1 Mamboing Matilda : Surf-lifestyle T-shirts and Representations of Australian Cultural Identity Federico Boni , 2009 single work criticism
— Appears in: Imagined Australia : Reflections around the Reciprocal Construction of Identity between Australia and Europe 2009; (p. 201-213)
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)
