Australian Elegy: Landscape and Identity
Australian Elegy: Landscape and Identity by Janine Gibson BA (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of (Doctor of Philosophy) Deakin University December, 2016 Acknowledgments I am indebted to the School of Communication and Creative Arts at Deakin University (Geelong), especially to my principal supervisor Professor David McCooey whose enthusiasm, constructive criticism and encouragement has given me immeasurable support. I would like to gratefully acknowledge my associate supervisors Dr. Maria Takolander and Dr. Ann Vickery for their interest and invaluable input in the early stages of my thesis. The unfailing help of the Library staff in searching out texts, however obscure, as well as the support from Matt Freeman and his helpful staff in the IT Resources Department is very much appreciated. Sincere thanks to the Senior HDR Advisor Robyn Ficnerski for always being there when I needed support and reassurance; and to Ruth Leigh, Kate Hall, Jo Langdon, Janine Little, Murray Noonan and Liam Monagle for their help, kindness and for being so interested in my project. This thesis is possible due to my family, to my sons Luke and Ben for knowing that I could do this, and telling me often, and for Jane and Aleisha for caring so much. Finally, to my partner Jeff, the ‘thesis watcher’, who gave me support every day in more ways than I can count. Abstract With a long, illustrious history from the early Greek pastoral poetry of Theocritus, the elegy remains a prestigious, flexible Western poetic genre: a key space for negotiating individual, communal and national anxieties through memorialization of the dead. -

ABSTRACT — Sampling and analysis of gasteroid agaricomycete species ( Phallomycetidae and Agaricomycetidae ) associated with relicts of native Espinal forests in the southeast region of Córdoba, Argentina, have identified twenty-nine species in fourteen genera: Bovista (4), Calvatia (2), Cyathus (1), Disciseda (4), Geastrum (7), Itajahya (1), Lycoperdon (2), Lysurus (2), Morganella (1), Mycenastrum (1), Myriostoma (1), Sphaerobolus (1), Tulostoma (1), and Vascellum (1). The gasteroid species from the sampled Espinal forests showed an overall similarity with those recorded from neighboring phytogeographic regions; however, a new species of Lysurus was found and is briefly described, and Bovista coprophila is a new record for Argentina. KEY WORDS — Agaricomycetidae , fungal distribution, native woodlands, Phallomycetidae . Introduction The Espinal Phytogeographic Province is a transitional ecosystem between the Pampeana, the Chaqueña, and the Monte Phytogeographic Provinces in Argentina (Cabrera 1971).

Undoubtedly there has been a change not only in the writers but in public taste. Readership or audience that wants the home product and the local theme is one of the phenomena that connect the new drama, the new films, and much of the new poetry and the new short stories.

JOHN SHAW NEILSON and TIW FLORAL Mefaphor
Noel Macalnsh JOHN SHAW NEILSON AND TIW FLORAL MEfAPHOR The femme fatale was a fascinating figure of art in Victorian times. Mario Praz, in his well-known book, The Romantic Agony, has described her manifestations in several European literatures, including English. In Australia too, "Ia belle dame sans merci," the beautiful woman, imperious, fascinating and cruel, appears in various forms in the poetry of Christopher Brennan, Kenneth Slessor, A.D. Hope and others. Norman Lindsay has painted her image. The femme fatale is a striking creation, threatening pain, castration, delusion and death, but also suggesting the possibility of ecstatic union. She is of both heaven and hell, is sought among the stars and in the underworld, is Lilith, Persephone, Circe, a Siren or heartless cocette; she promises immor- tality or obsession and ruin. Nevertheless, the femme fatale is not the only distinctive projec- tion of femininity to be found in Australian poetry. Inherently less striking, but complementary in its displacement from everyday reality is the figure of the fragile girl, the delicate child-woman, a tender and transient flower, a beautiful ideal doomed to wither before the crude demands of life. John Shaw Neilson is the supreme representative of this figure in Australian poetry. In Neilson, the femme fragile, as she will be called here, rather than the femme enfant, is typically presented as a girl, who "innocent/in the whistling Spring," will not survive into Summer. She is "the tenderest of pale girls." 1 She grows ill and must die. The theme was popular in Neilson's time. Edgar Allen Poe wrote that "The death, then, of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetical topic in the world." 2 If, for "beautiful woman," we substitute "young girl" or occasionally "young boy," this statement becomes quite applicable to Neilson also. -

Most of their staff are engaged in direct service to the present university community or in acquiring and making the basic finding records for books, periodicals, tapes and other information sources. Compiling a catalogue of manuscripts is a different type of operation which university libraries can all too seldom afford. It is a painstaking, detailed, time-consuming operation for which a busy library and busy librarians find difficulty in finding time and protecting that time from the insistent demand of the customer standing impatiently at the service counter. Yet a collection of manuscripts languishes unusable and unknown if its contents have not been listed and published. -

The Poetry of John Shaw Neilson
'CITY OF SIGHS': THE POETRY OF JOHN SHAW NEILSON LAUR.IE CLANCY read through the body ofNeilson's poetry-and to read the autobiography and correspondence on top of that - and then to tum to criticism of it is, in my own case at any rate, enormously irritating. The problem begins as early as H. M. lloGreen in his pioneering History of Australian Literature. In the ten pages that he devotes to Neilson's work in the first volume of that book (two less than Hugh McCrae receives), he says, among other things, 'Neilson is in fact a mystic, perhaps the most notable of all Australia's mystic poets: that he is not a mystic merely, that he did not call himself a mystic, and that he may very likely have known nothing about mysticism is nothing to the point' (483). Neilson, as it were, has mysticism thrust upon him. He goes on, 'The range ofNeilson 's verse is narrow. He wrote three kinds ofpoem', we are told (486), the purely lyrical, the ballad-like, and the satirical. Green strongly implies that it was necessary for A. G. Stephens to help knock the poems into shape and he goes on to say, 'and, since on the one hand he lacks the balladists' matter, and on the other hand his contemplation is mainly emotional, for as a rule he does not so much think as perceive and feel, his verses are apt quickly to run thin ...he cannot develop a theme or a thought or an emotion' (488). Green was writing many years ago, of course, but it is interesting that in the revised edition of his book his widow, the late Dorothy Green, sees it unnecessary to add very much to this judgment: ' Witnesses o[Sp ring, consisting ofpreviously unpublished poems of Neilson's, does not add much to one's assessment of his achievement, though it contains several interesting poems' (491).
