My thanks also go to the University of New South Wales, Sydney, and in particular Prof. Martyn Lyons, who made it possible for me to study at UNSW as a Visiting Research Associate while I wrote my thesis. I am very grateful to my parents-in-law Paul and Keryl Kavanagh for their wonderful support. Thank you to my mum, Margrit Hagen, and my dad, Roland Hagen, for their love. I would also like to thank all my friends in Switzerland and Australia, in particular Tanja Hess-Scheiwiler, whose loyal and loving friendship has accompanied me through the writing of this thesis despite the oceans that lie between us. And last but not least, I would like to thank my husband Morgan Kavanagh. His unconditional love and our many discussions on my research kept me going when work on my thesis was difficult. 3 Introduction In 1919 the editor Arthur Wilberforce Jose wrote to the publisher George Robertson to ask him for advice about the procedures he should follow as editor of the Australian Encyclopaedia (AE): We are now up against a problem which may recur in connection with the Encyclopaedia work. When a man has been engaged to do an article, and some of his work is obviously and irrefutably wrong, what is my duty? Do I put it straight, and have the article published as his? or do I leave it wrong and let his signature take the blame? or do we delete his signature and do what we like with the article? In the case of men like Jeffery or Scott there will be no trouble: both are of that decent type that wants its stuff right, and doesn’t mind who puts it right. But the immediate case is Collingridge. (...) Now, if this were a magazine article, C. could say what he liked and could be contradicted. But in an Encyclopaedia article that can’t be done.1 This letter shows that Jose had recognised an important characteristic of the encyclopaedic genre: in contrast to many other genres, encyclopaedias, like dictionaries, give the air of being both objective and infallible. There are several reasons for this. Most encyclopaedias are written not by one, but by a large number of authors, who are often recognised authorities in their field. In many encyclopaedias the authors remain anonymous, implying that they are giving the consensus view on the topics presented. The style in which encyclopaedia articles are written suggests that they present ‘facts’; they contain no questions or formulations that indicate uncertainty.2 It is in the interest of the producers of encyclopaedias to nurture this air of objectivity. In encyclopaedia prefaces, statements like the following may be found: The CYCLOPAEDIA OF AUSTRALASIA (...) supersedes and renders obsolete all previous books upon the British dominions in the South. It is a complete Australasian Library in itself. It cannot itself be superseded by process of time, since the historical information it contains is of permanent value, and the current (mostly statistical) information can be readily brought up to date at any time with a pen by the possessor of the volume.3 1 Letter from Arthur Wilberforce Jose on 21 July 1919 to George Robertson, Mitchell Library (hereafter ML): MS 314/41. 2 Paul Michel and Madeleine Herren, ‘Unvorgreifliche Gedanken zu einer Theorie des Enzyklopädischen: Enzyklopädien als Indikatoren für Veränderungen bei der Organisation und der gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung von Wissen’, Allgemeinwissen und Gesellschaft, Akten des internationalen Kongresses über Wissenstransfer und enzyklopädische Ordnungssysteme, vom 18. bis 21.

(Fergusson and Moore, Melbourne 1881) p. xi. 4 The words ‘information’ and ‘permanent’ imply that encyclopaedias contain objective facts beyond the historical process, while ‘complete’ and ‘Library’ suggest exhaustive knowledge above the fluctuations of ‘the current’. Encyclopaedias thus lay claim not only to objectivity, but also to completeness. This claim is an illusion: knowledge is a construction.4 Knowledge varies according to social-historical and cultural factors such as the needs, ideals, rulers and fashions of particular times and places.5 Encyclopaedias, a classic model for the storage of knowledge, reflect this subjectivity in the construction of knowledge. Analysis of encyclopaedias reveals what aspects of knowledge are considered important in a society, what values are being promoted and what areas of knowledge are regarded as taboo.6 Encyclopaedias are not passive mirrors, but have the power, along with other cultural, artistic and educational products, to subtly control and, paradoxically, to change the societies which produced them. Considering this political potential of encyclopaedias it is surprising that they have been largely neglected in historical-political research, although they have been examined in various other contexts. Some studies have dealt with encyclopaedias as a literary genre revealing linguistic characteristics; some have discussed encyclopaedias from a lexicographic or library-historical perspective; some have restricted themselves to the analysis of individual encyclopaedias or to particular periods of encyclopaedic production, leaving the political significance of the works treated largely unexplored.7 4 The definition of the terms ‘knowledge’, ‘information’ and ‘education’ vary according to different periods and places. There is no clear distinction between them. The terms have in common that they do not signify

