Funded Activity Summary

A History of the Uses of Imagination and Authority in Australia, 1870-1919. This project is designed as the third and final stage of a process of connected research on the subject of European settlement in Australia. The work will focus especially on themes of oral and literary communication and the resulting sense of place and community. Prevailing attitudes to and uses of authority will be a central theme. The project will also draw together much recent work on the period leading up to the federation of the Australian colonies, federation itself and World War One and in the process will explore continuities with earlier periods of Australian history.
