Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, Australia's colonial gentry made it fashionable to spend summer in the hills. Mountain resorts or hill stations - in such locations as Mount Macedon in Victoria, the Blue Mountains and Southern Highlands in New South Wales, the Adelaide Hills in South Australia and Toowoomba in Queensland - quickly attracted patrons eager to luxuriate in the cooler climate, seek out the curative mountain air, enjoy the exotic gardens or take part in the refined society which gathered there. In Summer in the Hills, Andrea Inglis examines these antipodean hill- stations in detail, discussing their Imperial and Anglo- Indian antecedents and also considering the sometimes- surprising variations, which manifested in the local exemplars. Drawing on a wealth of lively primary sources, she opens a window on to the distinctive society that developed in the hills. As well, she explores variously the role played by aesthetic values, the importance of medical opinion in defining the hill station as a health resort and the impact of the hill-station experience on colonial attitudes to the bush. Finally, her study suggests that the hill station - no less than the beach or the post-World War II ski resort - made a clear contribution to a fledgling sense of Australian national identity.

Download or read book Aboriginal Placenames written by Luise Hercus and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aboriginal approaches to the naming of places across Australia differ radically from the official introduced Anglo-Australian system. However, many of these earlier names have been incorporated into contemporary nomenclature, with considerable reinterpretations of their function and form. Recently, state jurisdictions have encouraged the adoption of a greater number of Indigenous names, sometimes alongside the accepted Anglo-Australian terms, around Sydney Harbour, for example. In some cases, the use of an introduced name, such as Gove, has been contested by local Indigenous people. The 19 studies brought together in this book present an overview of current issues involving Indigenous placenames across the whole of Australia, drawing on the disciplines of geography, linguistics, history, and anthropology. They include meticulous studies of historical records, and perspectives stemming from contemporary Indigenous communities. The book includes a wealth of documentary information on some 400 specific placenames, including those of Sydney Harbour, the Blue Mountains, Canberra, western Victoria, the Lake Eyre district, the Victoria River District, and southwestern Cape York Peninsula.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From silent cinema pianist born in the Australian Bush to celebrity virtuoso entertaining Royalty in Mayfair--an extraordinarily magical and inspirational musical odyssey. The concert pianist Edward Cahill (1885-1975) rose to prominence from humble beginnings in the inauspicious setting of 19th-century rural Queensland.

Book excerpt: This book showcases current research into Indigenous and minority placenames in Australia and internationally. Many of the chapters in this volume originated as papers at a Trends in Toponymy conference hosted by the University of Ballarat in 2007 that featured Australian and international speakers. The chapters in this volume provide insight into the quality of toponymic research that is being undertaken in Australia and in countries such as Canada, Finland, South Africa, New Zealand, and Norway. The research presented here draws on the disciplines of linguistics, geography, history, and anthropology. The book includes meticulous studies of placenames in central NSW and the Upper Hunter region; Gundungurra cave names; western Arnhem Land; Northern Cape York Peninsula and Mount Wheeler in Queensland; saltwater placenames around Mer in the Torres Strait; and the Kaurna in South Australia.
