Francis Brabazon Collection: Significance Assessment Report
Francis Brabazon Collection: Significance Assessment Report Dr Ray Kerkhove Woombye, 2008 1 INDEX Collection Background…………………………….. 3 A. Statement of Significance……………………..... 4 B. Significance by Comparative Criteria…………. 15 C. Australian & Queensland Heritage Themes…… 17 D. Recommendations (Implementation)………….. 20 Appendixes………………………………………... 21 2 Collection Background The collection began as the personal library of Baron Frederick von Frankenberg, which was accumulated in Germany and other parts of Europe c.1900-1920s. It was initially housed at Camden (outside Sydney, NSW). The library formed the core resource for Australia’s first Sufi group and other persons interested in the arts and spirituality at that time. From this phase, the collection gained early editions of Inayat Khan’s works and the only extant material on the early Sufi Society in Australia. In 1950, the Modernist poet Francis Brabazon inherited the collection when he succeeded the Baron as head of the Sufi Society. Thereafter, and until 1959, the collection was housed in the centre Francis was constructing at Beacon’s Hill (Sydney). It continued to be used by Francis and his associates. Francis also added his own library, which consisted of books and recordings he acquired in Melbourne, New York and elsewhere. Some of these acquisitions reflect Francis’ role in early Australian Modernism. This enlarged it into an unusually comprehensive collection on the world’s literary and scriptural texts, which Francis then utilized in the creation of his own poetry, prose and music. Also from this period came many notes and drafts of Francis’ early works. Between 1959 and 1969, Francis Brabazon resided in India with his spiritual master, Meher Baba. -

Make Education Fair Senate Submission
August 08 Senate Submission: Academic Freedom ACADEMIC FREEDOM MAKE EDUCATION FAIR 13th August 2008 Committee Secretary Senate Education, Employment and Workplace Relations Committee Department of the Senate SUBMISSION TO SENATE INQUIRY INTO ACADEMIC FREEDOM The Young Liberal movement and the Australian Liberal Students Federation are gravely concerned about fairness in education. We welcome the opportunity to provide a submission into the inquiry into Academic Freedom, representing the voice of mainstream students across the country. Make Education Fair Campaign Bias at our high schools and university campuses has reached epidemic proportions. Many of our student members have approached us with numerous stories of this bias being expressed by teachers, reflected in the curriculum or in a hostile atmosphere for students who cannot freely express their views. We would like to ensure that all students continue to have the right to exercise freedom of thought and expression, without fear of reprisal or penalty. Over the past few months, the Make Education Fair campaign has actively sourced examples from students who have experienced bias on university campuses. The depth of academic bias uncovered by this campaign, most notably in the arts faculties of Australia’s major universities, is gravely disturbing and poses significant challenges for diversity within the education sector. The examples that have been provided to us indicate the following problems with academic freedom within Australia: • A lack of diversity amongst academics and the -
Full Thesis Draft No Pics
A whole new world: Global revolution and Australian social movements in the long Sixties Jon Piccini BA Honours (1st Class) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2013 School of History, Philosophy, Religion & Classics Abstract This thesis explores Australian social movements during the long Sixties through a transnational prism, identifying how the flow of people and ideas across borders was central to the growth and development of diverse campaigns for political change. By making use of a variety of sources—from archives and government reports to newspapers, interviews and memoirs—it identifies a broadening of the radical imagination within movements seeking rights for Indigenous Australians, the lifting of censorship, women’s liberation, the ending of the war in Vietnam and many others. It locates early global influences, such as the Chinese Revolution and increasing consciousness of anti-racist struggles in South Africa and the American South, and the ways in which ideas from these and other overseas sources became central to the practice of Australian social movements. This was a process aided by activists’ travel. Accordingly, this study analyses the diverse motives and experiences of Australian activists who visited revolutionary hotspots from China and Vietnam to Czechoslovakia, Algeria, France and the United States: to protest, to experience or to bring back lessons. While these overseas exploits, breathlessly recounted in articles, interviews and books, were transformative for some, they also exposed the limits of what a transnational politics could achieve in a local setting. Australia also became a destination for the period’s radical activists, provoking equally divisive responses. -
