SUMMARY:Cataloguing Clinics 2022
DESCRIPTION:Jillian Hiscock\, the RHSV Collections Manager\, started these free cataloguing clinics during the early days of COVID and they suit Zoom very well. The clinics run for an hour from 11am – 12noon on the 4th Thursday of each month. It is a relaxed gathering of people who are finding their way through the intricacies of cataloguing material in historical collections which\, as we all know\, fall between a library and a museum with sometimes a bit of art gallery thrown in.  With our membership scattered across Australia please remember that this is Melbourne time – AEDT in summer and AEST in winter. \nJillian always prepares some material on some specific queries but questions are encouraged and\, remember\, a problem shared is a problem halved. The clinics are conversational in format rather than a seminar. If you are new to cataloguing\, or an old hand\, you will find plenty to interest you in these sessions. Jillian often has material which is emailed out to attendees after the clinic. \nThe clinics in 2022 will be held (via Zoom) on: \n\nMar 24\, 2022 11:00 AM                 For this seminar Jillian has been asked to speak about “how to \n                                                         say no to donations”! So she’ll be talking about how you can \n                                                         develop a Collections Policy or a Collection Development \n                                                         Strategy and other tools for defining what you collect and what\n                                                         you don’t collect. \n        Apr 28\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        May 26\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Jun 23\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Jul 28\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Aug 25\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Sep 22\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Oct 27\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Nov 24\, 2022 11:00 AM\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/85662066892?pwd=L2REVUhtZmtHblM0ZjV0ZDNxN3FkUT09 \nMeeting ID: 856 6206 6892 \nPasscode: 227214 \nAlthough\, we provide the Zoom details above\, please do remember to register otherwise we cannot email you material after the event.

SUMMARY:61st Annual Pioneer Women’s Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:As 2022 is the 120th Anniversary of National Council of Women Victoria (NCWV)\, we will focus on pioneering women who established Victorian women organisations and those who have continued these organisations up until today. \nDr Judith Smart AM\, co-author of the history of the NCW Australia\, Stirrers with Style will give an overview of the history of women’s organisations\, then a panel of speakers from some of the founding groups of NCWV will talk about their beginnings and where they are today. \nThe Pioneer Women’s Memorial Garden is a garden of remembrance created in Kings Domain as part of the 1934 celebration of the Centenary of Melbourne. A variety of fundraising ventures occurred\, including producing and selling a commemorative book\, and receiving public subscriptions to have a particular woman’s name inscribed on a “sheet of remembrance”\, buried beneath the sundial in the garden. The garden was designed by Hugh Linaker and is a formal\, symmetrical garden traversed by a watercourse. This flows into a grotto which contains a bronze statue of a woman by the sculptor Charles Web Gilbert. \nThis is a COVID safe event\, with distancing and sanitising. Please notify NCWV of your attendance on info@ncwvic.org.au \nThis is a Women’s History Month event

SUMMARY:CONNECTING HISTORICAL SOCIETIES AND PRIMARY SCHOOLS
DESCRIPTION:In 2022 the RHSV\, along with many other organisations\, will be pulling out all stops to celebrate the sesquicentenary of the Education Act 1872. This ground-breaking legislation mandated that primary education in Victoria would be free\, secular and compulsory. \nThe Dept of Education is encouraging primary schools to partner with their local historical societies – so  we are encouraging historical societies to contact their local primary school and plan some activities. Which is easy to say but what activities are age appropriate? How do we make them fit the curriculum? Who do we contact? What is an appropriate length of time for an event? Do we go to the primary school or do they come to us? Do we let small children handle objects from our collection? How do we make an event interesting? \nIn this forum we will be talking about all aspects of creating and holding events that engage primary school aged children. We intend to have several case studies from historical societies who are already successfully working with their local students. \nThis will be a structured discussion and we want everyone to come away with good ideas that their historical society can use to connect with their local primary school. Whilst this is aimed at 2022 and the celebration of education across Victoria the ideas should be adaptable for every year and every situation. \nIf you’d like to present a case-study or you have ideas you’d like to share please contact Rosemary Cameron

