AbstractHistoryArchive Description
This chapter explores how the many dimensions of Australian national identity, ‘so strongly rooted in the popular culture and representations of a country, function as a set of several signifiers for the narratives of Australianness and for the meanings of ‘being Australian’(Elder 2007)’. It also explores ‘the way an Australian surf lifestyle brand, Mambo, conveys images and representations of Australianness…’ (202)
Notes
-
This chapter deals principally with representations of Australian national identity and the ‘Mambo’ fashion brand though it does make reference to some Australian literature.
