AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Coranderrk: we will show the country is the result of an intensive and fruitful collaboration between University of Melbourne historian Giordano Nanni and the director and playwright Andrea James. Conceived as part of the Australian Research Council–funded ‘Minutes of evidence’ project, it brings to the stage the events of the 1881 Parliamentary Inquiry into the Coranderrk Aboriginal Reserve. The book is, at the same time, a scholarly historical study of the Coranderrk Reserve, a script of the stage production and an examination of the complex creative processes undertaken by the authors during the development of the project.' (Introduction)

    'Welcome to the first edition of Australian Aboriginal Studies for 2015. A new year has brought with it some changes to the journal, with the departure of Jakelin Troy, who has been the Editor for the past three years, and her Assistant Editor, Sally McNicol. To begin, we acknowledge the excellent work of both women. Jaky, who had a long association with AIATSIS in many guises, including most recently as a Director of Research, was the first Aboriginal woman to be general editor of Australian Aboriginal Studies. Readers who are aware of the work and dedication required to publish a journal of this quality will understand the debt we owe Jaky and Sally. We thank them for their work on this and earlier editions.'   (Editorial introduction)
