 In Black Words White Page (2004), his seminal study of Aboriginal cultural production in Australia, Adam Shoemaker notes that ‘when Oodgeroo Noonuccal’s first collection of poetry appeared in print in 1964, a new phase of cultural communication began in Australia’ (2004, p. 5). The ‘new phase’ to which Shoemaker refers pertains to the many plays, collections of poetry and novels by Aboriginal authors published between 1964 and 1988 and directed to Australian and international audiences. Flying under the radar of scholarly attention, Aboriginal authors and artists also prod

Abstract:
Different from many other communities, Australian aboriginal communities had lived separately from the rest of the world without any contact with great civilizations for tens of thousands of years before English men’s invasion of Australian continent. Hence, their socio-economic development standards was backward, which can be clearly seen in their economic activities, material culture, mental culture, social institutions, mode of life, etc. However, in the course of history, Australian aborigines created a grandiose cultural heritage of originality with unique identities of their own in parti

Over 1000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander soldiers fought in WW1, at a time when they had few rights on home soil. While on active duty many of these soldiers received the same conditions and respect as their non-Indigenous counterparts. Yet when they returned it was back to a life of discrimination, and their stories were silenced. In the decades after the war, Indigenous voices were rarely present in the memorialising of the ANZAC legend. For museums trying to commemorate the centenary of WWI the absence of tangible collections relating to Indigenous soldiers presents a challenge. How

Abstract:
The realm of the arts is often viewed as the stronghold in the last line of defence against the enduring colonisation process of the minority Aboriginal populace. It is one of few avenues in Australian society where Aboriginal people can have a voice and fortunately this is partly driven by the influence of the outside international artworld. In more recent years the digital production areas have further enabled the space and recognition for self-determined, culturally specific and diverse sources of creativity, exchange and community building.

Abstract:
Kanyirninpa, or holding, exists as a deeply embedded value amongst desert Aboriginal peoples (Puntu). It is disclosed as authority with nurturance, where older generations assume the responsibility to care for and look after younger people. Kanyirninpa also holds in balance two other key cultural patterns of desert life, autonomy and relatedness. These values are transmitted across generations where they provide desert society with identity, cohesion and strength. While kanyirninpa can be identified in the nurturance provided a child after birth, its presence and power is particularly disclose

In broad terms, this thesis has a two-fold aim. Firstly, it is a study of Aboriginal connectedness to country over a large area of the Australian Western Desert, sufficiently large that it embraces the main country of two recognised desert peoples, the Ngaanyatjarra and the Pintupi. This breadth of coverage enables me to undertake a comparison in respect to certain aspects of culture, social organisation and the relationship to land. There have previously been few detailed studies of these matters in the desert, and none in which two large scale groupings have been able to be compared in this

The aim of this thesis is to interrogate, in the exegesis, and amplify, in the creative work, the conjunctions of literary magical realism and writing place. The exegesis is presented in four chapters that examine some aspects of magical realism, with the main focus on the Latin American strand that has as a main influence Alejo Carpentier’s concept of lo real maravilloso americano (the marvellous place of America). The accompanying novel, Siddon Rock, takes the concept of mythology- and place-centred magical realism and places it in the Australian landscape of a small country town just after

Abstract:
A myth is a narrative. It is a structured, predominantly culture-specific and shared semantic system which is well known among the members of a particular community or society. Such narratives explain the origins of natural and social phenomena and the interrelationship among people, their deities, the universe, and their surrounding environment, thus enabling the members to understand each othen- and to cope with the unknown (Georges 1968:230; Maranda 1972:12-13).

Abstract:
The translation of traditional Western Desert iconography, narrative conventions and ceremonial aesthetics into the medium of acrylic painting, and onto the emergent plane of 'Aboriginal Art', has been among the great artistic achievements of the modern era. Despite the wealth of scholarship dedicated to this phenomenon, key aspects of it remain obscured in anthropological and art historical analysis. Based on fieldwork in the Australian Western Desert community of Balgo, this thesis develops an ethnographic account of how 'Country' is created through abstraction, kin-based processes of transm

Abstract This chapter provides an overview of the volume, the research context for Australian languages, and a summary of the themes that emerge from the papers. Following a description of the five parts of the volume, it describes some of the editorial choices that led to the shaping of the volume’s contents and terminological conventions, including omitted topics. Furthermore. it provides some background to Aboriginal conceptions of language and land and how individuals relate both to Country and to Language, as well as to linguistic terminology typically used in discussing Australian languages. Some discussion is given of the ways that Indigenous authors have described their relationship to language and how language was placed on Country by Dreamtime culture heroes.

Abstract:
Abstract The island continent of Australia is immense-about as large as the contiguous forty-eight United States-and before the arrival of the Europeans, Australia supported an Aboriginal population up to 750,000 people, speaking well over two hundred distinct languages.1 In an area this large, it is not surprising that numerous ecological zones exist, from tropical to temperate forests and from prairies to deserts. Nonetheless, there was great similarity in the cultures of the native Australians.2 Of central importance, Australian Aborigines shared the same basic economic strategy: hunting and gathering. Of course, local variations existed in the types of food eaten and the specific techniques used to obtain their meals, but all of Australia's hunter-gatherers lived in bands and shared food.3 Australian Aborigines believed that they should follow a system of rules, "the Law," that originated from the parthuman, part-animal spiritual beings active during a Dreamtime period of creation.
