INTRODUCTION The Australian book trade Although printing presses travelled as essential tools of government with the men and women who established the British colonies in Australia, the high cost of printing in Australia and the smallness of the population, scattered across the vast distances of the new continent, long hampered the emergence of an Australian publishing industry. In contrast, once the earliest years were over, the hunger of Australians for books created a prosperous bookselling trade which in time laid the foundations for pub­ lishing. At the end of the nineteenth century, at a time when the connection between bookselling and publishing was becoming more and more tenuous in Britain, Australian booksellers such as the two George Robertsons were able to offer Australian writers local access to print on a scale that had been impossible for most of the nineteenth century. Their success, and that of such bookselling pragmatists as E.W. Cole and A.C. Rowlandson, was due in no small part to their vast experience of what it was that Australians wanted to read. The catalogue which follows charts the publishing history that is hinted at above. The method, which is one of annotation of each item rather than continuous narrative, runs the risk of being too episodic, but it has the merit of empiricism, and of conveying something of the variety of publishing with which we are concerned. On the other hand, the history of bookselling can be succinctly summarized at this point, along lines indicated by the pioneering work of Elizabeth Webby and Wallace Kirsop, and at the same time something of the inter­ connection of publishing and bookselling in Australia can be indi­ cated. There was hardly an organized book trade in Australia until the second decade of the nineteenth century. People took books with them when they left for Australia, and added to them by individual correspond­ ence with booksellers, friends or family. When their owners died, or returned to Europe, these books were frequently sold. Although there were no fulltime booksellers in Sydney until the 1830s, many people took advan­ tage of the high prices books fetched by importing them as a speculation. These speculative consignments began in 1821, and continued until at least the 1850s. Elizabeth Webby has estimated that over 73,000 volumes were advertized for sale in Australia in the 1830s, in contrast to 12,000 in the 1820s. By the 1840s over 200,000 volumes were advertized in Sydney alone. At the same time the first generation of Australian booksellers had begun to establish themselves, often running circulating libraries as well as selling other goods. John Fawkner of Melbourne, for example, sold beer, pigs and cattle as well as second-hand books after 1838. The first Sydney bookseller was possibly Robert Howe, who succeeded his printer father George Howe and also combined bookselling and

  • (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.

  • A Career in Writing
    A Career in Writing Judah Waten and the Cultural Politics of a Literary Career David John Carter MA Dip Ed (Melb) Thesis submitted as total fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Faculty of Arts, Deakin University, March 1993. Summary This thesis examines the literary career of Judah Waten (1911-1985) in order to focus on a series of issues in Australian cultural history and theory. The concept of the career is theorised as a means of bringing together the textual and institutional dimensions of writing and being a writer in a specific cultural economy. The guiding question of the argument which re-emerges in different ways in each chapter is: in what ways was it possible to write and to be a writer in a given time and place? Waten's career as a Russian-born, Jewish, Australian nationalist, communist and realist writer across the middle years of this century is, for the purposes of the argument, at once usefully exemplary and usefully marginal in relation to the literary establishment. His texts provide the central focus for individual chapters; at the same time each chapter considers a specific historical moment and a specific set of issues for Australian cultural history, and is to this extent self-contained. Recent work in narrative theory, literary sociology and Australian literary and cultural studies is brought together to revise accepted readings of Waten's texts and career, and to address significant absences or problems in Australian cultural history. The sequence of issues shaping Waten's career in
