AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The peripatetic Methodist missionary Annie Lock worked with around a dozen Aboriginal communities across three Australian states and the Northern Territory from the 1900s to the 1930s. A historical biography by Catherine Bishop draws on the travelogue form to describe these places, landscapes and cultures, as well as the benefits and damage connected with cultural exchange. Bishop’s biography is the study of an ordinary individual who has previously had only a cameo role in academic histories.' (Introduction)

    'We write this editorial in the wake of the Australian referendum to establish an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament. The “no” outcome brings a momentous and emotional end to the year. It signals ongoing turbulence in our national space and a continued deferral of the truth-telling process this country so sorely needs. It suggests, however, that there is meaningful work to be done by scholars of Australian studies, to reckon with the referendum and its many wide-ranging implications.' (Brigid Magner and Emily Potter : Editorial introduction)
