SUMMARY:Book Club with Robyn Annear. Nothing New.
DESCRIPTION:“I have a double-barrelled gun\, silver mounted and in excellent order. I want\, in exchange\, a double perambulator.” Exchange and Mart\, 1869. \nUpholders\, Shoddy mills\, Petticoat Lane\, fripperers – Nothing New opens up a wonderful world that\, despite our love-affair with op-shops\, is all but hidden from us in today’s world of consumerism and obsolescence.\n \nJoin the splendid Robyn Annear when she talks about Nothing New\, her latest book\, which chronicles the history of second-hand trade across the world and down the ages (Jesus’ clothes would have been divided up among the soldiers guarding the crosses as their perquisite\, or ‘perk’ as we’d say today). \nWe are asking those that join bookclub to bring their own favourite story of an op-shop find or hand-me-down (I can remember the joy of growing taller than my elder sister so I would never have a hand-me-down again). \nRobyn Annear is author of five books of history\, including Bearbrass: Imagining Early Melbourne\, winner of a Victorian Premier’s Literary Award in 1995 and still in print today. Her other books are: Nothing But Gold: The diggers of 1852\, The Man Who Lost Himself\, Fly a Rebel Flag\, and A City Lost & Found: Whelan the Wrecker’s Melbourne. \nAs a curator\, Robyn has explored aspects of Melbourne and Victoria’s history in exhibitions at the State Library of Victoria and the City Gallery (‘Up’\, ‘Royal Melbourne’\, & ‘Special’)\, besides writing exhibition text for the blockbuster A Day in Pompeii show at Melbourne Museum in 2009\, and for the Museum’s permanent exhibition\, The Melbourne Story. \nRobyn has appeared on TV\, talking about goldfields history\, in Victoria Wood’s BBC documentary series\, Victoria’s Empire (Episode 3)\, and on Tony Robinson Explores Australia (Episode 4: Eureka). In 2014\, storyteller Jan Wositzky interviewed Robyn about pre-Eureka strife on the goldfields in his video series on the 1851 Monster Meeting at Forest Creek. Her most recent TV appearance was in The Crown and Us\, a two-part series which aired on ABC-TV in March 2019. \nRobyn won the Civic Choice award in the 2015 Melbourne Prize for Literature with her essay\, ‘Places Without Poetry’. She is a past member of the Library Board of Victoria and was one of the State Library’s inaugural Creative Fellows. \nIn 2018\, Robyn launched her monthly podcast\, Nothing on TV\, in which she ransacks Trove Newspapers\, the National Library of Australia’s digital repository of historical newsprint\, to present stories from a time when there was\, literally\, nothing on TV. If you have never listened to Robyn’s podcast – don’t waste another minute and start listening now. They are a delight. \n  \nZOOM details for joining this bookclub \nTopic: Bookclub: Robyn Annear\nTime: MONDAY AUG 10\, 2020 5:30PM \, Melbourne\, \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84101029542?pwd=aW1YbWV6VVlMRWJETExBdkQraCtYdz09 \nMeeting ID: 841 0102 9542\nPassword: 917922

SUMMARY:The Shelf Life of Zora Cross a presentation by Cathy Perkins
DESCRIPTION:The Shelf Life of Zora Cross – a presentation by Cathy Perkins\nTuesday\, 22 September 2020 4.45 pm for 5 pm\nvia Zoom (link will be sent on booking) \nPlease book numbers are limited \nEvent ran by the Camberwell Historical Society\nGeorge Fernand- enquiries@chs.org.au \nAustralian poet and journalist Zora Cross caused a sensation in 1917 with her book Songs of Love and Life. Here was a demure-looking young woman\, celebrating sexual passion in a provocative series of sonnets. She was hailed as a genius\, and many expected her to endure as a household name. While Cross’s fame didn’t last\, she kept writing through financial hardship\, personal tragedies and two world wars\, producing an impressive body of work. Her verse\, prose and correspondence with the likes of Ethel Turner\, George Robertson (of Angus & Robertson) and Mary Gilmore place Zora Cross among the key personalities of Australia’s literary world in the early twentieth century. \nCathy Perkins’ biography The Shelf Life of Zora Cross\, published in November 2019\, has received outstanding reviews and was recently shortlisted for a NSW Premier’s History Award. Cathy will talk about her discovery of Zora Cross in the archives of the State Library of NSW\, where she works as an editor\, and the many pleasures and challenges in writing her life story.

