  • Ghosts of Ned Kelly: Peter Carey’S True History and the Myths That Haunt Us
    Ghosts of Ned Kelly: Peter Carey’s True History and the myths that haunt us Marija Pericic Master of Arts School of Communication and Cultural Studies Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne November 2011 Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts (by Thesis Only). Abstract Ned Kelly has been an emblem of Australian national identity for over 130 years. This thesis examines Peter Carey’s reimagination of the Kelly myth in True History of the Kelly Gang (2000). It considers our continued investment in Ned Kelly and what our interpretations of him reveal about Australian identity. The paper explores how Carey’s departure from the traditional Kelly reveals the underlying anxieties about Australianness and masculinity that existed at the time of the novel’s publication, a time during which Australia was reassessing its colonial history. The first chapter of the paper examines True History’s complication of cultural memory. It argues that by problematising Kelly’s Irish cultural memory, our own cultural memory of Kelly is similarly challenged. The second chapter examines Carey’s construction of Kelly’s Irishness more deeply. It argues that Carey’s Kelly is not the emblem of politicised Irishness based on resistance to imperial Britain common to Kelly narratives. Instead, he is less politically aware and also claims a transnational identity. The third chapter explores how Carey’s Kelly diverges from key aspects of the Australian heroic ideal he is used to represent: hetero-masculinity, mateship and heroic failure. Carey’s most striking divergence comes from his unsettling of gender and sexual codes.

  • Representing Judges
    A Brush with the Law: Visual Representations of Sir Redmond Barry and the Trial of Ned Kelly Structure • Aim: compare and contrast official and unofficial images of the same judge and explore themes of judgment contained in the artworks. • 1. How is Barry portrayed in artworks that are not connected with the Ned Kelly trial? • 2. The Ned Kelly Story • 3. How is Barry Portrayed in images of the Ned Kelly story? Does the portrayal of Barry change overtime? • 4. Impact of the Ned Kelly story on pro-Barry images • 5. Has Barry been misjudged? Questioning the underpinnings of anti-Barry images 1. How is Judge Barry portrayed in artworks that are not connected with the Ned Kelly trial? The courthouse portraits will ‘hang there in like manner as the portraits of many of the sages of the law are held in the Courts at Guildhall.’ When Victoria built a grand courthouse in 1884, there was an ‘attempt to create an Australian pantheon of similar legal sages.’ Sage: a person of wise judgment Barry as a ‘sage of the law’. The sitter is a mannequin clothed in the signs and symbols of wise judgment: • Facial expression – impartial, even tempered, even handed • Powerful stance and physical presence – represents law’s power, majesty and strength • The new courthouse – civilization builder • ‘Stately’ full length standing portrait (not sitting) - strength of character and managerial abilities • Judicial Clothing - uniformity; authority, pro British • The judicial chair - judicial lineage, continuity, consistency; the constancy and natural growth of the common law. There was a refashioning of the judicial image in the pre- federation era – portraits became more ‘stately’ and strength of character / managerial abilities were virtues being portrayed.

  • Ned Kelly's Last Words: “Ah, Well, I Suppose”
    Ned Kelly’s Last Words: “Ah, Well, I Suppose” Dr. Stuart E. Dawson ∗ (Monash University) Abstract: It has long been widely, even admiringly, held that Ned Kelly’s last words before execution were “Such is life”. This is a key part of a prevalent Kelly mythology that has been subject to little serious critique. Yet the attribution of the phrase ‘Such is life’ to Kelly is pure fiction. Analysis of the reportage of the day reveals Kelly’s actual last words, and explains how they were transmuted by one journalist into the catchy expression quoted as fact by many historians. It shows that the image of Kelly standing tall and defiant, saying ‘Such is life’ as the rope was placed around his neck, is nothing but a highly romanticised myth. In fact, Kelly came to an ignominious, mumbling end on the scaffold, a far cry from popular legend. Keywords: Ned Kelly, Edward Kelly, Kelly Gang, Ned Kelly facts, Ned Kelly bushranger, Ned Kelly museum, Old Melbourne Gaol, famous last words. It has long been widely, even admiringly, held that Ned Kelly’s last words before execution were “Such is life”. 1 To television producer, Paul Terry, “the fatalistic and courageous ‘Such is life’ has become synonymous with Ned and everything he stood for”. 2 The claim has been relayed in Australian history texts and is commonly taught as fact to school children. 3 In Peter Carey’s Booker Prize-winning novel True History of the ∗ I wish to thank Sharon Hollingsworth for her valuable input and detailed discussion throughout the writing of this article, and Caroline Oxley of the Victoria Police Museum for copies of several historic documents.
