Howling Wilderness and Promised Land
This article traces the changing understandings and representations of the Victorian Mallee region in the years 1840–1914. It tracks the multiple ways in which the region was imagined and discussed, paying close attention to how these imaginings were both shaped by and in turn themselves shaped the landscape. We argue that while the Mallee experience became emblematic of the broader Australian struggle with the land and thus the founding narrativ…
Strange in the Cold Blue Light
The first weekly instalment of the Australian Journal, published on 2 September 1865, declared its intention to â reflect the Literature, Art, and Science of Australiaâ . Issued from Melbourne, its inaugural editorial declared that the journal would engage the â ablest Colonial pens of the dayâ , in an ambitious venture that sought to â please everybodyâ . The promise was to â record the phases of Colonial literature; to direct attention to the t…
Love on the Land
This article examines the burgeoning genre of Australian rural romance novels. It argues that rural romance shares significant and defining generic features with romance fiction and other popular literary forms such as the Western and the colonial romance and adventure story, but also reworks conventional forms to address current socio-historical conditions in rural Australia. It does so in the cultural and political contexts of Australia's posit…

Harry Potter's Secret
This article focuses on publishing sensations across time and culture by drawing a line between the publication of M. E. Braddon's Lady Audley's Secret in 1861–2 and J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series (1997–2007). In presenting case studies we draw out similarities in the production, reception and circulation of these texts and highlight their shared writing and reading contexts. We contend that these texts, although they were launched into disc…

Melbournes Sites of Reading
This paper investigates the representations and experiences of white women readers in colonial Melbourne by locating them particularly in two literary sites: the Public Library and Mullen’s Bookshop and Circulating Library. Reading, and the search for reading material, placed colonial women in the street as well as the home, taking them into metropolitan places, libraries, shops and restaurants. The physical presence of female readers challenged …
