Cosmos Magazine and Colonial Femininity
2012
single work
criticism
— Appears in: JASAL , vol. 12 no. 1 2012; 'This article looks at the relatively short and colourful life of Sydney's Cosmos: An Illustrated Australian Magazine—one of the many ephemeral literary magazines that flourished briefly during the colonial era in Australia, and which have been largely forgotten today. From its beginning in September 1894, Cosmos published poetry, short fiction, book reviews, and literary criticism, aiming to offer readers something 'that was purely Australian' as well as providing an important venue for the writings of popular colonial authors such as Louise Mack, Edward Dyson, Ernest Favenc, and many others. This article argues the Cosmos magazine was deeply invested in the development of a distinctively Australian literary culture and that an important focus for accomplishing this was its exploration of metropolitan modes of colonial femininity.' -
As Others See Us : Representations of Australia in the British Press, 1900-1910
2009
single work
criticism
— Appears in: Australian Studies , vol. 1 no. 1 2009;'This paper considers the Australian preoccupation with the national image abroad. It has been argued that nations continually perform their identity for an international audience. By focusing on Australian responses to British reportage on Australia, it is possible to see how Australia's identity was created, debated and defended under the often critical gaze of the British press.
The way in which Australian governments chose to represent Australia in Great Britain was complicated by their frequent attempts to anticipate how the British saw Australia and Australians; as well as attempting to represent not only how Australians and expatriates saw Australia, but to accommodate how they wished Australia to be portrayed in London.'
