  • The Patrician and the Bloke: Geoffrey Serle and the Making of Australian History
    128 New Zealand Journal of History, 42, 1 (2008) The Patrician and the Bloke: Geoffrey Serle and the Making of Australian History. By John Thompson. Pandanus Books, Canberra, 2006. xix, 383pp. Australian price: $34.95. ISBN 1-74076-152-9. THE LIKELY INTEREST FOR READERS OF THIS JOURNAL in this book is that Geoffrey Serle (1922–1998) helped to pioneer Australian historiography in much the way that Keith Sinclair prompted and promoted a ‘nationalist’ New Zealand historiography. Rather than submitting to the cultural cringe and seeing their respective countries’ pasts in imperial and British contexts, Serle and Sinclair treated them as histories in their own right. Brought up in Melbourne, Serle was a Rhodes Scholar who returned to the University of Melbourne in 1950 to teach Australian history following the departure of Manning Clark to Canberra University College. The flamboyant Clark is generally seen as the father of Australian historiography and Serle has been somewhat cast in his shadow. Yet Serle’s contribution to Australian historiography was arguably more solid. As well as undergraduate teaching, postgraduate supervision and his writing there was the institutional work: his efforts on behalf of the proper preservation and administration of public archives, his support of libraries and art galleries, the long-term editorship of Historical Studies (1955–1963), and co-editorship then sole editorship of the Australian Dictionary of Biography (1975–1988). Clark was a creative spirit, turbulent and in the public gaze. The unassuming Serle was far more oriented towards the discipline. The book’s title derives from ‘the streak of elitism in Geoffrey Serle sitting in apparent contradiction with himself as “ordinary” Australian, easygoing, democratic, laconic’ (p.9, see also p.303, n.40).

  • Serle Austerica Unlimited
    GODZONE: 6) AUSTERICA UNLIMITED? GEOFFREY SERLE WE HAVE COME a long way in the last thirty years, Growing up in the 19305 . Loyalty to Empire was still the un­ challengeable emphasis of school and society. History was English and Imperial History, a little European; Australia (and America) were only mentioned as part of the imperial story. English was entirely English literature, of course. (And at home we read Pooh BeaT~ Peter Pan and Alice, Kipling, Rider Haggard and G. A. Henty, Chums, the Boys' Own Paper, Champion and Magnet.) The newspapers were still chock-Cull of English and European news. On Anzac Day fire-eating generals would indeed tell us that Australia became a nation at Gallipoli, but went on to dwell on the glories of the Empire of which Australia was only a subordi­ nate part and the inherent superiority of the Britisher over any other 'race'. (At the famous Presbyterian Scottish academy which I attended, the high· spot of the Anzac Day ceremony-can I be remembering oorrectly?-was the song 'For England' written in 1914-'England, Oh England, and how could I stay?). The blurred double loyally characterized the great majority of Australians: at the State schools it was laid down that the flag to be saluted on Monday mornings could be either the Australian or the Union Jack. But while many Australians, especially those of working-class or Irish origin, had developed a limited sense of Aus­ tralianness, ruling orthodoxy between the wars-partly in reaction to recognition of incipient subversive nationalism-put all the stress on Empire; there may have been more coherent and systematic indoctrina­ tion in the schools in this period than at any other time in Australian history.

Downloaded from VU Research Repository https://vuir.vu.edu.au/19397/ 1 A HISTORY OF MANNING CLARK (cover story, The National Times, week ending 2 June 1978, pp. 18-23) THE MAKING OF MANNING CLARK By ROB PASCOE Early one morning in November, 1938, a 23-year-old history student got out of the train at Bonn Railway Station. Manning Clark was fresh out of the University of Melbourne, full of socialist and Freudian ideas about what was wrong with the world and how it should be improved. The night before he alighted at that station roving gangs of Nazi stormtroopers had smashed up every Jewish business house in Bonn and elsewhere in Germany. Clark made his way amid the debris throughout Bonn in a state of disbelief. “That was the beginning of an awakening”, he recalled recently. “That was the moment when I realised that I would have to start to think again about the whole human situation.” Clark was born the second son of an Anglican clergyman in Sydney in March 1915. His parents named him Charles Manning Hope Clark, a resounding enough emblem of this ecclesiastical background. An uncle and an older brother followed this clerical tradition, but Clark decided at a young age that God’s emissaries in Australia had either misunderstood the religious needs of the people or were misrepresenting what there was to know and preach about man, his relations with others, and nature.

  • Glimpses of John Curtin Public Lecture by JCPML Visiting Scholar Dr Geoffrey Serle AO on 14 August 1997
    Curtin University Glimpses of John Curtin Public lecture by JCPML Visiting Scholar Dr Geoffrey Serle AO on 14 August 1997. Copyright: JCPML 1997. JCPML00231 It is an honour to meet you as the first [JCPML Visiting Scholar]. I must briefly indicate what I am doing. There is no very satisfying full biography of Curtin; Lloyd Ross’s is the standard work in print, but while he was a distinguished Labor man and there is much to be said for his general treatment of Curtin, he always had difficulty in putting a book together convincingly. Someone should be found sooner or later to tackle another full biography. A book on Curtin’s Western Australian years 1917- 1934 needs to be done. David Black’s In His Own Words, a gathering of excerpts from his writings and speeches, is very useful indeed. My entry in the Dictionary of Biography of 6500 words is necessarily crammed and concise. I suggested to the [John Curtin Prime Ministerial] Library that I build it up to 15,000 words or more to make a largish pamphlet, priced at no more than $10 which might sell well to the general public and to the Labor Party. A simpler version would probably be necessary for schools. I am here to work on the new material it has gathered, and intend to have my little biography finished by October for production before the formal opening of the Library. I shall not now give you a routine treatment of Curtin, but rather glimpses of his life including a few points on which I may have novel stresses to make.

  • The Development of Australian Infantry on the Western Front 1916-1918: an Imperial Model of Training, Tactics and Technology
    The Development of Australian Infantry on the Western Front 1916-1918: An Imperial model of training, tactics and technology Lewis Frederickson A thesis in fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities and Social Sciences UNSW Canberra 28 August 2015 i THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname: Frederickson First Name: Lewis Other Name: Charles Abbreviation for degree as given in the University Calendar: PhD School: Humanities and Social Sciences Faculty: History Title: The development of Australian infantry on the Western Front 1916-1918 Abstract The Anzac myth enshrines a popular history of Australian superiority on the battlefields of the Great War. Australian infantrymen were superior because Australia was a frontier nation whose people possessed independent initiative, resourcefulness, and moral and physical courage. These qualities were transferred straight into the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). This thesis makes a critical examination of the myth. It details how Australian infantry on the Western Front developed into a highly disciplined and professional element of the wider British Army in the period from 1916-1918. This occurred through standardised training and tactics, hard earned operational experience, and with technically enabled mastery. After Gallipoli, Australia was a relative latecomer to Europe, and arrived in mid-1916. The force experienced comparable losses to the British Army on the Somme, becoming a benefactor of the British learning process. Contrary to the Anzac myth, the five Australian divisions on the Western Front only realised their potential in 1918 when they were amalgamated into a corps. In this thesis, Chapter 1 provides a historiography of the Australian infantry's experience on the Western Front in comparison to a similar sized formation, the Canadian Corps.
