  • RADICAL TASMANIA: Rebellion, Reaction and Resistance: a Thesis in Creative Nonfiction: Volume I: Exegesis
    Written Thesis in Submission for the Candidature of Doctor of Philosophy RADICAL TASMANIA: Rebellion, Reaction and Resistance: A Thesis in Creative Nonfiction: Volume I: Exegesis by Robert Hodder School of Behavioural & Social Sciences & Humanities University of Ballarat PO Box 663 University Drive, Mount Helen Ballarat, Victoria 3353 Australia Submitted in September 2009 Copyright © Robert Hodder 2010 Robert Hodder Radical Tasmania – Exegesis Abstract Radical Tasmania is a political history of radicals in Tasmania theorised and narrated in creative nonfiction. The exegesis analyses radical history, politics and historiography in the context of the “Narrative Wars” (“History Wars” and “Story Wars”). History, it is argued, can be understood as moving through a process of “value” drawn from a play of its meaning in both the social sciences and the arts. This is theorised as a “figurational tension”. It suggests a poetics for the imaginative use of literary devices through creative nonfiction for a radical historiography. Such a narrative has considerable potential for academic research in the pursuit of a popular or “vulgar” readership in the urgency of the power struggles which emerged from the Narrative Wars and their implications for a democratic culture. Tasmania, as an island society which has experienced brutal oppression, widespread repression and later vigorous political activism, is a case study for a “storyscape” of radical geo-identity. This theory is then applied through creative nonfiction in selected histories of radicals

  • Section II the Colonial Realm
    209 Section II The Colonial Realm Section two of the thesis extends Chartist historiography to Australia by way of a series of case studies. Chapter six looks at changing perceptions of the Australian colonies (primarily New South Wales, Van Diemen's Land and Victoria) between the first phase of Chartist activity in the mid-to-late 1830s, and the early 1850s, when the Australian goldrushes began. This transitional chapter is then followed by a discussion of the first truly radical-democratic Australian newspaper, the People's Advocate, published in Sydney, New South Wales, from late 1848 by Edward Hawksley. The final two chapters then move southwards to the new colony of Victoria, and are primarily concerned with tracing the Chartist political inheritance in a society spectacularly transformed by British emigration during the 1850s. Chapter eight looks closely at the 'red-ribbon' demonstrations mobilised at Bendigo in Central Victoria in mid-1853 against the thirty shilling monthly license fee required to engage in goldmining. The final chapter looks beyond the heyday of the alluvial goldrushes, and examines the Land Convention which sat in Melbourne in 1857, as well as other aspects of Victorian democratic culture. In sum, section two examines the vitality, limitations and evolution of a Chartist cultural inheritance in various (and quite different) Australian contexts, and also critically appraises the domestic horizons of both colonial and Chartist historiography. Chapter Six The Place of Australia in Chartist Rhetoric One theme that invariably arises in writing about the place of Australia in nineteenth- century European literature and culture generally is the ramifications of distance.' Until the advent of telegraphic communication isolation gave early European society in Australia a curiously suspended character.

Joost Van Eynde [email protected] ORCID: 0000-0002-3609-5692 © Joost Van Eynde 2018 To my mom (1959-2011), who fell ill and passed away when I had just begun this journey: Thank you for your unconditional love and support. To my wife, Sofie, and our two children, Jack and Olivia: Thank you for never doubting me and for being tough on me when I did. i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Like the indigenous bodies that circulate through its pages, this dissertation has traveled a long way. It came into its own only during the final three years of graduate school, when a bout of self-doubt compelled me to question whether I was “made” for historical research. There were then, and still are, good reasons to doubt myself. I started graduate school at the University of Michigan in 2011. The first two years of course work exposed me to the methods and potential of historical research that my earlier training in linguistics and American Studies had only begun to broach. Part of being “new” to history meant that my curiosity was easily swayed.