SUMMARY:Ross McMullin – ‘Turning Disaster into Victory: The Battle of Polygon Wood’
DESCRIPTION:The battle of Polygon Wood in September 1917 is one of the AIF’s most iconic but least understood victories. \nIt has usually been depicted as a relatively straightforward affair — the Australians advanced behind an irresistible barrage that resembled a Gippsland bushfire\, and there were inevitable casualties but no major hiccups. This interpretation is fundamentally flawed. \nThere was indeed a major hiccup that complicated the operation. The Germans\, sensing what was coming\, launched a ferocious pre-emptive attack against the AIF’s right. The 58th Battalion\, then holding the front line\, held firm despite severe casualties\, while the British unit alongside was driven back. AIF units earmarked for the following day’s operation were sent forward to retrieve the situation\, and further heavy losses resulted. \nWith enemy forces occupying the adjacent British sector\, General Pompey Elliott recommended that the operation be postponed. His superiors insisted that the attack had to proceed. Elliott had to overhaul the arrangements in great haste. He remained sceptical about assurances he was given that the plight on the right would be fixed before zero hour. It wasn’t. Even so\, men under his command attained the Australian objectives in their sector and ensured that the British objectives on their right were attained as well. \nWhen the real story is understood\, the extent of the AIF achievement at Polygon Wood can be properly appreciated. Dr Ross McMullin\, the award-winning biographer of Pompey Elliott\, will tell the story of the battle in a vivid and illuminating illustrated presentation. \nDate: 22 September 2020\nTime: Doors open 6:30 PM. Speaker 7:00 PM-8:00 PM. Refreshments to 8.30 PM.\nWhere: The Royal Historical Society\, 239 A’Beckett Street\, Melbourne.\nMHHV Members $10\, General Public $15. \nStrict Social Distancing regulations will apply.\nIt is necessary that all audience members pre-book their ticket so that we can organise the venue appropriately for your safety.\nBook your ticket here\n  \nDr Ross McMullin is an acclaimed biographer and historian\, and a lively and entertaining speaker. His biography Pompey Elliott won awards for biography and literature. Farewell\, Dear People: Biographies of Australia’s Lost Generation was awarded the Prime Minister’s Prize for Australian History and the National Cultural Award. His latest book is Pompey Elliott at War: In His Own Words. His biography of Australia’s first official war artist\, Will Dyson: Australia’s Radical Genius\, was highly commended by the judges of the National Biography Award. Other previous books include the ALP centenary history The Light on the Hill: The Australian Labor Party 1891-1991\, and another political history So Monstrous a Travesty: Chris Watson and The World’s First National Labour Government.

SUMMARY:Mallee Country: Land People History. A discussion
DESCRIPTION:This is a free online Zoom event presented by Western Victorian Association of Historical Societies for History Month. \nThe speakers are: Richard Broome\, Katie Holmes and Charles Fahey \n‘We often hear the phrase\, “the Mallee breeds em tough.” This book not only supports that but also gives a silent tip of the hat to the men and women over thousands of years who have called the Mallee home. It is a must read for every Australian.’ Kara Taylor\, Agora \nOur three speakers will discuss their co-authored book\, Mallee Country\, which tells the powerful history of mallee lands and people across southern Australia from Deep Time to the present. Carefully shaped and managed by Aboriginal people for over 50\,000 years\, mallee country was dramatically transformed by settlers\, first with sheep and rabbits\, then by flattening and burning the mallee to make way for wheat. Government backed settlement schemes devastated lives and country\, but some farmers learnt how to survive the droughts\, dust storms\, mice\, locusts and salinity – as well as the vagaries of international markets – and became some of Australia’s most resilient agriculturalists. In mallee country\, innovation and tenacity have been neighbours to hardship and failure.\nMallee Country is a story of how land and people shape each other. It is the story of how a landscape once derided by settlers as a ‘howling wilderness’ covered in ‘dismal scrub’ became home to citizens who delighted in mallee fauna and flora and fought to conserve it for future generations. And it is the story of the dreams\, sweat and sorrows of people who face an uncertain future of depopulation and climate change with creativity and hope. \nClick here to buy a copy of the book

