  • Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1
    10 Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1 TheOxford English Dictionary defines networking as ‘the action or process of making use of a network of people for the exchange of information, etc., or for professional or other advantage’.2 Although recently prominent in management theory, the art of networking has been practised over many centuries in many societies, but its role in the Australian academic community has been little explored. This essay represents a preliminary excursion into the field, raising questions that more systematic researchers may follow in time, and drawing unashamedly on the resources of the Australian Dictionary of Biography. Beginning on the eve of the First World War, the essay is bounded by the formation of the Australian Historical Association in 1973, at which date the profession provided itself with 1 This essay is a lightly edited version of the paper prepared by Geoffrey Bolton for the ‘Workshop on Biographies and Autobiographies of Historians’ held at The Australian National University in July 2015. Professor Bolton had intended to make further revisions, which included adding some analysis of the social origins of the Australian historians who participated in the networks he had defined. In all essential respects, however, we believe that the essay as presented here would have met with his approval, and we are very grateful to Carol Bolton for giving permission to make the modest editorial changes that we have incorporated. For biographical information and insights, see Stuart Macintyre, Lenore Layman and Jenny Gregory, eds, A Historian for all Seasons: Essays for Geoffrey Bolton (Melbourne: Monash University Publishing, 2017).

  • KRAMER, Leonie
    36 THE AUSTRALIAN ACADEMY OF THE HUMANITIES ANNUAL REPORT 2015–16 DAME LEONIE KRAMER ac dbe 1924–2016 fellow · elected 1974 In 1968 she was offered the Sydney Chair in Australian Literature, succeeding the first appointee, G. A. Wilkes, and remained there until her retirement in 1989. Established in 1963 in response to a public fundraising campaign, the Sydney chair was the first and for many years the only chair in the world dedicated to the study of Australian literature. Dame Leonie’s contribution to the teaching of Australian literature at Sydney was arguably the major achievement of her career. In the 1960s, Australian literature was still a relatively new academic subject and it had a limited role in the undergraduate curriculum, with the English major dominated by the British canon. Her appointment was soon followed, in the early 1970s, by the establishment of a course dedicated to Australian literature. It proved extremely popular with students and was developed into a major with greatly expanded curriculum. Then and since, these innovations have met with fierce opposition but can be seen in retrospect as the necessary and enabling conditions for the subject’s development. The late 1970s to the early 1990s saw a continuous photo: courtesy of university of sydney expansion of the Australian literature courses.

The Chancellor Her Excellency Professor Marie Bashir AC CVO (left) conferring the honorary degree upon Emeritus Professor Dame Leonie Kramer AC DBE (right), photo, copyright Memento Photography. Citation Chancellor, I present Dame Leonie Kramer, Companion of the Order of Australia, Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire for admission to the degree of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa). Dame Leonie Kramer was the Chancellor of this University between 1991 and 2001. Before that, for some years, she served as Deputy Chancellor. It was a time of great change. She devoted herself with supreme dedication to the University and to its place of excellence amongst the universities of the world. She brought her established reputation as a teacher, thinker and writer about Australian literature as well as her role as a public intellectual and greatly accomplished woman to the manifold duties of Chancellor. She was the first woman in nearly a hundred and fifty years to be elected Chancellor of the University. This was but one of many glass ceilings that she challenged and overcame during her glittering career. It is in part because of Dame Leonie's place as an outstanding role model and fearless champion for her views that the University honours her today. We acknowledge her enormous devotion to the University and the dedication evident in the countless graduations, Senate meetings, committees and functions that she attended as the principal public face of the University.
