AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In Archipelagos of Sense: Thinking About a Decolonised Australian Poetics, Peter Minter expands on Les Murray's line that 'the whole world is an archipelago', proffering an archipelagic sensibility where 'locations on the surface of the planet can be understood as earthly temporal and spatial archipelagos'...(Vickery and Alizadeh, 18)

Notes

  • Epigraph:

    With modern transport, everywhere you go

    the whole world is an archipelago,

    each place an island in a void of travel.

    Les Murray 'Kimberley Brief'
