'An Entangled Kind of Haunting' : Judith Wright and Uncanny Australia, Toby Davidson , single work criticism
'Ken Gelder and Jane Jacobs' Uncanny Australia (1998), along with Judith Wright's poetry, analyses and responds to the Australian ghost story. Wright does this through poeticised connections of land, history and family and Gelder-Jacobs through postcolonial criticism. This paper investigates how a combined reading of the two can offer new insights into Australian ghost stories and the poetics of haunting' (Philament editors: Bernadette Cantrall, Dreu Harrison and James McLeod).

Posti"[it's ]a[ll ]about the", Josh Dubrau , single work poetry
'The initial idea for "Post" was engendered by the author's computer's bungled attempt to read the subject index of an online copy of the complete writings of Freud. Not being content to let the random remain random, authorial insertions comprise the parts in square brackets which create 'Freudian slips' based on my (mis)readings of the found text' (Philament Contents Page).

Richard Feynman Meets Albert Einstein For Teai"Nerves shake the chalk in my hand", Martin Mantle , single work poetry

Our Debt to Vulcan, Allan McCay , single work short story
