Paddy', the Sydney Street Poet
The extensive literature of broadside ballads in English generally agrees that this form of verse and song has been virtually extinct since the beginning of the twentieth century. The reverse position is the correct one for Australia. There were several street balladists to be found in Melbourne and Sydney, at least, and this article claims premier position for the local and, for the time, topical verses of Patrick Francis Collins. 'Paddy'wrote m…
Farewell to Judges and Juries
Lost in the streets
Maccabees, Books of
This entry consists of three articles. The first covers the deuterocanonical books of 1 and 2 Maccabees, while the second and third cover the books of 3 Maccabees and √ Maccabees, respectively. First and Second Maccabees Two writings of the Christian apocrypha recounting the exploits of Judas Macca
A Neglected Musical Instrument
When I first thought about writing this article, I simply accepted the received wisdom that the Jew's harp was the once universal musical instrument that had been discarded. It was as recently as November 1989, while in Washington DC, that I discovered the Jew's harp is alive and fairly well, although it may never regain the heights of popularity it achieved in the nineteenth century
Inquiry into Folklife in Australia
Because I had trained myself to fill every possible spare minute writing at my desk after my normal working hours as a school principal, when I retired I just went on busily writing books in the daytime rather than late at night, taking a small part in the organization of Australian writers, and travelling regularly overseas to China, and, if anything, was far more relaxed although perhaps less productive than before. My simple aim, I thought, wa…
Ballades of Old Bohemia
Frank the Poet
Larrikin Crook
A Checklist of the Poems of Robert D. FitzGerald, 1917-1965
The Composition of *Geoffry Hamlyn
Brian Elliott's article, 'The Composition of Geoffry Hamlyn: The Legend and the Facts', (Australian Literary Studies, vol. 3, no. 3, May 1968) has sufficiently stirred me to re-read the novel, after many years neglect on my part. With a good deal of inspired guess-work I believe it would be possible to identify some of Kingsley's characters with early settlers in that area now largely designated the Shire of Ripon. Without much guessing at all, b…

Anderson reviews a recent bibliography of Judith Wright compiled by the Libraries Board of South Australia, and lists some omissions
