BENNETT The children of indigenous women and US servicemen, World War II & ANGELA WANHALLA EDITORS Like a human tsunami, World War II brought two million American servicemen to the South Pacific where they left a human legacy of some thousands of children. Mothers’ Darlings of the South Pacific traces some of the intimate relationships that developed between US servicemen and indigenous women in the major US bases from Bora Bora in the east to the Solomon Islands in the west, and from the Gilbert Islands in the north to New Zealand. The American military applied US immigration law based on race to prevent marriage ‘across the colour line’. For indigenous women and their American servicemen sweethearts, legal marriage was impossible, resulting in a generation of children known as ‘GI babies’. Mothers’ Darlings traces these children’s stories of loss, emotion, longing and identity, and of lives lived in the shadow of global war. The writers interviewed many of the children of the Americans and some of the few surviving mothers, as well as others who recalled the wartime presence in their islands. Oral histories reveal what the records of colonial governments and the military largely have ignored, providing a perspective on the effects of the US occupation that until now has been disregarded by historians of the Pacific war. JUDITH BENNETT is a professor of history at the University of Otago. Her research interests are Pacific history, environmental history and Australia’s and New Zealand’s relations with the Pacific Islands. With Tim Bayliss-Smith, Judy editedAn Otago Storeman in Solomon Islands: The diary of William Crossan, copra trader, 1885–86 (ANU, 2012).

NEW BOOKS I 3 DIANA NOONAN WOMEN OF THE CATLINS & CRIS ANTONA Life in the deep south A haunting, off-the-beaten-track destination, the little-known Catlins region of New Zealand is as mysterious today as it ever was. In this first in-depth look at the lives of its inhabitants, award-winning writer Diana Noonan and photographer Cris Antona collaborate to capture the thoughts and feelings of 26 women from this remote outpost.

These collections are representative not only of technologies or belief systems but of indigenous cultures at the formative stages of their modern histories, and exemplify Islanders’ institutions, cosmologies and social relationships. Recently, scholars from the Pacific and further afield, working with Pacific artefacts at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in Cambridge (MAA), have set out to challenge and rethink some longstanding assumptions on their significance. The Cook voyage collection at the MAA is among the four or five most important in the world, containing over 200 of the 2000-odd objects with Cook voyage provenance that are dispersed throughout the world. The collection includes some 100 artefacts dating from Cook’s first voyage. This stunning book catalogues this collection, and its cutting-edge scholarship sheds new light on the significance of many artefacts of encounter. NICHOLAS THOMAS is Director of the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, University of Cambridge. He has written extensively on art, empire and related themes, In print and curated exhibitions in Australia, New Zealand and the UK, many in collaboration with jacketed hardback, full colour contemporary artists. His early book, Entangled Objects (1991), influentially contributed to 285 x 250 mm, 348 pp a revival of material culture studies. He went on to publish, among other works, Oceanic Art ISBN 978-1-877578-69-4, $70 (1995) in the Thames and Hudson World of Art series and Islanders: The Pacific in the Age of Empire (2010), which was awarded the Wolfson History Prize. Photographs by GWIL OWEN NEW BOOKS I 7 DAVID ELLIOT SNARK Being a true history of the expedition that discovered the AFTER LEWIS CARROLL Snark and the Jabberwock … and its tragic aftermath Gabriel Clutch was a thief and a liar but he was right about one thing. He told me he had a great secret in his collection that would shake the literary world to its roots if it ever got out … So begins the delightfully dark Snark, a tumultous romp through worlds created by Lewis Carroll and here brought to life through the vivid imaginings and fabulous art of award- winning author and illustrator David Elliot. What exactly did happen to the Snark expedition? Did his dagger-proof coat protect the Beaver from the Butcher? What befell the Boots in the Tulgey Wood? Who fell foul of the Jabberwock? The Bandersnatch? The Jub-Jub Bird? And, finally, the big question: what precisely is a SNARK …? David Elliot’s hero, the Boots, here reveals the whole truth for the first time, from his recruitment to the Snark expedition, to his return from a journey of unimaginable, death- defying adventure ... In this charming book for grown-up children of all ages, David Elliot is at his spellbinding and artistic best. November 2016 DAVID ELLIOT is an author and illustrator of children’s books, based in Port Chalmers, Jacketed hardback, full colour Dunedin. He has won many awards for his work, including New Zealand Post Children’s Book 285 x 250 mm, 208 pp of the Year in 2011 (with Margaret Mahy) for The Moon & Farmer McPhee.

  • Storylines Margaret Mahy Medal Lecture 2020
    Storylines Margaret Mahy Medal Lecture 2020 Presented online 6 September 2020 Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, bula, talofa, fakalofa lahi aut, kia orana, malo e lelei. You might be looking at what I’m wearing and wondering why I’m dressed in Victorian clothes. This outfit came about when the Scholastic team, illustrator Marco Ivancic and I were thinking of ideas for the front cover of a book we were working on. Marco drew a rough of how the main character should stand but it wasn’t quite the posture we were looking for. So, I threw on a long skirt and asked my husband to take a photo of me holding a pen in my hand. Penny Scown from Scholastic had the same idea and did a similar pose, which helped Marco draw the hand from different angles. It gave me the idea to dress like the main character at the book launch. My good friend Mary Kelleher made the outfit and here is Penny Scown and myself at the book launch of… have you guessed it?… Kate Sheppard. The reason I’ve worn it today is to show you the lengths I go to, to make my stories real for children. I’m not the only author who does – you might have seen Fifi Colston or Gareth Ward dressed in their steampunk costumes, and there are others. I write non-fiction books about historical events, famous people, and our wildlife in a creative way. Part of that is bringing it alive, whether it’s dressing the part or getting kids to act it out with me – or using props.

  • Ka Mate Ka Ora: a New Zealand Journal of Poetry and Poetics
    ka mate ka ora: a new zealand journal of poetry and poetics Issue 4 September 2007 Poetry at Auckland University Press Elizabeth Caffin Weathers on this shore want sorts of words. (Kendrick Smithyman, ‘Site’) Auckland University Press might never have been a publisher of poetry were it not for Kendrick Smithyman. It was his decision. As Dennis McEldowney recalls, a letter from Smithyman on 31 March 1967 offering the manuscript of Flying to Palmerston, pointed out that ‘it is to the university presses the responsibility is falling for publishing poetry. Pigheaded and inclined to the parish pump, I would rather have it appear in New Zealand if it appears anywhere’.1 Dennis, who became Editor of University Publications in 1966 and in the next two decades created a small but perfectly formed university press, claimed he lacked confidence in judging poetry. But Kendrick and C. K. Stead, poets and academics both, became his advisors and he very quickly established an impressive list. At its core were the great New Zealand modernist poets. Dennis published five books by Smithyman, three by Stead and three by Curnow starting with the marvellous An Incorrigible Music in 1979.2 Curnow and Smithyman were not young and had published extensively elsewhere but most would agree that their greatest work was written in their later years; and AUP published it. Soon a further group of established poets was added: three books by Elizabeth Smither, one by Albert Wendt, one by Kevin Ireland. And then a new generation, the exuberant poets of the 1960s and 1970s such as Ian Wedde (four books), Bill Manhire, Bob Orr, Keri Hulme, Graham Lindsay, Michael Harlow.
