The Flash of Recognition
The Flash of Recognition: Photography and the Emergence of Indigenous Rights." Journal of Australian Studies, 37(4), pp. 547–548
Honour the Single Soul
In this essay, both an obituary and a critical overview of Stowâ s work, Leer aims to â honour the single soul who was Randolph Stowâ and explore how the idea of the single soul informs his writingâ (p.2)
This Country is My Mind’
Examines the â notion of place in Murrayâ s work, the complex nature of Bunyah as a â centre of the worldâ , and how a poetics of place is established and develops from the earliest collectionsâ (p.16)
Jan Nordby Gretlund's 'Eudora Welty's Aesthetics of Place
Contour-Line by Contour’
Within the sequence of The Idyll Wheel (1989) Les Murray brought to a close the mythic journey of 'home-coming', which had sustained much of his best work over two decades. This journey of return to what the French poet Yves Bonnefoy called l'arrfere-pays, and Murray in a translation of the equivalent Aboriginal term came to see as his spirit country, developed a number of generic characteristics over the years from 'Noonday Axeman' to 'The Retur…
Mal du Pays
The refrain of Randolph Stow's 'Outrider' echoes throughout his work as a central, counterpointed theme. Like a descant moving further and further away from its emotional and geographic base, the principal literary consciousness finds itself in a spatial estrangement from its remembered world, which floods the inner ear with a dissonant 'grievous music' played upon the heartstrings. I wish in the following to dwell upon some implications of this …
Imagined Counterpart
Australian literature has been more diligent in literally, metaphorically and self-consciously mapping the continent than almost any other old or emerging national literature. There seems to be on the one hand an archetypal simplicity, on the other a complex mystique in the appearance of that plump, pointed silhouette. With no boundaries except the sea and thus separate from the rest of the world, Australia as a map of the imagination seems someh…
At the Edge
Discussing the maps, geographical images and geometric figures that abound in Malouf's work, Leer argues that geography provides Malouf with tropes through which to explore the Self: the subconscious and the conscious, imagination and memory
