing the 1991 special issue of Westerly, editors Bruce Bennett and Dennis Haskell commented that some of the magazine's special issues 'reflect the tenor of the times'. To say that this is true of the present issue would be one of the under-statements of the year. 'Asia' is not just currently fashionable in Australia - it has become a political and media obsession. Australia's expanding links with Asia have been accompanied by a wideranging debate, at times heated, about the basic nature of Australia's identity in the 1990s - and for the next century. All too often we are offered the simplistic choice of deciding whether Australia is 'part of Asia' (and even 'Asian') or whether it is currently, and will continue to be, fundamentally a 'European' society. Anyone who questions Australia's growing 'enmeshment' with Asia tends to be denounced as Eurocentric or 'Orientalist' (a la Said), while the Asia enthusiasts are accused of selling out Australia's European, and especially British, cultural heritage. An integral component of this simplistic dichotomy is the continuing notion that there is an 'Asian' identity which can be juxtaposed against an 'Australian' one. We are besieged daily by media reports about 'Asian immigration', 'business opportunities in Asia', 'Australians should learn more about Asian culture', and so on. Yet the term 'Asia' is, of course, no more than convenient shorthand for a region that has over half the world's population, hundreds of different ethnic groups, and four of the world's major cultural traditions (Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism and Islam). As John Steadman argued in his book The Myth of Asia almost twenty five years ago, the cultural and social differences within the region are often as great as those between anyone 'Asian' culture and Western Judao-Christian culture. For all of this, the Australia-Asia dichotomy - and the symbolism of "crossing the waters", "the sea wall" (as Christopher Koch wrote), or the bridge to Asia - remains a powerful concept. As this collection illustrates, there are many different 'Asias' (and 'Australias ') and many types of bridges as well as crossings and cross fertilisations. The major theme of these essays and poems is that of personal encounters: the minutiae of social and cultural interaction that challenges, but also sometimes confirms, the common stereotypes of the 'other'. Kirpal Singh and Sang Ye - the Singaporean Sikh and the PRC Chinese - encounter the "puzzling continent" of Australia, as do poets Edwin Thumboo and Hersri Setiawan. In Dewi Anggraeni's story 'Music for Libretto', the Indonesian­ Australian encounter becomes a rather more intimate one. From the other side, Chris Doran has to come to terms with his gaijin identity in Japan when encountering a classroom of twelve-year-olds and their teacher. A second theme, and one on which there is now a substantial amount of 4 WESTERLY. No.4. SUMMER. 1993 writing and commentary, is that of Australian novels and accounts of travel set in Asia. Most of the articles argue that this writing has been characterised - and continues to be characterised - by Orientalism and ethnocentrism. In her examination of Australian fiction set in southeast Asia, Koh Tai Ann raises the question of whether the Australian imagination can, in fact, "do without Asia as the exotic Other". Graham Huggan detects similar features in the representation of India in recent Australian fiction, as does Ron Blaber in his examination of Australian travel writing about Asia in the 20s and 30s. An associated theme is the representation of Chinese in Australian fiction with Ouyang Yu arguing that there is 'still a long way to go towards returning the Chinese as truly human beings to Australian fiction'. Although this Asia-Australia issue of Westerly undoubtedly reflects the tenor of the times, it is not simply part of the current 'Asia' vogue. Rather it continues a concern with Asia which has been a feature of the magazine ever since it commenced publication in 1956.

    1 E. L. Grant Watson—THE MAJOR NOVELS & STORIES Where Bonds are Loosed - 1 The Mainland – 5 Deliverance - 10 Shadow and Sunlight – 11 The Desert Horizon – 14 Daimon - 18 The Partners - 24 The Short Stories – ‘Out There’, ‘Gnilgie’, etc WHERE BONDS ARE LOOSED (1914) Based on Grant Watson’s observations of the stockman and medical staff living at the Lock Hospitals on Bernier and Dorre islands, the novel begins in a sweltering corrugated iron roofed hotel at ‘Port Kaimera’, or Carnarvon. John Sherwin, having shown his qualifications when provoked into a bar fight, is made an attractive offer—£3 a week, his own house and a young Solomon islander boy as a cook—to work as an overseer on Kanna [Bernier] Island. Sherwin’s subsequent voyage to Kanna with ‘Pomfrey’, in an old pearling lugger stinking from its earlier cargo of turbot shells and now carrying forty chained, seasick and frightened Aboriginal patients, resembles Bates’s later description of similar events, while a journey by the young research scientist Dr Hicksey—modelled on the real-life government pathologist Dr Steele—mirrors Grant Watson’s experiences with Henrietta and the ‘Shark’. The incumbent medical supervisor, Dr Hubbard, prefers the milieu of Fenton [Dorre] Island, where the female patients and nurses are housed, and stays away for up to six weeks at a time. Sherwin, while it is not part of his job, feels pity for the neglected male patients and tries to alleviate their suffering. Those who can walk are expected, under Sherwin’s rough but unquestioned authority, to help with patient care and labour at building 2 useless roads.

Il est mort le 29 juillet 1890, à l’âge de 37 ans, dans l’anonymat et la pauvreté, ayant vendu un seul tableau parmi les 2000 œuvres qu’il a produites en moins d’une décennie. Malgré une condition physique et psychique fragile, Vincent van Gogh a laissé une œuvre immense. Il a été parmi les pionniers de l’expressionnisme, exerçant une influence profonde sur les artistes du 20ème siècle. La vie de Vincent van Gogh nous est racontée à travers les lettres qu'il a écrites à son frère Theo de 1872 jusqu'à sa mort tragique. Grâce à ces documents, nous entrons dans l’intimité de l’artiste en découvrant l’homme, ses motivations et sa profonde humanité.

However, after the disappointing score for The Nun and the Bandit, Cox looked elsewhere for a composer and returned to Paul Grabowsky, who had done A Woman’s Tale with him and would go on to do Innocence.
