Extractions: The University of Sydney News - 27 July 2000 By David Brooks Judith Wright and A.D. Hope, perhaps the major Australian poets of the twentieth century and two of the University of Sydney's most illustrious former students, died in Canberra recently within three weeks of one another, Judith Wright on 26 June at the age of 85, and A.D. (Alec Derwent) Hope on 13 July aged 92. Each, in an active writing career spanning more than five decades, made a consistent and significant contribution to Australian culture. Hope had long enjoyed an international reputation as one of the finest poets of his time, and with the death of Wright it has been said that Australia's conscience has lost its most powerful and eloquent voice. Hope studied English, Philosophy and Psychology at the University from 1924 to 1927. His teacher-mentors included John Anderson and Professors Holme and Le Gay Brereton. In 1928, with the University Medal in Philosophy, he went to Oxford where his teachers included J.R.R. Tolkien, C.T. Onions and C.S. Lewis and fellow students the poet Stephen Spender (W.H. Auden had left only weeks before Hope arrived) and Guy Howarth, who would subsequently lecture in English at the University of Sydney, and found the journal Southerly Left: A.D. Hope aged 20, before leaving for Oxford (photo courtesy of the National Library of Australia)

Extractions: News Releases This year News archive ABA Update ... Conferences There are very sound economic arguments for maintaining the protection of Australian made programmes for television, the Chairman of the Australian Broadcasting Authority, Professor David Flint, said today. Referring to government assistance to the Australian film industry announced recently by the Minister for Communications, the Information Economy and the Arts, Senator Alston, he said, 'There is no doubt as to the dominance of the United States in the export of television programmes. She has 75 per cent of the market. Foreign markets make up one half of all sales by US producers. And entertainment is a significant export industry for the United States, second only to aerospace.' Professor Flint was addressing a Communications and Media Law Association luncheon seminar in Sydney.

Extractions: A UT professor who has written a novel on Australian culture will speak and sign copies of his book at 7 p.m. today at Davis-Kidd Booksellers. Dr. Patrick Brady, who holds the Chair of Excellence in French Literature, recently completed his novel entitled Guruwari: A Dreaming of the Australian Outback. In his novel, Brady presents the story of his birthplace, Broken Hill, Australia, where the largest lode of silver was discovered in 1883. Although Brady includes a tremendous amount of documentation, his novel does not resemble an anthropology book. Instead, Brady tells the story of how the white settlers invaded the Australian aborigines' land through a host of fictional characters. Brady said his novel is unique because it focuses on the aborigines' culture. He said Australian novels like The Thorn Birds neglect to present "an evocation of aborigine culture before it was affected by the whites." "I've tried to show the value of [the aborigines'] culture," he said.

http://www.austemb.org.cn/Culture1.htm

Extractions: Australia is a nation built by people from many different backgrounds. It is a tolerant and inclusive society, and cultural diversity has become a touchstone of its national identity. Australian culture therefore reflects the multicultural nature of Australia. The indigenous heritage, the history of British colonisation and the values of a democratic society that accepts immigrants from all over the world, combine with a continuing openness to international influences and a taste for competition and controversy in the arts. Australian music, dance, theatre, art, and literature have become internationally renown. Australian films, in particular, have made great strides internationally. Films like The Truman Show, Shine, Babe, Muriel's Wedding, My Best Friend's Wedding, Strictly Ballroom, Romeo and Juliet, and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert to name a few, were all directed by Australian directors.

Extractions: It is simply true. We are like no other tribe on earth and it all began back in the early to mid eighteen hundreds and was concreted into place during the eighteen nineties. Why then? Well that was the time Australia decided to cast off England and become it's own independent nation. A group of prominent citizens were assembled and given the task literally to create the worlds best democracy by cheating from all existing democracies. These characters travelled the world looking at Constitutions and more particularly how they worked in practice. To cut a long story short the decision was made that the Courts or Judiciary would be powerless, the leader would not be elected by the people and certainly no one was born to rule. In addition no one was to have power alone and perhaps the best part of the Constitution is that by comparison it is "loosely worded" and recognises that what we call "Convention" can override the document and does. That fact takes into account changing circumstances that would require an alteration to most constitutions but not to ours. But the change has to be obvious, common sense and not in the least controversial. The final Arbiter of that is the High Court of Australia, like all courts completely autonomous of Government.

Extractions: Lesson Design: This lesson will be done in two separate parts. In the first part, the whole class will be asked what they know about life in Australia and what they would like to know about life in that nation. All answers will be recorded on a sheet of butcher paper. The class will then develop two or three questions that will be e-mailed to a same-age class in Australia. The answers will be received at the end of the week. At the same time, the students will answer questions sent by their "electronic pen pals" from Australia. In the second part, the class will work in groups of three or four students. The groups will visit three Internet sites that deal with the Aboriginal culture. They will visit the Australian National Botanic Garden site (http://osprey.erin.gov.au/anbg/aboriginal-trail.html) to find out how the Aborigines used plants native to Australia. The students will also visit 2 other sites (http://www.ciolek.com/WWWVL-Aboriginal.html; http://mirrors.org.sg/victorian/australia/aboriginal.html) to find information on the culture of the Aborigines. Answers will be recorded onto worksheets and shared with the whole class.
