Extractions: Australian literature began soon after the establishment of the country by Europeans . Early popular works tended to be of the 'ripping yarn' variety, telling tales of derring-do against the new frontier of the Australian outback . Writers such as Rolf Boldrewood Marcus Clarke and Joseph Furphy embodied these stirring ideals in their tales and, particularly the latter, tried to accurately record the vernacular language of the common Australian . These novelists also give valuable insights into the penal colonies which helped form the country and also the early rural settlements. The transportation of prisoners, emigration to this once remote nation and the persecution and prejudice suffered by its indigenous peoples all contribute to a sense of alienation and exile which can be seen to run through at least the early writings of Australia.

Extractions: This course introduces some major themes of Australian literature, examining a variety of literary works produced from the end of the nineteenth century right up until the present. These works will be read in the context of the 'invasion' of Aboriginal land and its aftermath, exploring the complex and changing relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultures in Australia. Areas of focus include the representation of Aboriginality in non-Aboriginal writing, Indigenous writing in English, and the 'invention' of Australian history. This course will introduce students to a sample of texts from Australian literature with an emphasis on twentieth century works, and those by or about Indigenous peoples of Australia. It will: develop skills of reading, writing and analysis; encourage debate about current theoretical discourse, particularly that of postcolonial literary studies; foster awareness of the politics of representation in Australian writing.

Extractions: search site about us contact us join us events ... full.text Researching Australian children's literature [notify a friend] Maurice Saxby Bibliographical help was also meagre. Morris Miller's two-volume bibliography of Australian literature (1940) listed only the works of some of the better known children's writers of the period, for example, Ethel Pedley. Macartney's edition extended to 1950 (1956) was helpful, but eliminated most of the references to children's books. Green's two-volume history of Australian literature (1961) included brief comments about major writers such as Ethel Turner and her daughter, Jean Curlewis. A sketch map of the area was to appear in 1963 with the publication of Rosemary Wighton's Early Australian children's literature in the Lansdowne series Australian writers and their work . There was little else of help in my research. In 1996 I was to revisit the same period of Australian children's literature - the one hundred years following the appearance in 1841 of A mother's offering to her children , the first children's book to be written and published in Australia. Two years later I began research into the following thirty years 1941 to 1971. Sources and resources are now plentiful. The growth of popular and academic interest in our children's literature has burgeoned, until today it has become both an economic and literary industry. Specialist collections are now available, although there is a need for a union catalogue of holdings. Marcie Muir's two-volume bibliography was published in 1992; and numerous academic papers and publications have proliferated, along with the growth of organisations committed to providing ready access to information by researchers, teachers, students, parents and children themselves.
