Tasmania . 170 Chapter 1: Introduction In Australia there are four Catholic cathedrals designed in the Romanesque style (Canberra, Newcastle, Port Pirie and Geraldton) and one Anglican cathedral (Parramatta). These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.

The Queenslanders would be going home – albeit as colonial cousins – taking with them their experience of the sub-tropics. Without their verandahs but with their pediments intact, the form and planning, fenestration and detailing can be interpreted as Palladian, translated into timber, the material originally available in abundance for building construction. ‘High-set’, the local term for South-East Queensland’s raised houses, denotes a feature that is very much the traditional Italian piano nobile [‘noble floor’]: the principal living areas on a first floor with a rusticated fac¸ade of battens infilling between stumps and shaped on the principal elevation as a superfluous arcade to a non-existent basement storey.

  • The Chinese Experience in Australia
    The Chinese Experience in Australia © ASIA Volume 43 Number 2 79 The Chinese Experience in Australia – A Brief Outline for Stages 3– 5 by Di Dunlop dward Hargraves returned to Australia from California in 1851 where he had experienced the Efrenzy of the Gold Rushes in California. He had previously been at Bathurst in New South Wales and believed that the local rock formations resembled what he had seen in California. He spent time panning in Bathurst, and found gold. On 15 May 1851 the discovery was announced and workers flocked to the area to make their fortunes. By August of that year the interest had shifted to Victoria, because Thomas Hiscock had discovered gold on the rich alluvial flats at Ballarat. Both Geelong and Melbourne were almost emptied of men. By the end of the same year news of the discoveries had spread around the world. Hopefuls came from Ireland, Scotland, England and America. By the end of 1853 the decline in income of the alluvial digger caused him to perceive a wider significance in the difference between the equality and mateship of the goldfields, Banner from 1860 and 1861 anti-Chinese rebellion on the Lambing Flat goldfields, now present day Young, NSW. Source: Wikimedia Commons and the inequality and political and social privilege that prevailed in the society that surrounded him.·1 Chinese had first begun to arrive at t he Victorian Life was difficult and the crime rate was high.

    Sydney Journal 1(3) December 2008 ISSN 1835-0151 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/ojs/index.php/sydney_journal/index Religion Hilary M Carey The modern city of Sydney has a reputation to uphold for its larrikin spirit, hedonism and resistance to authority – including that represented by organised religion. Just how this reputation was achieved has never been seriously researched but it is usually assumed that Sydney’s convict origins and the number of Irish Catholics in the demographic mix have something to do with it. In fact it is truer to say that religion has had a profound influence on the geography, culture, politics, and artistic life of the city. While religion in Sydney has mostly been a conservative force, preserving traditions transported there from home societies, it has also reflected the setting and people of Sydney, its harbour, bushland and suburbs. This article reviews the history of religion in Sydney and the role it has played in the lives of those who have made their home here. Aboriginal traditions The Aborigines of the Sydney region were divided socially and culturally into dozens of local clans and five main language groups: Guringai to the north, Darkinjung to the north-west of the Hawkesbury, Dharug on the coast (another Dharug dialect was spoken inland), Dharawal from the south side of Botany Bay down to the Shoalhaven, and Gundungurra on the southern rim of the Cumberland plain and west to the Georges River.1 From the observations of Watkin Tench and David Collins in the 1780s, as well as the accounts published by the ethnographer RH Mathews in the 1890s, it can be assumed that the religious beliefs of the Sydney people resembled those described in more detail by the missionary Lancelot Threlkeld (1788–1859) for the people of Lake Macquarie (Awaba) and the Hunter River, whose language and country adjoined that of the Guringai to the north.