    Convict Labour and Colonial Society in the Campbell Town Police District: 1820-1839. Margaret C. Dillon B.A. (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.) University of Tasmania April 2008 I confirm that this thesis is entirely my own work and contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis. Margaret C. Dillon. -ii- This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Margaret C. Dillon -iii- Abstract This thesis examines the lives of the convict workers who constituted the primary work force in the Campbell Town district in Van Diemen’s Land during the assignment period but focuses particularly on the 1830s. Over 1000 assigned men and women, ganged government convicts, convict police and ticket holders became the district’s unfree working class. Although studies have been completed on each of the groups separately, especially female convicts and ganged convicts, no holistic studies have investigated how convicts were integrated into a district as its multi-layered working class and the ways this affected their working and leisure lives and their interactions with their employers. Research has paid particular attention to the Lower Court records for 1835 to extract both quantitative data about the management of different groups of convicts, and also to provide more specific narratives about aspects of their work and leisure.

  • The Scottish Background of the Sydney Publishing and Bookselling
    NOT MUCH ORIGINALITY ABOUT US: SCOTTISH INFLUENCES ON THE ANGUS & ROBERTSON BACKLIST Caroline Viera Jones he Scottish background of the Sydney publishing and bookselling firm of TAngus & Robertson influenced the choice of books sold in their bookshops, the kind of manuscripts commissioned and the way in which these texts were edited. David Angus and George Robertson brought fi'om Scotland an emphasis on recognising and fostering a quality homegrown product whilst keeping abreast of the London tradition. This prompted them to publish Australian authors as well as to appreciate a British literary canon and to supply titles from it. Indeed, whilst embracing his new homeland, George Robertson's backlist of sentimental nationalistic texts was partly grounded in the novels and verse written and compiled by Sir Walter Scott, Robert Bums and the border balladists. Although their backlist was eclectic, the strong Scottish tradition of publishing literary journals, encyclopaedias and religious titles led Angus & Robertson, 'as a Scotch firm' to produce numerous titles for the Presbyterian Church, two volumes of the Australian Encyclopaedia and to commission writers from journals such as the Bulletin. 1 As agent to the public and university libraries, bookseller, publisher and Book Club owner, the firm was influential in selecting primary sources for the colony of New South Wales, supplying reading material for its Public Library and fulfilling the public's educational and literary needs. 2 The books which the firm published for the See Rebecca Wiley, 'Reminiscences of George Robertson and Angus & Robertson Ltd., 1894-1938' ( 1945), unpublished manuscript, Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, ML MSS 5238.

Abstract Title: Bronze Southern Doors of the Mitchell Library, Sydney. The building of the major part of the Mitchell Library (1939 - 1942) resulted in four pairs of bronze entrance doors, three on the northern facade and one on the southern facade. The three pairs on the northern facade of the library are obvious to everyone entering the library from Shakespeare Place and are well documented. However very little has been written on the pair on the southern facade apart from brief mentions in two books of the State Library buildings, so few people know of their existence. Sadly the excellent bronze doors on the southern facade of the library cannot readily be opened and are largely hidden from view due to the 1987 construction of the Glass House skylight between the newly built main wing of the State Library of New South Wales and the Mitchell Library. These doors consist of six square panels featuring bas-reliefs of different early printers’ marks and two rectangular panels at the bottom with New South Wales wildflowers.

  • Thesis Title
    Creating a Scene: The Role of Artists’ Groups in the Development of Brisbane’s Art World 1940-1970 Judith Rhylle Hamilton Bachelor of Arts (Hons) University of Queensland Bachelor of Education (Arts and Crafts) Melbourne State College A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2014 School of English, Media Studies and Art History ii Abstract This study offers an analysis of Brisbane‘s art world through the lens of artists‘ groups operating in the city between 1940 and 1970. It argues that in the absence of more extensive or well-developed art institutions, artists‘ groups played a crucial role in the growth of Brisbane‘s art world. Rather than focusing on an examination of ideas about art or assuming the inherently ‗philistine‘ and ‗provincial‘ nature of Brisbane‘s art world, the thesis examines the nature of the city‘s main art institutions, including facilities for art education, the art market, conservation and collection of art, and writing about art. Compared to the larger Australian cities, these dimensions of the art world remained relatively underdeveloped in Brisbane, and it is in this context that groups such as the Royal Queensland Art Society, the Half Dozen Group of Artists, the Younger Artists‘ Group, Miya Studios, St Mary‘s Studio, and the Contemporary Art Society Queensland Branch provided critical forms of institutional support for artists. Brisbane‘s art world began to take shape in 1887 when the Queensland Art Society was founded, and in 1940, as the Royal Queensland Art Society, it was still providing guidance for a small art world struggling to define itself within the wider network of Australian art.
