    Cambridge Imperial & Post-Colonial Studies INTIMACIES OF VIOLENCE IN THE SETTLER COLONY ECONOMIES OF DISPOSSESSION AROUND THE PACIFIC RIM EDITED BY PENELOPE EDMONDS & AMANDA NETTELBECK Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies Series Series Editors Richard Drayton Department of History King’s College London London, UK Saul Dubow Magdalene College University of Cambridge Cambridge, UK The Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies series is a collection of studies on empires in world history and on the societies and cultures which emerged from colonialism. It includes both transnational, comparative and connective studies, and studies which address where particular regions or nations participate in global phenomena. While in the past the series focused on the British Empire and Commonwealth, in its current incarna- tion there is no imperial system, period of human history or part of the world which lies outside of its compass. While we particularly welcome the first monographs of young researchers, we also seek major studies by more senior scholars, and welcome collections of essays with a strong thematic focus. The series includes work on politics, economics, culture, literature, science, art, medicine, and war. Our aim is to collect the most exciting new scholarship on world history with an imperial theme.

  • Within Australian History
    “From Progress to Process”: Locating the Transformation of ‘Progress’ within Australian History Thomas Grainger Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of Technology Sydney This thesis explores how the Enlightenment values of reason, freedom and progress has shaped and continues to shape the social welfare practices of Australian society. It demonstrates how the idealisms of colonialism cemented the universal narrative of progress into the very framework of civilisation, mapping the government’s quest for perfection in light of its founding as a place of correction, a penal colony for Great Britain. Through an analysis of progress’ manifestation into the realm of institutionalisation, it questions the very validity of Enlightenment sentiments and its latent paradoxical nature as a rationale for freedom, yet simultaneously, confinement and restriction. Using the development of the Female Orphan School Parramatta, from an early colonial orphanage to a mental asylum, it unlocks the possibility of modernity acting as a form of cannibalism, ironically consumed in destroying its own inherent structures and ideals through the practical manifestations of its ways of thinking. Drawing upon the work of Nietzsche and Baudrillard, the denunciation of metanarratives such as progress, is unveiled through an analysis of history’s relativity. The postmodern conception of individual truth, Foucault’s professing of discourse, gives rise to the notion of history as a product of contemporary society’s knowledge, rather than an objective reflection of the past. Upon the banks of Parramatta River, secluded behind the University of Western Sydney, stands the historically enriched Female Orphan School. It towers over the individual, in all of its colonial-inspired architectural glory, as the first purposely-built social welfare institution and three-story building within Australia (1813) (Collison, 1986).

  • Transforming the Female Orphan School
    Macquarie University ResearchOnline This is the author’s version of an article from the following conference: Saltmarsh, David, (2005) Transforming the Female Orphan School. Creative dissent : constructive solutions : AARE 2005 conference, 27 November - 1 December, 2005, Parramatta, NSW. Coldstream, Vic.: Australian Association for Research in Education. Access to the published version: http://www.aare.edu.au/05pap/sal05288.pdf Transforming the Female Orphan School David Saltmarsh School of Education, Macquarie University Presented at AARE 2005 conference Creative Dissent: Constructive solutions Abstract The Female Orphan School has been referred to as a national heirloom, Sydney’s forgotten colonial icon, a jewel and a national treasure, but how much do we know about the original purposes of this building? And should we care? This paper reviews the transformation of this building from orphan school to hospital for the insane to university research centre. The case study data is drawn from historical documents, art works, newspaper reports and interviews with architects and heritage consultants. This material is analysed using a combination of critical discourse analysis and a theoretical framework developed largely from the work Michel de Certeau. The paper argues that while the building’s status as an icon, its importance to the local area and Australia’s history is strongly promoted in the press, this appreciation is largely superficial. The paper concludes that the greater significance of the Orphan School that we should seek lies in the ways that the building has been discursively formed to produce a range of ideological representations. Introduction The impetus for this paper came from a desire to document the ways in which our understandings of the Female Orphan School have been distorted by reporting of it as a recent acquisition of the University of Western Sydney (UWS).
