SUMMARY:Exodus from Vienna
DESCRIPTION:🛄 Exodus from Vienna \nFollowing the 1938 annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany\, many members of Vienna’s vibrant Jewish community sought safe havens overseas to escape growing persecution. Amongst them were Michael and Regine Weiss and their family. Their story\, as told through records held by the National Archives of Australia and other information provided by their descendants\, reveals much about Australia’s attitudes towards Jewish refugees during these dark days. \nPresented by Patrick Ferry\, Assistant State Manager of the Victoria office of the National Archives of Australia. Patrick is an archivist with over 20 years of experience in the field. He is also the author of various local history books and the winner of a Victorian Community History Award in 2020. \nBookings are essential with a gold coin for entry.

SUMMARY:Welcome home for our Terlecki timber piano front
DESCRIPTION:Please join us to celebrate the restoration and reframing of our glorious carved Terlecki timber piano front. \nThis piano front was donated to us by Keith Kilner representing his wider family and the recent restoration was paid for with a donation from the Boak family. We are enormously grateful to both families for their generosity. \nWe’ll be celebrating in style with a sparkling morning tea at the RHSV premises\, 239 A’Beckett St and we’ll be hosting members of both the Kilner and Boak families. \nA tiny bit of background … \nIn 1862 Joseph Kilner (piano maker) and Joseph Wilkie (piano tuner)\, opened a music and piano saloon at 15 Collins Street in Melbourne Australia and in 1863 established a factory at 174 Queen Street to construct pianos. Driven by Kilner\, the firm soon began experimenting with using Australian blackwood and red gum but also managed to incorporate other local timbers including kauri\, myrtle\, sassafras\, Queensland pine and huon pine in their instruments. \nWilkie\, Kilner and Company pianos won major prizes at home and abroad including a silver medal for best entry in its class at the Centennial International Exhibition held in Philadelphia in 1876 for an upright wooden-framed instrument that had a front panel intricately carved with Australian plants and animals\, plus the words ‘Advance Australia’ beneath a rising sun\, – reminiscent of the Rising Sun badge proudly worn by soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Australian Imperial Force in both World Wars (this is ‘our’ piano front). \nThe elaborate front was carved by Polish immigrant\, Felix Terlecki\, who also produced some of the finest ornamental wood-carvings found in Melbourne’s colonial churches\, banks etc \nHOUSEKEEPING \n\nThe Gallery Downstairs where this event will be held is fully accessible.\nThere will be no Zoom for this event.\nPlease RSVP\, although the event is free\, we do need to know numbers for catering and seating.\nWhen you RSVP you will be sent an automatically-generated email of confirmation – if this email doesn’t pop up in your in-box\, please check your Spam or Junk mail folders.\nThose who RSVP do not need to bring a ticket on the day – your names will be at the door.

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION LAUNCH: MELBOURNE'S STORIED LANEWAYS
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE LAUNCH OF\nMELBOURNE’S STORIED LANEWAYS\nLaunched by Julian O’Shea\nCurated by David Thompson\nDesigned by Daisy Searls\nThursday 11 April\, 5:30pm – 7pm\n\nWe all have our favourite Melbourne laneway and curator\, David Thompson\, has chosen his favourites which reveal some intriguing Melbourne stories. When we think of today’s gussied-up tourist-friendly laneways like Guilford Lane and Hosier Lane\, it is hard to imagine that a mere 50 years ago the laneways were workaday places full still of small factories and light industry. And earlier still there was the desperation of Little Lon. Today we get just glimpses of those rough and ready laneways that serviced the city and a frisson as the mouths of some still grimy and squalid laneways beckon us deeper in. \nThis exhibition has grown out of the RHSV’s latest publication which is an updated version of  historian Weston Bate’s Essential but Unplanned: Melbourne’s Laneways which came out 30 years ago in 1994. The new laneways book will be launched in a few months. \nJulian O’Shea is a popular online creator with millions of views across YouTube\, Instagram and TikTok. You might have seen him on your For You Page standing in front of a strange piece of urban infrastructure. Julian recently won the 2023 Victorian Community History Award for best Digital Storytelling Award. Julian has performed at Melbourne Fringe and various comedy storytelling events including SciFight Comedy Debate\, and has been a comedy writer for Mad Magazine. He is a regular guest on ABC Radio Melbourne with Charlie Pickering and recently shared stories of the city with Julia Zemiro on Great Australian Walks. His work has been featured in The Age\, Herald Sun\, 3AW and the ABC. Julian has an upcoming show\, M is for Melbourne\, in the Melbourne Comedy Festival (27 March – 7 April). \n