SUMMARY:A Conversation: Dr Sue Silberberg with Dr Andrew Lemon
DESCRIPTION:A History Month event.  \nJoin author\, Dr Sue Silberberg in conversation with Dr Andrew Lemon about Sue’s book\, A Networked Community (Melbourne University Publishing). \nMelbourne’s first colonising expedition was funded by a group of investors including the Jewish emancipist Joseph Solomon. Thus\, in Melbourne\, as in the settlement of the continent itself\, Jews were at the foundation of colonisation. In Victoria\, as in the other new Australian colonies\, there were no civil or political restrictions on the Jewish community. As with other Jewish communities in the large centres of the world\, they responded to the freedoms of an emancipated society\, while the political and social environment of a new city such as Melbourne provided a unique set of opportunities. \nUnlike in other cities where Jewish property ownership was restricted\, here Jews could live and work where they chose\, becoming\, from the first land sales\, investors in property. Subsequently as the city expanded\, as developers and builders they influenced the formation of the urban fabric\, while their intellectual and economic connections brought new political and intellectual ideas and networks to the colonial experience. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/88081476362?pwd=aGdmaVpnbkM2M1hNdm04SjE2MXJGdz09 \nMeeting ID: 880 8147 6362\nPasscode: 499220 \nIf you are unfamiliar with Zoom please have a practice run well before the event starts by clicking on the URL above and following the prompts. \n

SUMMARY:Cataloguing Clinic: Thu 29 Oct
DESCRIPTION:Calling all historical societies across Victoria. \nOur next Zoom online Cataloguing Clinic during History Month is the 29th of October. \nJillian Hiscock\, our RHSV Collections Manager and a very experienced reference librarian\, will be available through Zoom to answer any queries you might have about cataloguing – or\, indeed any other aspect of your collection. \nIf you want\, you can email Jillian beforehand with your questions as sometimes it is easier to put something in writing.  Or just connect up on the day and pose your question then and give Jillian a surprise! (collections@historyvictoria.org.au) \nJillian will open with some basic cataloguing tips and we’ll take it from there. \nThese clinics are monthly – so keep an eye out for the one in November. Your participation is entirely up to you  – you might want to just listen in for the hour and learn from other’s questions – or maybe you have the answers too. It will be a place for historical societies to get together and talk cataloguing and collections. \nThese events are free. If you are not familiar with Zoom please\, well before the event starts\, click on one of the links below and familiarise yourself with the process. \n2.

