1 Perspectives on Two Shores : Ireland and Australia in The Quadrivium : A Writer's Approach Annette Nelson , 2000 single work essay
— Appears in: Irish-Australian Studies : Papers Delivered at the Ninth Irish-Australian Conference, Galway, April 1997 2000; (p. 110-121)

The author gives a brief presentation of the historical background of her novel-in-progress, The Quadrivium, and explains how it is used as a vantage point for the creation of character and the development of theme. Views it alongside other literary traditions, both Irish and Australian, and makes some observations on the dimension it gives to the contemporary Irish-Australian experience.
