AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Responding to a growing European interest in Australia, this scholarly German collection aims at offering an introduction to Australia and its culture for students, academics and researchers as well as interested travellers. The 19 contributions, written by academics working in the field of Australian studies, deal with various aspects of Australia, such as geography, natural environment, history and politics, indigenous issues, economics, language, film and music.

The sections on Australian literature, with contributions by Horst Priessnitz, Rudolf Bader, Annegret Maack, Marion Spies, and Albert-Reiner Glaap, trace trends and developments in Australian fiction, poetry and drama. All contributions are in German; they all include bibliographical information for further reading and research.
