AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'William Henry Williams: Tasmania’s First Professor of English by Ralph Spaulding is a history of Williams’s institutional life, first as a teacher at two Methodist boys’ schools and then, from 1893, at the University of Tasmania. Spaulding writes of a time in which an academic department usually consisted of a single male professor, who taught a relatively small number of students at all levels via lectures and examination.'

    'For many years, the week scheduled for the annual conference of the Association for the Study of Australian Literature (ASAL) has coincided with NAIDOC (National Aboriginal and Islander Day of Commemoration) Week, the event that celebrates the histories and cultures, and achievements and struggles, of Australia’s First Nations peoples. In 2022, the coincidence of these events was particularly apposite given that the focus of ASAL’s conference was the thirtieth anniversary, and the ongoing legacies on Australian writing, of the 1992 High Court Mabo decision. Over five days in early July 2022, on the Sandy Bay campus of the University of Tasmania (UTas), a program of speakers and papers, including five keynote presentations from First Nations writers and critics, explored the scholarship and analysis of the enduring repercussions of the landmark court case on Australian literary and cultural imaginaries.'
