AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Lorna Lippmann was a tireless advocate for Aboriginal rights to self-determination. Her commitment was underpinned by, in her own words, humanistic values of justice and concern for those less privileged. Lorna was formidable, even intimidating, because her priorities were so clear-cut. She was petite, elegantly dressed and wasted nothing on trivialities or unnecessary explanations. A huge intellect cloaked in elegance and charm was how one person described her.' (Introduction)

    'In this issue of Australian Aboriginal Studies we present a diversity of articles. Michael Rowland considers the revival of the caricature of the ‘noble savage’— or ‘ecologically noble savage’ existing in harmony with nature—that he has identified in some recent publications on environmental issues, and discusses negative implications of the concept. In doing so, he faces the possibility that such a critique might be seen as an attack on indigeneity, but is bolstered by the observation that his criticisms are shared by some Indigenous Australian scholars.'  (Editorial introduction)