SUMMARY:A G L Shaw Lecture. Anti-Slavery and Protection in Port Phillip and NSW: the Curious Colonial Afterlife of the 1837 Select Committee Report on Aborigines
DESCRIPTION:The AGL Shaw lecture has been presented in partnership with the C J La Trobe Society for many years. It is one of the RHSV’s Distinguished Lectures and we are thrilled that\, in 2024\, Professor Penny Edmonds from the Flinders University will be delivering the lecture. \nIn 1838 Quaker James Backhouse posted the 1837 Report of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Aboriginal Tribes (British Settlements) ‘hot off the press’ from Cape Town to key figures he had met in the Australian colonies\, including missionary George Langhorne\, with instructions for it to be sent to Police Magistrate Foster Fyans and Captain William Lonsdale in Port Phillip. The much-studied 1837 report is often described as the ‘blueprint’ for imperial reform and the protection of Aboriginal peoples in the colonies. Backhouse sent the report to New South Wales including to three men of influence whom he had met in Sydney – the Colonial Secretary Alexander McLeay\, police magistrate Archibald Innes and Reverend John Saunders. These three men would be central to the formation of the Sydney branch of the Aborigines’ Protection Society or the ‘Australian APS’\, suggesting that the report’s distribution was part of a transimperial moment of humanitarian activism. \nIn this lecture\, Penny shines new light on these important networks – stretching from Britain to the Cape Colony and Melbourne – and Backhouse’s precious packages containing the report to show the entanglements of antislavery and protection\, and to offer a nuanced account of the activities and flow of policy during the creation of the Port Phillip protectorate. She will illuminate these networks with new forms of data visualisation. As she argues\, the careers of Governors La Trobe and Arthur of Van Diemen’s Land were embodiments of this shift from antislavery to protection during a complex moment when the establishment of Port Phillip and the invasion of Kulin lands occurred at the same time as the rise in humanitarian sentiment and policy regarding Aboriginal peoples in the British colonies. \nQuaker James Backhouse attached the highest importance to the 1837 report as a means of bringing a moral ‘awakening’ to settlers who had invaded Aboriginal lands and protection to Aboriginal people on violent frontiers. Yet the violent frontier wars across the southeastern colonies at this time continued to frustrate the humanitarian aspirations of La Trobe and others. Despite their efforts\, the notion of a ‘humane colonisation’ was always to be an impossible project. \n  \nProfessor Penelope Edmonds is Matthew Flinders Professor\, History\, in the College of Humanities\, Arts and Social Sciences at Flinders University\, South Australia. Penny’s research is distinguished by over two decades of creative and interdisciplinary work in the areas of Australian history\, nineteenth-century British Empire and settler colonialism in the Australian and Pacific region\, postcolonial histories\, heritage and museums. She seeks to bring a critical-theory perspective to questions of colonialism\, race\, gender\, reconciliation and redress\, humanitarianism\, slavery and unfreedom in the Australian and Western Pacific region. Penny’s book Settler Colonialism and (Re)Conciliation: Frontier Violence\, Affective Performances\, and Imaginative Refoundings (Palgrave UK\, 2016) was shortlisted for the 2017 Ernest Scott Prize\, University of Melbourne/Australian Historical Association for best book in colonial history. \nAlan George Lewers Shaw AO\, FAHA\, FASSA\, FRAHS\, FRHSV (1916 – 2012) was an RHSV Councillor from 1965 to 1971 and President from 1987 to 1991. He is also a Benefactor of the Royal Historical Society of Victoria. He was President of the C J La Trobe Society as well and the two organisations\, the C J La Trobe Society and the RHSV\, have jointly presented the annual A G L Shaw lecture since 2002 as a tribute to a great historian. A list of previous lecturers can be viewed here. \n  \nHouse-keeping \nYou will be sent an automatic email confirmation once you book – if this email doesn’t appear in your in-box\, please check your Spam or Junk Mail folder as these automatically generated emails can go astray. \nAs at most RHSV events\, we will be serving refreshments from 5:30pm to 6pm when the lecture starts however\, for the AGL Shaw lecture\, we also serve refreshments after the event and we encourage our members and the members of the C J La Trobe Society to stay a little longer and share our hospitality.

SUMMARY:South Yarra Water Works Company (1854 – 1863)
DESCRIPTION:Our first co-presentation with Engineering Heritage Victoria in 2024 will be by Ken McInnes who will explore the history\, the entrepreneurs\, the engineers\, the operations\, the expansion and the demise of the short lived South Yarra Water Works Company (1854 – 1863). \nIn 1854\, 170 years ago\, Yan Yean Reservoir was completed. Over the following ten years water was progressively reticulated to the houses and businesses of Melbourne and its suburbs. \nBefore Yan Yean\, water was supplied from the Yarra River above “The Falls”\, pumped into water carts and delivered around town. A large elevated cast iron tank was also built on Eastern Hill\, filled by a steam pump on the north bank of the Yarra River\, and provided reticulated water around the city area. \nTo provide water to Prahran and South Yarra\, the ‘South Yarra Water Works Company’\, pumped water into water carts\, from the south bank of the Yarra River\, upstream near Chapel Street. Once the Company was incorporated in 1855\, it established a steam pump on Forest Hill and pumped water from the Yarra River to a tank on the corner of Chapel Street and Gardiner’s Creek Road\, South Yarra\, and provided reticulated water to nearby establishments. Later on the scheme was extended with another water tank near St.Kilda Junction. \nThe engineers initially associated with the Company were Alexander Kennedy Smith\, George Holmes and Edward Richardson. The initial local entrepreneurs progressively gave way to later investors. There was lobbying\, intrigue\, and politics over granting land\, financing\,  constructing of its tanks\, laying of pipes in Central Roads Board reserves that later became municipal roads\, ‘scuffles’ over the removal by council of pipes laid in ‘their’ streets.  Once Yan Yean water mains were laid to the suburbs south of the Yarra River\, the demise of the Company was inevitable\, leading to its dissolution in 1863\, and the gradual disappearance of all physical traces of its existence. \nThis presentation will provide a fascinating narrative for all who have an interest in the history of Victoria. \n  \nHOUSEKEEPING \nThis event will be offered in person at the RHSV and via Zoom. Those purchasing a Zoom ticket will be sent the log-in details 24 hours before the event. And the Zoom log-in is for 6pm. \n
