How to Rekindle Interest in the Great Australian Stories, Michael Heyward , single work column
Michael Heyward argues that Australian literature 'has long outstripped the academy's ability to comprehend it. The culture in our unis has not kept up with the task of studying our literary culture. Writers do not need to be studied to produce great books, but students need to read their books to undersand the nature and history of the imaginative life in the place where they live. This neglect corrodes the system in the schools too.'
