AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Editorial praxes cannot obtain the rigor and sharp discipline required of principled methodologies unless they account for what some have viewed as the “messy” facts of authorship, production, and reception: race, class, gender, and sexuality. This special issue of Textual Cultures features essays that focus on the interpretive consequences of any current or past editorial project and the mutual impact of editing and traditional or new historicism, history of the book, or feminist, Marxist, postcolonial, poststructural, multicultural, or queer literary theory or analysis.'

[Review Essay) Robbery Under Arms, Peter Pierce , single work essay
'Robbery Under Arms by the pseudonymous Rolf Boldrewood (Thomas Browne in his life as a police magistrate) is—together with Marcus Clarke's For the Term of His Natural Life—one of the two most famous, and distinguished, of nineteenth-century Australian novels. Clarke dealt luridly with the convict era; Boldrewood with bushrangers. Each book was in part an argument that Australian history afforded material rich enough for romance fiction. Each first appeared as a lengthy serial, Robbery Under Arms in the Sydney Mail between 1 July 1882 and 11 August 1883. Since then it has been sold and read in the hundreds of thousands of copies in abridged editions. With its appearance as a volume in the series The Academy Editions of Australian Literature, the text is much fuller.' (Introduction)
