1 5 y separately published work icon The Intimate Archive : Journeys through Private Papers Maryanne Dever , Ann Vickery , Sally Newman , Canberra : National Library of Australia , 2009 Z1585821 2009 single work criticism (taught in 1 units)

'Intimate Archives explores the issues involved in using archival material to research the personal lives of public people, in this case of Australian writers Marjorie Barnard (1897-1987), Alieen Palmer (1915-1988) and Lesbia Harford (1891-1927). The book gives an insight into the romantic experiences of the three female writers, based on their private letters, diaries and notebooks held in the National Library of Australia and other public institutions.

Maryanne Dever, Ann Vickery and Sally Newman consider the ethical dilemmas of researching private material and discovering the "truths" revealed within. In this sense, the book is both an introverted contemplation of private affairs and an extroverted meditation on the right to acquire and assume intimate knowledge.' (Publisher's blurb)

1 The Bonds of Friendship : The Demise of 'M. Barnard Eldershaw' Maryanne Dever , 2004 single work criticism
— Appears in: Hecate , vol. 30 no. 2 2004; (p. 129-147) The article examines the development leading to the end of the collaboration between Barnard and Eldershaw and explores elements of tension within the collaboration in an attempt to find out why Barnard in her later comments consistently tried to diminish Eldershaw's contribution to the latter stages of their partnership. From letters examined and comments in Nettie Palmer's diary, Dever concludes that Barnard's relationship with Frank Dalby Davison, and the role he played in the group of friends, had a considerable impact on the partnership and on the way Barnard presented the collaboration after Eldershaw's death.
