'This collected edition includes all the poems from David Campbell's individual volumes from 1949 to 1979, with the exception of the translations, Moscow Trefoil (1975) and Seven Russian Poets (1979). I have rearranged them in strict chronological order of first publication, so far as this can be established.'
Source: Introduction.
'This paper investigates the affective labour done by, specifically, native species images in Australian poetry, using Judith Wright's bird poems, and various poems about kangaroos as example. It uses the anthropological term, "deep hanging out", borrowed from an article about fashion models, to extend the idea of affective labour, and to measure poems' attentions to birds and animals, and their relation to iconising as the work of nationalism. It is concerned with cultural capital, and Canberra, and the human empire.' (Publication abstract)
