2011 Fulbright Australian Scholars 2011 Fulbright Australian Scholars Welcome J. William Fulbright was dedicated to peace and the scholarships that bear his name are a testament to his belief in the power of education in bringing about a better world. Fulbright believed that mutual understanding provides much greater security than weapons ever could. With this in mind I am proud to welcome, and present, the 2011 Fulbright Australian Scholars on behalf of the Australian-American Fulbright commission Board. These 26 outstanding individuals have been selected from a competitive field of applicants. Through their Scholarships they will - again in Fulbright’s words – have the opportunity to “think unthinkable thoughts” as they undertake research in a range of fields including law, philosophy, science, creative writing and mathematics. I congratulate them and wish them well in all their endeavours. This year we are pleased to announce the winners of the inaugural Fulbright Northern Territory Scholarship, sponsored by the Northern Territory Government, charles Darwin University and Blackboard, and the Fulbright Nuclear Science and Technology Scholarship sponsored by ANSTo. We are also delighted that two of our Australian Scholars have won the prestigious International Fulbright Science and Technology Awards. These Awards cover full tuition, stipend and other expenses for three years of PhD study in the U.S. and are the most valuable in the Fulbright Program. making this year even more exciting for the Fulbright commission, we also have two Fulbright Scholarships sponsored by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The second Scholarship has been awarded in 2011 to mark the 60th Anniversary of the Fulbright Program in Australia, and also the 25th Anniversary of Australia-U.S. ministerial consultations. The Fulbright Program is funded by the U.S. and Australian governments and a generous group of sponsors including BHP Billiton, Telstra, cSIRo, ANSTo, Blackboard state governments and universities. I thank all the Program’s supporters for their contributions, which help us to sustain and extend this wonderful program. Professor Steven Schwartz chair, Australian-American Fulbright commission Board congratulatioNS on behalf of the Australian Fulbright Alumni Association (AFAA), I would like to congratulate you - the 2011 Australian Fulbright Scholars – on your success. Being part of the Fulbright Program is an incredible experience. The Fulbright Program is unique in many ways, including the reciprocal nature of Scholar exchanges, the broad range of professional fields that are covered, and the different scholarship levels, from post- graduate to senior specialist awards, that are available. There is no doubt that many Scholars have found their Fulbright experience to be truly life changing, and I sincerely hope your experience will be one that makes you want to remain a part of the Fulbright Program long after your scholarship has ended. The Australian Fulbright Alumni Association supports the Fulbright vision by continuing to build and enhance the relationship between Australia and the United States. our goal is to facilitate a range of professional networking activities in both countries, provide support to incoming and outgoing Scholars, and to provide new scholarship opportunities through donations from members. We create opportunities for you to stay engaged with the program and continue to interact with other Fulbright Scholars and Alumni after you return from the United States. We look forward to welcoming you into the Fulbright family and supporting your experience and professional networking through the AFAA. congratulations and best wishes.

  • A Life of Thinking the Andersonian Tradition in Australian Philosophy a Chronological Bibliography
    own. One of these, of the University Archive collections of Anderson material (2006) owes to the unstinting co-operation of of Archives staff: Julia Mant, Nyree Morrison, Tim Robinson and Anne Picot. I have further added material from other sources: bibliographical A Life of Thinking notes (most especially, James Franklin’s 2003 Corrupting the The Andersonian Tradition in Australian Philosophy Youth), internet searches, and compilations of Andersonian material such as may be found in Heraclitus, the pre-Heraclitus a chronological bibliography Libertarian Broadsheet, the post-Heraclitus Sydney Realist, and Mark Weblin’s JA and The Northern Line. The attempt to chronologically line up Anderson’s own work against the work of James Packer others showing some greater or lesser interest in it, seems to me a necessary move to contextualise not only Anderson himself, but Australian philosophy and politics in the twentieth century and beyond—and perhaps, more broadly still, a realist tradition that Australia now exports to the world. Introductory Note What are the origins and substance of this “realist tradition”? Perhaps the best summary of it is to be found in Anderson’s own The first comprehensive Anderson bibliography was the one reading, currently represented in the books in Anderson’s library constructed for Studies in Empirical Philosophy (1962). It listed as bequeathed to the University of Sydney. I supply an edited but Anderson’s published philsophical work and a fair representation unabridged version of the list of these books that appears on the of his published social criticism. In 1984 Geraldine Suter published John Anderson SETIS website, to follow the bibliography proper.

