  • 54 George Seddon (1927–2007)
    George Seddon (1927–2007) 54 Australian Academy of the Humanities, Proceedings 32, 2007 George Seddon (1927−2007) 2 eorge Seddon was born on 23 April 1927, at Berriwillock, Victoria, the Gsecond of four children and son of a bank manager who was related to the former New Zealand Prime Minister Richard Seddon. George’s secondary schooling was as a scholarship boy at the Church of England Grammar School, Ballarat. In 1945, he started at Trinity College, Melbourne University, reading for a degree in English (tutored by Nonie Gibson, later Dame Leonie Kramer). Three years later, he graduated with a First, sharing the Dwight’s Prize in the School of English Language and Literature. His next few years were spent in Britain, Canada and on the Continent in a variety of posts, including work for the British Council in Portugal, at Winchester College, and at universities in Lisbon and Toronto. (He claimed to have been the first person ever to be appointed to Winchester specifically to teach English!) Through extensive travel and study, he acquired Portuguese, Spanish, French and German, and became fluent enough in Italian to be able to lecture in that language later on, perhaps assisted by his two years of Latin at Melbourne. Returning to Australia in 1956, George took up a lectureship in English at the University of Western Australia and was subsequently promoted to senior lecturer. But while in Perth he determined to qualify in science also (in his ‘spare time’) and nearly completed a BSc with a major in geology, gaining distinctions all the way.

  • INTRODUCTION Environmental History in Western Australia Before 1980
    INTRODUCTION Environmental History in Western Australia before 1980 Geoffrey Bolton Murdoch University Amateur and professional historians both contributed to the evolution of environmental history in Western Australia. While due recognition must be made of the influence of international and eastern Australian scholarship, the historical geographers in particular, it remains the case that much of the impetus for recognising the importance of environmental factors in the Western Australian past came from historians working locally. This should not be surprising in a society of recent European origin which until the 1960s depended on wool and wheat as major staples. Researchers tracing historical change over the relatively brief period of settlement since 1829 could not help observing rapid transformations of landscape and ecology during that period. It was maybe also relevant that even the residents of the capital city, Perth, lived with Kings Park as what was considered an icon of natural bush, although in reality one that had undergone considerable modification. The observers came from a variety of sources. The proceedings of the [Royal]1 Western Australian Historical Society founded in 1926 included from its beginnings members whose rural experience enabled them to make practical observations on local environmental change. As early as 1927 Mary Farrelly and H.K. Maley drew attention to an enlightened initiative of Maitland Brown, as resident magistrate of Geraldton in the early 1870s. Confronted with the encroachment of sandhills on the town area, he set the unemployed to plant native shrubs and trees extensively around the outskirts of Geraldton, earning the praise of Governor Weld.2 Later contributors to the Historical Society, among 1 The Western Australian Historical Society was granted the right of including ‘Royal’ in its name in 1963.

  • Landscape Architecture and Environmentalism in the Expansion Era for Australian Universities: the Work of Bruce Mackenzie and Associates Andrew Saniga
    The 18th International Planning History Society Conference - Yokohama, July 2018 Landscape architecture and environmentalism in the expansion era for Australian universities: the work of Bruce Mackenzie and Associates Andrew Saniga Associate Professor Landscape Architecture, Planning and Urbanism, Melbourne School of Design, The University of Melbourne, [email protected] The 1960s and 1970s were an era of expansion of the tertiary education sector internationally with entirely new universities developed at an unprecedented pace. In the Australian context, the quintessential start-up suburban campus was usually set within a greenfield site - typically on post- agricultural land at the fringe of rapidly expanding suburbia. An effective role for landscape architecture often materialised from symbiotic relationships between architects, engineers, planners, horticulturalists, and others. A significant driver in shaping and enacting a clear vision for a distinctive quality of campus landscape came internal to university administration. Communities consisting of academic staff, administrative staff, and other interested and talented practitioners have been found to be crucial in defining a niche for landscape architects in campus design, marking a significant moment in the recognition and due regard that would be paid to a small but influential profession on the Australian scene. This paper records the themes that define the distinctive nature of the Australian condition. Focusing on campus designs by Bruce Mackenzie and Associates (BMA), the paper provides a preliminary assessment of the roles and influence of people, organisations, and events in the creation of the modern campus in Australia. It concludes that the most effective results were achieved when the landscape architect was engaged at the formative stages of campus development and had broad support inclusive of collaboration with other consultants and with university administrators and on-ground staff.

  • Harvest of the Suburbs
    Harvest of the Suburbs_cover 15/6/05 5:07 PM Page 1 HARVEST OF THE SUBURBS OF HARVEST Who has grown their own food in Australian suburbs? And why have they grown it? How have they gone about keeping animals and growing HARVEST fruit and vegetables, and with what impacts? What can the history of food-producing spaces tell us about the diverse cultures, and values, of OF THE SUBURBS suburban Australia? Drawing on sources ranging from gardening books and magazines, to statistics and oral history, Harvest of the Suburbs challenges some of the widespread myths about food production in Australian cities, and traces the reasons for its enduring popularity. In focusing on the meanings of food production for gardeners and animal-keepers, Harvest illuminates a range of contemporary ideas relating to work, social organization such as traditional gender roles, health and the body, and relationships between people and nature. In particular, it provides new insights into the tension between the quest for independence and the desire for interdependence in suburban Australia. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of environmental, urban and cultural history and is essential reading for the modern-day gardener interested in learning from more than one hundred years of keeping poultry, goats and cows, and growing fruit and vegetables, in Australian suburbs. Andrea Gaynor Andrea ANDREA GAYNOR’s interest in suburban food production began when she was eight, with a failed attempt at growing okra in her parents’ backyard in the Perth suburb of Woodlands. With her enthusiasm undampened by this inauspicious start, Andrea went on to study permaculture, breed traditional varieties of poultry and occasionally grow a decent tomato.

  • Introduction to George Seddon Trevor Hogan, La Trobe University, Melbourne George Seddon (B
    67 Introduction to George Seddon Trevor Hogan, La Trobe University, Melbourne George Seddon (b. 1927) is Professorial Associate, Centre for Studies in Australian Literature, Department of English, University of Western Australia. In an era of "specialists without spirit", and of enterprise universities creating territory to ensure their fitness to survive, Seddon is that rare and endangered species that Thomas Carlyle once dubbed as "Professor of Things-in-General". He is one of the best known and revered Australian scholars of environmental studies having penned pioneering studies in regional geography, environmental history, and literary criticism, aesthetics and landscape. Seddon was initially trained in English language and literature at The University of Melbourne (1950) In 1956 upon returning from several years freelance travelling and teaching at universities in Europe, Canada and the United States, what he calls a "customary bigfella walkabout", Seddon was appointed to a lectureship in English Literature at The University of Western Australia. He discovered, much to his initial disgust, that the local bush was nothing like what he had grown to love in his home state of Victoria in South-east Australia. Never one to disown his emotions or putting them aside without reflection, Seddon enrolled in undergraduate biological and earth sciences while carrying a full academic research, teaching and administrative load in the English Department. Such was his new found interest in the Swan Coastal Plain that he wrote two books on the subject and completed his Masters of Science and doctoral thesis in geology at the University of Minnesota (1964-66). Across five decades he has held Chairs in four different disciplines (English, UWA; Geology, Oregon; History and Philosophy of Science, UNSW; Environmental Science, Melbourne) and taught at universities in Lisbon, Toronto, Bologna, Rome, Venice, Minnesota, and Oregon in addition to Melbourne, Sydney and Perth in Australia.
