  • (WA) from 1938 to 1980 and Its Role in the Cultural Life of Perth
    The Fellowship of Australian Writers (WA) from 1938 to 1980 and its role in the cultural life of Perth. Patricia Kotai-Ewers Bachelor of Arts, Master of Philosophy (UWA) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Murdoch University November 2013 ABSTRACT The Fellowship of Australian Writers (WA) from 1938 to 1980 and its role in the cultural life of Perth. By the mid-1930s, a group of distinctly Western Australian writers was emerging, dedicated to their own writing careers and the promotion of Australian literature. In 1938, they founded the Western Australian Section of the Fellowship of Australian Writers. This first detailed study of the activities of the Fellowship in Western Australia explores its contribution to the development of Australian literature in this State between 1938 and 1980. In particular, this analysis identifies the degree to which the Fellowship supported and encouraged individual writers, promoted and celebrated Australian writers and their works, through publications, readings, talks and other activities, and assesses the success of its advocacy for writers’ professional interests. Information came from the organisation’s archives for this period; the personal papers, biographies, autobiographies and writings of writers involved; general histories of Australian literature and cultural life; and interviews with current members of the Fellowship in Western Australia. These sources showed the early writers utilising the networks they developed within a small, isolated society to build a creative community, which welcomed artists and musicians as well as writers. The Fellowship lobbied for a wide raft of conditions that concerned writers, including free children’s libraries, better rates of payment and the establishment of the Australian Society of Authors.

  • Book History in Australia Since 1950 Katherine Bode Preprint: Chapter 1
    Book History in Australia since 1950 Katherine Bode Preprint: Chapter 1, Oxford History of the Novel in English: The Novel in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the South Pacific since 1950. Edited by Coral Howells, Paul Sharrad and Gerry Turcotte. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2017. Publication of Australian novels and discussion of this phenomenon have long been sites for the expression of wider tensions between national identity and overseas influence characteristic of postcolonial societies. Australian novel publishing since 1950 can be roughly divided into three periods, characterized by the specific, and changing, relationship between national and non-national influences. In the first, the 1950s and 1960s, British companies dominated the publication of Australian novels, and publishing decisions were predominantly made overseas. Yet a local industry also emerged, driven by often contradictory impulses of national sentiment, and demand for American-style pulp fiction. In the second period, the 1970s and 1980s, cultural nationalist policies and broad social changes supported the growth of a vibrant local publishing industry. At the same time, the significant economic and logistical challenges of local publishing led to closures and mergers, and—along with the increasing globalization of publishing—enabled the entry of large, multinational enterprises into the market. This latter trend, and the processes of globalization and deregulation, continued in the final period, since the 1990s. Nevertheless, these decades have also witnessed the ongoing development and consolidation of local publishing of Australian novels— including in new forms of e-publishing and self-publishing—as well as continued government and social support for this activity, and for Australian literature more broadly.

Organisational Background 4 4. Strategic Plan 6 1 GEELONG GALLERY STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 – 2023 Endorsed by Geelong Gallery Board 21 September 2020 1. OUR PURPOSE Geelong Gallery’s purpose is to provide an experience of art that will enrich people’s lives. PILLARS Geelong Gallery’s purpose is underpinned by four pillars: 1. Geelong Gallery will deliver artistic and cultural advancement for the community thus making Geelong a more liveable City; 2. Geelong Gallery will bring economic benefit to the region through tourism arising from its exhibitions and events; 3. Geelong Gallery will connect and empower people by promoting equity, diversity, inclusion, access and lifelong learning; 4. Geelong Gallery will expand its premises to provide greater access to its collections and exhibitions, in order to significantly enhance the delivery of its aims in the first, second and third pillars. 2. INTRODUCTION This document summarises the strategic direction of Geelong Gallery for the period 2020–2023. This Plan is endorsed by the Geelong Gallery Board and supported by six key sub-committees of the Board focussed on the Governance and guidance of Gallery operations. The plan is implemented by Senior Management via detailed annual business plans. While many Gallery activities delivered are quantifiable, the primary outcomes of the Gallery’s core business — across exhibitions, learning and public programs, and visitor experience — are qualitative: beyond conventional accounting and measurement, and reliant on peer, popular and critical response in the short and long term, and on the cumulative effects of learning, engagement and self-determination.