SUMMARY:A G L SHAW LECTURE: The Barristers of the Port Phillip District\, 1839-1851
DESCRIPTION:The first barristers arrived in Melbourne in 1839\, the same year as Charles La Trobe\, but only 14 were admitted to practice before 1851. Separation from NSW and the discovery of gold totally transformed the Bar\, with fifty new barristers being admitted by 1854. All came from the United Kingdom and brought with them the traditions\, ethics and etiquette of the English\, Irish and Scottish bars\, though these transplanted somewhat uneasily to the rough and ready makeshift courts of the goldfields. \nSpeaker Peter Yule\, one of Australia’s leading historians\, is a member of the RHSV Council\, and of the La Trobe Society. He is an Honorary Research Fellow in the School of Historical and Philosophical Studies\, University of Melbourne. His most recent publication\, Vic Bar\, a commissioned major history of the Victorian Bar from its earliest days in the late 1830s to the present\, has just been published by Australian Scholarly Publishing. His lecture in honour of Professor AGL Shaw will give insights into the legal system in Port Phillip from the 1830s to Separation in 1851. \nThe AGL Shaw Lecture is presented each year by the RHSV and the La Trobe Society and forms part of the RHSV’s annual Distinguished Lecturer Series. A list of previous lecturers can be viewed here. \n\n\n\n\nPeter Yule studied and taught history at the University of Melbourne before moving to Warrnambool where he worked in a family business while also writing histories of Warrnambool\, Koroit and the Shire of Minhamite. Since 1996 he has worked as a freelance historian\, publishing over twenty books including acclaimed histories of Australian National Airways\, the Collins class submarine project\, and Vietnam veterans since the war\, and biographies of W L Baillieu and Sir Ian Potter. His histories of the Royal Children’s Hospital and Carlton won best print/publication and best collaborative work categories respectively in the Victorian Community History Awards. He is a Fellow of the RHSV\, an honorary history fellow at the University of Melbourne and a member of the Warrnambool\, Koroit\, Port Fairy and Mortlake Historical Societies. \n\n\n\n\n\nWe are delighted to welcome all those interested in Melbourne’s legal history and encourage them to attend our public lectures.\nThe RHSV is on the edge of Melbourne’s legal district on the corner of William Street and A’Beckett Street. As with all RHSV events\, Refreshments are served before the lecture from 6:30pm and the lecture will start at 7pm.\n\nRHSV members please note that this lecture has a later start time than most RHSV events. Refreshments are served from 6:30pm and the lecture will start at 7pm. Also please note that this lecture will not be offered via Zoom.\n\n\nPeter’s book\, VIC BAR\, a history of the Victorian Bar will be available for purchase on the night.

SUMMARY:Lighter Than Air - book launch with Helene Rogers
DESCRIPTION:The Richmond & Burnley Historical Society is launching Helene Rogers’ book\, Lighter Than Air. \nFledgling balloonists in nineteenth century Australia realised that their aerial endeavours added little to their pockets\, or to science. Re-inventing themselves as showmen and women\, they performed daring acrobatics from trapezes and parachutes\, touring towns and cities all over the country. George Coppin introduced the earliest balloon flight in Richmond’s Cremorne Gardens. \nA magnificent book that captures the amazing history of early flight in Australia.  \nBookings essential 9427 1800 or email richmondhs@optusnet.com.au

SUMMARY:A World of Architectural History 
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will discuss the preparations and outcomes of the 21st Edition of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis lecture will discuss the preparations and outcomes of the 21st Edition of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture\, in what are two entirely re-written volumes\, also available online. It constitutes the most ambitious attempt to provide an overall account of architectural history in all parts of the world across the past 5\,500 years. Three scholars from the University of Melbourne (Dr Amanda Achmadi\, Prof Philip Goad\, Prof Paul Walker) wrote chapters on Australian/Southeast Asian architectural history\, and hence in part this public lecture will also be a celebration of their roles within the task. \nMurray Fraser is joining ACAHUCH for April of 2022\, supported by the Macgeorge Bequest at the University of Melbourne. \nMurray Fraser is Professor of Architecture and Global Culture at UCL’s Bartlett School of Architecture\, and Chair of the Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain. In 2008 his book Architecture and the ‘Special Relationship’ won the RIBA Research Award and CICA Bruno Zevi Book Prize. He is General Editor for the 21st Edition of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture (2020)\, awarded the SAHGB’s Colvin Prize. He received the 2018 RIBA Annie Spink Award for Excellence in Education. \nHosted by Australian Centre of Architectural History\, Urban and Cultural Heritage\, University of Melbourne \n\nBOOK HERE.

