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. Thu 29th Oct\, 2020 11:00 Eastern Australian Daylight Time \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84764828806?pwd=MndndWpISHRnV29ac0c3aFRZeHFqUT09 \nMeeting ID: 847 6482 8806\nPasscode: 163042
