  • Report on the Inquiry Into the Australian Film and Television Industry
    The Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia Report on the inquiry into the Australian film and television industry House of Representatives Standing Committee on Communications and the Arts December 2017 Canberra © Commonwealth of Australia 2017 ISBN 978-1-74366-715-6 (Printed version) ISBN 978-1-74366-716-3 (HTML version) This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial- NoDerivs 3.0 Australia License. The details of this licence are available on the Creative Commons website: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/au/. Chair’s foreword The Australian film and television industry plays an important role in telling the stories that help to foster our cultural identity and also makes a significant economic contribution to the nation. There are however significant technological changes and other issues impacting on its future growth and sustainability. On-demand platforms such as Amazon and Netflix have transformed the way Australians access their screen content. Cinema and television are no longer as dominant due to this audience disruption although they remain an important part of this industry. This inquiry was a timely examination of the policy settings that underpin our domestic screen industry including tax incentives and Australian content quotas. Direct funding by Screen Australia, international co-production treaties, and the foreign actor certification scheme were also reviewed. The committee has made 13 recommendations to government to help secure the future growth and sustainability of Australia’s screen industry. Tax offsets The current tax incentives for film and television were devised 10 years ago and include the producer, location and post, digital and visual effects (PDV) offsets.

  • The Myth of Certainty and the Matrix of Uncertainty: Five Contemporary Australian Novels Confront History
    The Myth of Certainty and the Matrix of Uncertainty: Five Contemporary Australian Novels Confront History by Charles Scott Nesbitt A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 7, 2021 Keywords: Historiographic Metafiction, British Literature, Contemporary British and Antipodean Novels, Australia, Postmodernism, Postcolonialism Copyright 2021 by Charles Scott Nesbitt Approved by Dr. Jon Bolton, Chair, Department of English Dr. Alicia Carroll, Department of English Dr. Ernest L. Gibson III, Department of English Dr. Chris Keirstead, Department of English Dr. Rupali Mishra, Department of History Abstract The intersection of postcolonialism and historiographic metafiction can be seen in novels written over the last several decades by British and Antipodean authors concerning the British colonial era in Australia and its aftermath. Novels from this sub-group of writers of historiographic metafiction fit both Linda Hutcheon’s description of historiographic metafiction and some of the concerns of postcolonial writers and theorists, as they revisit the colonial era and critique or reassess the historiographic writings that helped galvanize pro-colonial perspectives and marginalize and dehumanize the Indigenous communities there. While there is much scholarship on historiographic metafiction and postcolonialism, this volume focuses on the specific nexus of those two concepts and its coalescence in contemporary Australian novels of the colonial and postcolonial experience. The novels covered in this volume—by Peter Carey, Matthew Kneale, Rachel Leary, Richard Flanagan, and Alexis Wright—share an interest in 19th Century Australia, the violence and injustice that were an inescapable part of the foundation of the country during that period, and the potential dubiousness of historical documentation.

As well as eeting children’s literature enthusiasts ro every corner o the world a highlight of an international congress can be meeting up with like- inded people ro one’s own country! It is nearly ten years since Jenni Woodroffe and I met at the 31st IBBY World Congress in Copenhagen in 2008. On a post-Congress excursion to Odense, birthplace o ‘dear Hans’ we discussed our ideas or reinvigorating IBBY Australia, and soon found ourselves in the roles of president and vice-president.

A year later, troubled journalist Martin Scarsden arrives in Riversend to write a feature on the anniversary of the tragedy. But the stories he hears from the locals about the priest and incidents leading up to the shooting don't fit with the accepted version of events his own newspa- per reported in an award-winning investigation. Martin can't ignore his doubts, nor the urgings of some locals to unearth the real reason behind the priest's deadly rampage. Just as Martin believes he is making headway, a shocking new development rocks the town, which becomes the biggest story in Australia. The media descends on Riversend and Martin is now the one in the spotlight. His reasons for investigating the shooting have suddenly become very personal. Wrestling with his own demons, Martin finds himself risking everything to discover a truth that becomes darker and more complex with every twist. But there are powerful forces determined to stop him, and he has no idea how far they will go to make sure the town's secrets stay bur- ied. A compulsive thriller that will haunt you long after you have turned the final page.