SUMMARY:General Sir Peter Cosgrove interviewed by Emeritus Professor Richard Broome
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is thrilled to invite our members and friends to join our President\, Richard Broome\, in a Zoom conversation with General Sir Peter Cosgrove AK AC (Mil) CVO MC (Retd)\, one of Australia’s most significant public figures who has spent a life-time making history. Dr Andrew Lemon will be chairing this event. \n\nPeter Cosgrove was born in Sydney in 1947. The son of a soldier\, he attended Waverley College in Sydney and graduated in 1968 from the Royal Military College\, Duntroon. Early in his military career\, he fought in Vietnam\, commanding a rifle platoon. He was awarded the Military Cross in 1971 for his performance and leadership during an assault on enemy positions. \nIn 1972\, he served as Aide de Camp to Governor-General Sir Paul Hasluck. He returned to regimental life as second in command of a Company\, rising to Adjutant then Company Commander in the Army’s 5th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment (5 RAR)\, then 5/7 RAR in Holsworthy\, Sydney. Subsequent appointments included a period as a tactics instructor at the Army’s Infantry Centre in Singleton\, New South Wales; a year’s study at the United States Marine Corps Staff College in Quantico\, USA; extended periods of duty in the United Kingdom and India; and command of 1 RAR. He was appointed a Member in the Military Division of the Order of Australia (AM) for his service in command in 1983-84. \nPeter Cosgrove came to national attention in 1999 when\, as Commander of the International Task Force East Timor (INTERFET)\, he was responsible for overseeing that country’s transition to independence. For his leadership in this role he was promoted to Companion in the Military Division of the Order of Australia (AC). \nPromoted to Lieutenant General\, he was appointed Chief of Army in 2000. After further promotion to General\, he served as Chief of the Defence Force from 2002 to 2005. He retired from the Australian Defence Force in 2005. Subsequently\, he accepted positions on several boards\, including QANTAS\, Cardno and the Australian Rugby Union. He was appointed by the Queensland Government to lead the taskforce rebuilding communities in the Innisfail region following the devastation caused by Cyclone Larry in 2006. From 2007 to 2012\, he chaired the Council of the Australian War Memorial\, and served as Chancellor of the Australian Catholic University from 2010 until early 2014. \nOn 25 March 2014\, General Cosgrove became a Knight in the Order of Australia when he was sworn in as Governor-General (2014-2019). As Governor-General he travelled far and wide\, supporting Australians in times of crisis\, sadness\, joy or celebration\, representing us on the world stage with humour\, intelligence and a force of personal magnetism that was felt by everyone from prime ministers to presidents. \nWhen he retired in July 2019\, it was as one of the most beloved and respected governors-general in Australia’s history. \nGeneral Sir Peter Cosgrove has now written his memoir\, You Shouldn’t Have Joined … (an expression much used during his days as a soldier). His memoir allows us an incredible insight into the role and world of Australia’s Governor-General. He was there as two prime ministers were toppled by their own party. He was there through disasters both natural and man-made\, such as the destruction of MH17. You Shouldn’t Have Joined … is a true reflection of the man himself\, filled with intelligence\, forthrightness\, compassion and a brilliant eye for a telling anecdote. \n\n\nTICKETS TO EVENT AND SIGNED COPIES\n\nThis is a ticketed event and the cost is $10 per person or\n\nIf you purchase a signed copy of General Sir Peter Cosgrove’s memoir\, You Shouldn’t Have Joined\, at the RRP $49.99\, your ticket is included and postage is free-of-charge.\n\nZoom log-in details will be emailed to all ticket-holders and book-buyers 24 hours prior to the event.

A prolific inventor\, he is best known for his\ntilting pad thrust bearing. It remains one of the greatest inventions in\nlubrication science\, and revolutionised ship propulsion without it\,\nmodern shipping would not be possible. This talk reveals the story of Michell’s fascinating life and astonishing achievements\, and the motivations of the man behind the inventions. It weaves engineering and technology into the history of the early twentieth century.

SUMMARY:Amanda Scardamaglia discusses her Victorian Premier's History Award winning book
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted that Amanda Scardamaglia will be able to join RHSV members and friends to discuss the research behind her book\, Printed on Stone The Lithographs of Charles Troedel. This book is the first to document the visual history of print advertising in Australia and in so doing provides a valuable illustrated social history of Australia. \nCharles Troedel (1835–1906) was a master printer and lithographer\, and the face behind the production of most of Australia’s early advertising posters\, product labels\, and other print ephemera\, as well as the iconic Melbourne Album. Troedel’s catalogue of lithographs trace the production and evolution of nineteenth century commerce and culture—in the home\, at the bar\, in health\, hygiene and housework\, with fashion and style and in leisurely pursuits—defining the legal categories under which this content was protected and the way advertising came to be regulated. \nA history such as this is only possible because of the well-preserved archive documenting the work of Charles Troedel and his firm Troedel & Co. This archive includes the corporate records of Troedel’s printing business spanning over a century\, and nearly 10\,000 copies of print specimens produced by the company\, which were donated by the firm to the State Library of Victoria in 1968. The author of the book\, Dr Amanda Scardamaglia\, has meticulously researched this archive as a State Library Victoria \nTo read the Judges’ citation for the Victorian Premier’s History Award click here. \nThe Author\nDr Amanda Scardamaglia is an Associate Professor and Department Chair of the Swinburne Law School.