SUMMARY:The Life and Art of Penleigh Boyd by Colin Smith
DESCRIPTION:Colin Smith will be the guest speaker at the Brighton Cemetorian’s 2022 AGM. He will speak on The Life and Art of Penleigh Boyd   \nTheodore Penleigh Boyd (15 August 1890 – 27 November 1923) was a British born Australian artist. \nPenleigh Boyd was a member of the Boyd artistic dynasty: his parents Arthur Merric Boyd (1862–1940) and Emma Minnie Boyd (née à Beckett) were well-known artists of the day\, and his brothers included the ceramicist Merric Boyd (1888–1959) and the novelist Martin Boyd (1893–1972). His son Robin Boyd (1919–1971) became a famous and influential architect\, educator and social commentator\, and his nephews Arthur Boyd\, Guy Boyd and David Boyd became prominent artists. \nPenleigh Boyd is best known as a landscapist with an accomplished handling of evanescent effects of light. A notable influence was artist E. Phillips Fox\, who introduced him to plein air techniques when they were neighbours in Paris in 1912–3. At his death his obituarists compared him to Arthur Streeton and rated him as one of the most promising painters of his generation. \nEvent to be held at the Camden Hotel in the Upstairs Function Room  – 414 Hawthorn Rd\, Caulfield South at 1pm. Refreshments will be served – please advise if any dietary requirements. \nRing 9558 4248 [Bookings essential]

SUMMARY:Prisoners of the Japanese: Personal stories from WW2 service records
DESCRIPTION:Anzac Day 1942: As Australia stopped to remember the sacrifices of war\, over 22\,000 Australian service personnel were prisoners of the Japanese\, having been recently captured in Malaya\, Singapore\, Timor and New Guinea. Their families back home waited anxiously for news\, which often never came. In this webinar\, Patrick Ferry from the National Archives of Australia draws on original defence service records and treasured family archives to tell the personal stories of several POWs from one small rural Victorian community. \nTo honour Anzac Day the National Archives of Australia will present this fascinating seminar in partnership with the RHSV and the Genealogical Society of Victoria. \nImage caption: Extract from original Japanese list of Australian POWs and Internees who perished when the Montevideo Maru was sunk in 1942.

SUMMARY:LGBTIQ+ Inclusion in the history of the Australian Defence Force
DESCRIPTION:Australian Defence Force policies banned lesbian\, gay and bisexual people from serving until November 1992 and transgender people until September 2010. Yet\, there is a long history of their service\, as the Australian military evolved from an institution that actively persecuted LGBTIQ+ members to one that actively welcomes and values their contributions. \nJoin historian Noah Riseman – co-author of Pride in Defence (2020) and Serving in Silence? (2018) – as he provides an overview of Australian LGBTIQ+ military service\, past and present.

SUMMARY:Public Symposium: Australasia & the Global Turn in Architectural History Symposium
DESCRIPTION:A symposium exploring the expansion of the new edition of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture that encompass Australasia \nConvened by Macarena de la Vega de León and Paul Walker\, this event will be held in person at the Melbourne School of Design\, and on Zoom. Note\, not all panellists will be in person at the Symposium \nLink will be made available after registration. \nThe writing of architectural history shifted with the turn of the twenty-first century. Theoretical and methodological reassessments\, as well as the study of postcolonial theories in architecture\, challenged the previously accepted disciplinary canon and made the development of a global history of architecture urgent. More than twenty years later\, there has been resulting literature\, disciplinary reassessments\, and continuous debate around the meaning of global in the history of architecture. One of the latest additions to the field\, the new edition of Sir Banister Fletcher’s rebranded as Global History of Architecture (2019)\, is proof of the continuous scholarly interest in reframing the global. \nAlthough historians of architecture in the region have contributed their expertise in the Global South to some of the resulting publications\, there is still a limited presence of an Australasian perspective. In general\, the field continues to present challenges in combining these geographies and cultures\, in defining the notion of region\, in the periodization of narratives and in capturing transnational connections. The aim of this event is twofold: on the one hand\, to celebrate the publication of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture highlighting the Australasian contributions to the volume; on the other\, to open a wider discussion on the global issues of gender\, race and migration in architecture that continue to have a limited presence in global narratives. To critically review the most recent literature on the global is necessary to inform next steps. \n  \nSession 1_ Wednesday 27 April\, 9am-10.45am \nMurray Fraser\, “A Provisional\, Collectivised Global History.”\nVimalin Rujivacharakul\, “Buildings of the Oceans: Ephemerality and Monumentality in Architectural History.”\nDeidre Brown\, “Decolonising and Indigenising Architectural History.”\nAmanda Achmadi and Paul Walker\, “Writing architecture across colonial borders: ‘Southeast Asia\, Australia and the Pacific\, 1780-1914.’”\nPhilip Goad\, “Time for Global Reassessment: Architectural Histories of Southeast Asia\, Australasia and Oceania.” \nSession 2_ Wednesday 27 April\, 11am.-12.30pm \nMark Jarzombek\, “Beyond History?”\nVikram Prakash\, “Eventualities: The Agency of Architectural Historiography in Decolonization.”\nJoanna Merwood-Salisbury\, “Race and the Historiography of American Architecture.”\nMirjana Lozanovska\, “Theory + History = Historiography.”\nKaren Burns and Lori Brown\, “Women\, Global History\, and the Nation State.” \nBOOK HERE \n  \nMurray Fraser (pictured) is Professor of Architecture and Global Culture at UCL’s Bartlett School of Architecture\, and Chair of the Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain. In 2008 his book Architecture and the ‘Special Relationship’ won the RIBA Research Award and CICA Bruno Zevi Book Prize.

