At a time when the Premier of Western Australia Sir John Forrest had begun to doubt the wisdom of his resource rich but under-developed colony joining the emerging Commonwealth, Kirwan conspired with Perth Federalists, Walter James and George Leake, to force Forrest’s hand. Editor and part- owner of the influential Kalgoorlie Miner, the ‘pocket-handkerchief’ newspaper he had transformed into one of the most powerful journals in the colony, he waged a virulent press campaign against the besieged Premier, mocking and belittling him at every turn and encouraging his east coast colleagues to follow suit.

  • City of Subiaco Thematic History and Framework
    CITY OF SUBIACO THEMATIC HISTORY AND FRAMEWORK Prepared for the City of Subiaco KRISTY BIZZACA February 2014 THEMATIC HISTORY & FRAMEWORK OF SUBIACO ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2012, the City of Subiaco determined to undertake a Thematic History that would become the guiding document used to provide a Framework for understanding the evolution of the City’s cultural landscape in order to review the City’s Local Government Inventory. The consultant, Kristy Bizzaca, was commissioned in March 2012 to undertake this work. This Thematic History examines Subiaco's growth from pre-history, through to the foundation of the Swan River Colony in 1829 and up to the present day (2014) for the purposes of creating an overview of the main periods of development in the City. The history has been divided into eight periods with each chapter/section marking an important stage in the progress of Subiaco. In addition to providing a summary of local events and activities during these years, key factors, stories, themes and characteristics have been determined for each context. The first section identifies Aboriginal Histories of the area such as the water ways and gathering places of pre-history through to the dispossession, assimilation, institutionalisation and, more recently, reconciliation of the Post European History Period. The Colonial Period (1829 - 1870s) is the basis of the second section. It traces the early history of the place following the foundation of the Swan River Colony in 1829, encompassing the original land grants, the roads and railway routes that stimulated settlement and the establishment of the Benedictine Community at 'New Subiaco' in the 1850s.

  • An Historical Analysis of Five Women Missionaries and Their Encounters with the Nyungar People of South-West Australia
    “Was it worthwhile?” An historical analysis of five women missionaries and their encounters with the Nyungar people of south-west Australia. Alison Longworth B.Ed B.D(Hons) M.A in Theology This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University, 2005. I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ----------------------------------- Alison Longworth ii Abstract Was it worthwhile? The thesis asks this question of the life and work of female faith missionaries who served in Western Australia with the Australian Aborigines’ Mission and/or the United Aborigines’ Mission, during the twentieth century. In 1902, the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission adopted faith mission principles based on those of the China Inland Mission founded in 1865. The mission expanded into Western Australia in 1908 and changed its name to the Australian Aborigines’ Mission. From 1929, it was known as the United Aborigines’ Mission. The research began with a historiography of the China Inland Mission and the United Aborigines’ Mission and its antecedents. The analysis of the principles of these two missions identified that some characteristics of a faith mission were present in the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission from the beginning and others were never adopted. It established that from 1902, the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission upheld the faith principles of trusting God to provide physical needs, not soliciting for funds and not entering into debt. Because most faith missionaries were female, the historiography proceeded to examine texts on women missionaries, including recent work by Australian writers.