    Situating Women Judges on the High Court of Australia: Not Just Men in Skirts? Kcasey McLoughlin BA (Hons) LLB (Hons) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, the University of Newcastle January 2016 Statement of Originality This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university or other tertiary institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference has been made in the text. I give consent to the final version of my thesis being made available worldwide when deposited in the University's Digital Repository, subject to the provisions of the Copyright Act 1968. Kcasey McLoughlin ii Acknowledgments I am most grateful to my principal supervisor, Jim Jose, for his unswerving patience, willingness to share his expertise and for the care and respect he has shown for my ideas. His belief in challenging disciplinary boundaries, and seemingly limitless generosity in mentoring others to do so has sustained me and this thesis. I am honoured to have been in receipt of his friendship, and owe him an enormous debt of gratitude for his unstinting support, assistance and encouragement. I am also grateful to my co-supervisor, Katherine Lindsay, for generously sharing her expertise in Constitutional Law and for fostering my interest in the High Court of Australia and the judges who sit on it. Her enthusiasm, very helpful advice and intellectual guidance were instrumental motivators in completing the thesis. The Faculty of Business and Law at the University of Newcastle has provided a supportive, collaborative and intellectual space to share and debate my research.

  • Textual Archaeology: a Contextual Reading of The
    TEXTUAL ARCHAEOLOGY: A CONTEXTUAL READING OF THE 1942 NURI MASS THESIS ON VIRGINIA WOOLF by Suzanne Bellamy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sydney March 2018 Abstract My thesis recovers, reads and contextualises a long-lost early Australian thesis on Virginia Woolf submitted by University of Sydney MA student Nuri Mass in 1942. Through its careful reading and contextualisation, my thesis aims to reveal the significance of the Mass thesis for both contemporary Woolf studies (early textual readings) and consequently for transnational modernist studies at large, also producing new, fine-grained insights into the 1930s Australian context for Woolf’s reception and Australian engagement with literary modernism. I will contend that the Nuri Mass thesis was written at, and fundamentally shaped by, a pivotal transition in the reception of Woolf’s writing, marking a shift in Woolf’s place in the literary modernist canon following her death, the rupture presented by world war, and the rise of Leavisite canon formation. Likewise my analysis of the Mass thesis sheds new light on academic, institutional and cultural contexts of 1930s Australian modernism. In addition to the Mass thesis itself, previously unexplored contextual manuscript and documentary materials are introduced, opening new lines of enquiry in the field of transnational/Australian modernism. ii The thesis is dedicated to Nuri Mass and Ruth Gruber iii Acknowledgements For guidance and support through this long process I wish to thank my supervisors Emeritus Professor Elizabeth Webby and Dr Brigid Rooney, for inspiration, acute insightful editing and commitment to the long haul.

  • Arthur Alexander Banning - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Arthur Alexander Banning - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Arthur Alexander Banning(27 June 1921 - 2 November 1965) Arthur Alexander (Lex) Banning was an Australian lyric poet. Disabled from birth by cerebral palsy, he was unable to speak clearly or to write with a pen. "Yet he overcame his handicap to produce poems which were often hauntingly beautiful and frequently ironic, and gave to other, younger poets a strong sense of the importance and value of their calling". Such younger poets included Clive James, Les Murray and Geoffrey Lehmann. <b>Early Life</b> <b>A note on sources</b> By good fortune, one of Banning's closest friends was the late Richard Appleton ("Appo"), a bohemian writer and raconteur who met the poet in Sydney's Lincoln coffee lounge, about 1950. Appleton later became editor-in-chief of the Australian Encyclopaedia and, in 1983, was co-editor with Alex Galloway of the posthumous Banning collection There Was a Crooked Man which includes reliable biographical information. In writing this, Appleton received the benefit of access to a collection of letters in the possession of Dr Anne Banning. <b>Birth and disability</b> Lex Banning was born on 27 June 1921 in Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney, son of Arthur Antoine Banning, a waiter from Belgium who later became a theatre proprietor, and his native-born wife Helma Louise, née Hall, of Scots and Swedish descent. As a result of a difficult birth, the infant suffered from athetoid cerebral palsy, a spastic condition against which he was to struggle all his life.
