Download Colonial Consorts Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Carrying out the duties of a governor’s wife was the pinnacle of public service for women in colonial Australia. Victoria had ten British governors during the nineteenth century, and all were married men. (One of them, Sir Henry Barkly, was married twice.) Their wives accompanied them to Melbourne as a matter of course, forced to leave behind their homes, their extended families and sometimes their school-age children. While researching Colonial Consorts, Marguerite Hancock made extensive use of letters, diaries, and family papers in libraries and archives in Switzerland, Scotland and Australia.

Download Settler Colonial Governance in Nineteenth-Century Victoria Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This is a quite distinctive development shaped by the aftermath of the history wars within Australia and through engagement with the 'new imperial history' of Britain and its empire. It is characterised by an awareness of colonial Australia's positioning within broader imperial circuits through which key personnel, ideas and practices flowed, and also by 'local' settler society's impact upon, and entanglements with, Aboriginal Australia. The volume heralds a new, spatially aware, movement within Australian history writing. - Alan Lester This is a timely, astutely assembled and well nuanced collection that combines theoretical sophistication with empirical solidity. Theoretically, it engages knowledgeably but not uncritically with a broad range of influences, including postcolonialism, the new imperial history, settler colonial studies and critical Indigenous studies.