Signature of Student: Date: 12 August 2014 3 INTRODUCTION Alf Pollard’s contribution to the business history of Australia is as yet unwritten—both as a biography of the man himself, but also his singular, albeit often quiet, achievements. He helped to shape the business world in which he operated and, in parallel, made outstanding contributions to Australian society. Cultural deprivation theory tells us that people who are working class have themselves to blame for the failure of their children in education1 and Alf was certainly from a low socio-economic, indeed extremely poor, family. He fitted such a child to the letter, although he later turned out to be an outstanding counter-example despite having no ‘built-in’ advantage as he not been socialised in a dominant wealthy culture.

  • Canberra Bird Notes
    Canberra bird notes ISSN 0314-8211 Volume 4 Number 8 EDITORIAL We have a lead time of approximately two months for the production of Canberra Bird Notes. Normally we publish the Annual Bird Report in October each year, but as much of the material on which the report is based is not in the hands of the Records Officer until the July meeting, production of the ABR has always been something of a rush. We are hopeful that C.O.G. will have a larger volume of records available in future from which to prepare the ABR, so this is an appropriate time to put its publication back to the January issue. CBN 4 8 1 October 1979 NOTES ON THE BACKGROUND OF ‘BIRDS IN THE AUSTRALIAN HIGH COUNTRY’ Betty Temple Watts In 1958 Robert Carrick suggested that I should do illustrations for a book on the A.C.T. birds. I did one plate of the Ibis and Spoonbills before coming to Canberra to live. Warren Hitchcock, John Calaby, Robert Carrick and I made a list of the birds which had been recorded in the A.C.T. and added some which we thought might turn up. We divided these into a series of plates for me to draw. Five of these were not altered after they were finished. All the others were drawn and redrawn as new birds were found and had to be fitted in. I was greatly helped in learning about the trees and plants which I needed for the illustrations by Alec Costin and Nancy Burbidge, both scientists with CSIRO.

  • Religion and Social Class in the Lives of Two Leading Australian Women, Betty Archdale and Kylie Tennant
    Divine Horizons: Religion and Social Class in the Lives of Two Leading Australian Women, Betty Archdale and Kylie Tennant Deidre Michell Gender, Work and Social Inquiry University of Adelaide, Adelaide, SA, 5005 [email protected] Abstract: In this chapter I examine the experiences of two influential twentieth-century women, Betty Archdale (1907–2000) and Kylie Tennant (1912–1988), through the lenses of social class and religion. Both women were born into middle–upper-class families and both had mothers who continued to identify as Christian Scientists until they died. Archdale and Tennant, however, both converted to the Anglican Church as adults, sharing this as well as their ongoing critiques of the Australian establishment. Despite their conversion to mainstream Christianity, I argue that some aspects of Christian Science doctrine influenced both women in their public lives. Keywords: Betty Archdale, Kylie Tennant, social class, Christian Science, women’s leadership, social conditions, women in sport, girls’ education Betty Archdale (1909–2000) was a leader in women’s sport, particularly cricket. As a prominent educationalist during the 1950s and 1960s she was also an early advocate for what is now known as ‘lifelong learning’ and encouraged girls to take up studies in the ‘hard’ sciences in advance of the second wave feminist movement. Born in London, Archdale first became well known in Australia as captain of the English women’s cricket team during the significant first test match between the Australian women’s cricket team and the English women’s cricket team in the Australian summer of 1934–1935. During this first tour of Australia, Archdale was particularly struck by the egalitarian composition of the Australian women’s cricket team, a factor which influenced her decision to make her home in Sydney after World War II.
