Panel:
Australian literature in its contexts:
nation, region, globe

Tuesday 28 April, 5pm to 6.30pm

This symposium comprises 4 short papers addressing Australian literature’s mobilities within various networks and audiences. Issues raised include: metropolitan multiculturalism and denationalized space; postcolonial regionalism; worldly elites and international networks; and utopia and disappointment.

He is author and co-author of sixteen books, variously translated into six languages. He is an Australian Professorial Fellow working on the project “Future Thinking: Utopianism in Postcolonial Literatures.”

Anne Brewster’s books include Literary Formations: Postcoloniality, Nationalism, Globalism (1996). Her latest book Giving This Country a Memory (of interviews with and essays on Aboriginal writers) is in press. She is working on an ARC funded project on Violence in Australian Women’s writing with Sue Kossew.

Elizabeth McMahon’s latest book (in press) is Our Island Home: The Shifting Map of Australian Literature. She is a member of the AUSTLIT research group. She has also published widely on the representation of gender and sexuality in Australian writing, and since 2008 she has co-edited Southerly, Australian oldest literary journal.

Brigitta Olubas’ current research centres on an ARC Discovery-funded project on author Shirley Hazzard, and an edition of Hazzard’s non-fiction writings for Columbia University Press.
