This issue A touching part of the FFFAIF tours of the Western Front is when Matt Smith leads a visit to High Tree Cemetery at Montbrehain, where some of the Diggers killed in the last battle fought by the AIF in the war are buried. In this issue, Evan Evans tells the story of this last action and considers whether it was necessary for the exhausted men of the AIF to take part. Andrew Pittaway describes how three soldiers had their burial places identified in Birr Cross Roads Cemetery, while Greg O’Reilly profiles a brave machine-gun officer. Just three of many interesting articles in our 64th edition of DIGGER. -
A Comparative Analysis of Artist Prints and Print Collecting at the Imperial War Museum and Australian War M
Bold Impressions: A Comparative Analysis of Artist Prints and Print Collecting at the Imperial War Museum and Australian War Memorial Alexandra Fae Walton A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University, June 2017. © Copyright by Alexandra Fae Walton, 2017 DECLARATION PAGE I declare that this thesis has been composed solely by myself and that it has not been submitted, in whole or in part, in any previous application for a degree. Except where stated otherwise by reference or acknowledgement, the work presented is entirely my own. Acknowledgements I was inspired to write about the two print collections while working in the Art Section at the Australian War Memorial. The many striking and varied prints in that collection made me wonder about their place in that museum – it being such a special yet conservative institution in the minds of many Australians. The prints themselves always sustained my interest in the topic, but I was also fortunate to have guidance and assistance from a number of people during my research, and to make new friends. Firstly, I would like to say thank you to my supervisors: Dr Peter Londey who gave such helpful advice on all my chapters, and who saw me through the final year of the PhD; Dr Kylie Message who guided and supported me for the bulk of the project; Dr Caroline Turner who gave excellent feedback on chapters and my final oral presentation; and also Dr Sarah Scott and Roger Butler who gave good advice from a prints perspective. Thank you to Professor Joan Beaumont, Professor Helen Ennis and Professor Diane Davis from the Australian National University (ANU) for making the time to discuss my thesis with me, and for their advice. -

Double Lives : Rex Battarbee & Albert Namatjira
Double Lives Double Lives : Rex Battarbee & Albert Namatjira Martin Edmond Thesis for a Doctorate of Creative Arts The University of Western Sydney July 26, 2013 Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare I have not submitted this material, either in full or in part, for a degree in this or any other institution. signed: ……………………………………… Acknowledgments I would like to thank Nigel Roberts for the generous gift of his archive of research materials; Ivor Indyk for wise supervision; Nick Jose for intelligent readings; Gayle Quarmby for the conversations; Stephen Williamson at the Araluen Centre and Nic Brown at Flinders University Art Musuem for showing me the works; all those at Ngarrutjuta / Many Hands; Maggie Hall for her constant support. Abstract This thesis consists of a creative component which is a dual biography of the two water colour painters, Rex Battarbee and Albert Namatjira, whose relationship was to have a decisive impact on Australian art; and an exegesis which describes the process of the making of that biography in such a way as to illuminate the issues, contentious or otherwise, that may arise during the progress of a biographical inquiry. The dual biography is focussed upon the public lives of the two men, one white Australian, the other Indigenous Australian of the Arrernte people, and especially upon their professional activities as painters. It is not an exercise in psychological inquiry nor an attempt to disclose the private selves of the two artists; rather, my interest is in describing the means by which each man found his calling as an artist; the relationship, life-long, which developed between them; the times in which they lived and how this affected the courses of their lives; and the results of their work in the public sphere. -
REX BUTLER and ADS DONADLSON French, Floral
Rex Butler and A.D.S. Donaldson, French, Floral and Female: A History of UnAustralian Art 1900-1930 (part 1) REX BUTLER AND A.D.S. DONADLSON French, Floral and Female: A History of UnAustralian Art 1900-1930 (part 1) ABSTRACT In this essay, which is another instalment in the authors' ongoing project of writing a history of UnAustralian art of the 20th century, the period 1900 to 1930 is characterised in terms of the three adjectives ―French‖, ―floral‖ and ―feminine‖. ―French‖ because so much of Australian art history took place in France, or in relation to France, during the period. ―Floral‖ because so much of this history can be understood in terms of flower painting, often included in still lifes and interiors, as opposed to the prevailing ‖gum tree‖ nationalism enshrined after the First World War. ―Female‖ because, extending the existing accounts by women art historians, the entire period can be understood as feminine in character. This UnAustralian account breaks with the importance attributed both to Norah Simpson bringing back books on Cubism in 1913 and to Grace Cossington-Smith's The Sock Knitter (1915) as the first signs of modernism in Australia, and to the War as an event that dramatically changed the course of Australian art history, either by sending Australian artists for the first time overseas or by explaining the prominence of women in Australian art after the War. To think of Australian art 1900-1930 as 'French, floral and female' is to imagine a different account from the usual nationalist one; to re-conceive a history that has remained fundamentally unaltered since William Moore's The Story of Australian Art (1934). -
Breaker Morant's Split Personality: Australian Male Identity Through Opposing Eyes
Breaker Morant's Split Personality: Australian Male Identity Through Opposing Eyes by Bronwyne Thomason BA (Hons), MA Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University May, 2013 Abstract Breaker Morant's Split Personality: Australian Male Identity Through Opposing Eyes Creative Artefact: Pilgrim’s Time The creative artefact is loosely based on Morant’s life and death. The narrative is written from three points of view and makes use of three variations of tense with the dual purpose of distinguishing between the different voices and to establish a dissonance that isolates the characters from each other by time and distance. The main character’s voice is written in past tense, third person and is set in Australia. It is juxtaposed against his mother’s voice that is written in present tense, third person and is set in England. The novel is framed with a prologue, that alerts the reader to the character’s imminent death, and the story begins in 1894, five years before Morant joined the Anglo-Boer war. The novel tells the story of a character known as ‘The Pilgrim’ who is unclear about his own identity and his place of belonging. His allegiance is divided between Australia and England, mother and father, friend and enemy. A number of minor characters highlight the theme of identity as central to the novel. Harvey, for instance, is a revision of Henry Lawson’s Arvie Aspinell. Fryingpan is a re-creation of A B Paterson’s innocent non-white Australian after the tradition of ‘Frying Pan’s Theology’, an overtly racist poem on the relationship between Australian Chinese immigrants, Indigenous Australians and white colonisers. -
