  • Matthew Lorenzon Marshall-Hall Thesis for Printing Part 1
    The Literary Works of G. W. L. Marshall-Hall: 1888–1915 Matthew Donald Adrian Lorenzon Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts October 2010 Department of English The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper Fig. 1. Arthur Streeton, Portrait of Professor Marshall-Hall, 1892, pen and ink on envelope, image courtesy of the State Library of Victoria. i Abstract The literary oeuvre of the first Ormond Professor of Music at the University of Melbourne, George William Louis Marshall-Hall, registered the key philosophical, scientific, and political debates that raged in English and Australian periodicals during the period 1888–1915. His works, encompassing lectures, poetry, articles, and marginalia, also show Marshall-Hall reacting to his social surroundings, playing an active part in the intellectual communities of London and Melbourne. The thesis divides the author’s literary development into three periods, detailing each period’s principal works and the social and historical catalysts that caused his shifts between them. In the first section, 1888–92, it is argued that Marshall-Hall’s use of the philosopher of evolution Herbert Spencer in his London writings 1888–90 was influenced by his family’s scientific legacy and the progressive publishing rationale of the publisher of The Musical World Francis Hueffer. By participating in London’s Wagnerian literary culture he developed the evolutionary justification of Wagner’s works that he then took to Australia. In Australia 1891–92, conservative newspapers challenged Marshall-Hall’s Wagnerian and Spencerian writings. In response, he revaluated his ideas using the mystical metaphysics of Arthur Schopenhauer.

  • The University and the Law School
    The University and the Law School Professor Dennis Gibson* The opening of the Queensland Institute of Technology (QIT) law school in 1977 began a subtle change in the direction of the institution that would only reach fruition in the multi-disciplinary, multi-campus university of today. Queensland University of Technology (QUT) can trace its origins as far back as the Brisbane School of Arts, founded in 1849, and set up to provide night classes in the humanities and practical arts for working people. But the dominant strain in QUT's 'predecessor1 institutions was the applied science and engineering college which provided the model first for the Central Technology College (1908-64) and then for Queensland Institute of Technology (1965-89). The introduction of a law school was the begin- ning of a broadening of disciplinary boundaries at QIT, a broadening that contributed to the formation and development of QUT. QIT and the Sydney-based NSW Insti- tute of Technology were the first non-university tertiary institutions in Australia to offer Bachelor of Laws courses. Symbolically, perhaps, the founding of the law school was the beginning of our march to university status. While the law school contributed to a richer culture at the institution that housed it, the institution also affected the culture of the law school. From the beginning, QIT's courses in law were perceived as practical, oriented to the requirements of professional practice, and producing highly employable graduates. A recent meeting of vice-chancellors of the five Australian Technology Network universities (all descended from former state institutes of technology) came up with the following working definition of 'technology' in an attempt to encompass the extraordinary complexity of activity at these institutions: 'the application of creative thinking and ingenuity to the solution of definable and practical problems in all fields of human endeavour'.

    Chapter Three Bayly and Price Despite a seamless transition into che Associated Public Schools fold, the ensuing period ac the College proved to be unseeded, complicated by the succession of three Principals and the effects ofWorld War I. Initially, however, external confidence in the renewed Presbyterian ties was expressed in enrolments, which did not decrease in 1908 bur increased slightly to 193 and then to 207 in 1909. 1 Internally, the same confidence was expressed with physical growth, in che form of plans for a grand new school hall. Suddenly, in the space of less than a year, much of chis confidence evaporated with the deaths of both the Vice Principal and the Principal. The Vice Principal's death in May r 909 seemed to mark the end of an era; John Kerr (1889-1909) was deeply mourned as he had been on che stafffor a very long time, and second-in-charge since 1904. Although seem, he was an enthusiastic, energetic teacher who 'aimed always at the highest, and caught his scholars to do che same ... he always aimed at perfection [and] measured merely by the standard of examination results, his success as a reacher was remarkable'. 2 The school was even more deeply shocked when, six months lacer, orman Morrison was found dead.