SUMMARY:Cataloguing Clinics 2022
DESCRIPTION:Jillian Hiscock\, the RHSV Collections Manager\, started these free cataloguing clinics during the early days of COVID and they suit Zoom very well. The clinics run for an hour from 11am – 12noon on the 4th Thursday of each month. It is a relaxed gathering of people who are finding their way through the intricacies of cataloguing material in historical collections which\, as we all know\, fall between a library and a museum with sometimes a bit of art gallery thrown in.  With our membership scattered across Australia please remember that this is Melbourne time – AEDT in summer and AEST in winter. \nJillian always prepares some material on some specific queries but questions are encouraged and\, remember\, a problem shared is a problem halved. The clinics are conversational in format rather than a seminar. If you are new to cataloguing\, or an old hand\, you will find plenty to interest you in these sessions. Jillian often has material which is emailed out to attendees after the clinic. \nThe remaining clinics in 2022 will be held (via Zoom) on: \n\n        Apr 28\, 2022 11:00 AM  (the topic in April will be dealing with newspapers plus cheap and cheerful hacks for conservation and storage of collections)\n        May 26\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Jun 23\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Jul 28\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Aug 25\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Sep 22\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Oct 27\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Nov 24\, 2022 11:00 AM\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/85662066892?pwd=L2REVUhtZmtHblM0ZjV0ZDNxN3FkUT09 \nMeeting ID: 856 6206 6892 \nPasscode: 227214 \nAlthough\, we provide the Zoom details above\, please do remember to register otherwise we cannot email you material after the event.

SUMMARY:Launch of "Across Bass Strait"
DESCRIPTION:Anchor Books Australia is delighted to invite RHSV members and friends\nto the launch of Dr Jane Lennon’s book\, Across Bass Strait\nTo be launched by the Hon Dr Barry Jones AC\n  \nAcross Bass Strait is a history of the connection which commenced in the 1840s between squatters\, merchants and mariners to develop the livestock trade from the mainland to Van Diemen’s Land. The trade established nineteenth-century Gippsland as a prime beef producer exporting through Port Albert\, a now-forgotten port\, and this account is based on merchants’ records and letters from two families who were major players in this trade. \nThis long distant connection is reflected in the transformation of the landscape\, both on land and sea. The stories\, underwritten by the need to provide meat\, link distant shores which until now have been barely acknowledged in the national narrative\, yet from the edges of the two coast lines\, illustrate the layered environmental history of our continent. \nThis little-known story deals with food miles to supply the fresh meat\, wind power\, seasonal conditions\, competition and determined people\, all themes still relevant today. \nDr Jane Lennon AM grew up in rural Victoria and has an affinity for the stormy southern shores. She has spent her working life delving into the history and conservation of heritage places and is the author of numerous books and articles on pastoral history\, cultural landscapes and heritage. In December 2020\, Jane was made an Honorary member of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) for her distinguished service to conservation in Australia and internationally. \nThe Master of Ceremonies for this event will be Dr Andrew Lemon AM \nPlease RSVP below if you’d like to attend this event. If you’d like to record your apologies you can also do that below. This event will not be offered via Zoom. \n

SUMMARY:The role of the surveyors in the establishment of Melbourne and Victoria
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted that Mr Craig L. Sandy\, Surveyor-General of Victoria\, will be talking to RHSV members about the role of the surveyors in the establishment of Melbourne and Victoria. This event is presented in partnership with the Genealogical Society of Victoria.  \nAccording to the Encyclopaedia of Melbourne\, “In late 1836 Governor Bourke sent three surveyors\, Robert Russell\, Frederick D’Arcy and William Darke\, together with 36 convicts\, to the Port Phillip District with instructions to chart the shore of Port Phillip Bay and plot the course of the Yarra River. Russell\, who was in charge of the party\, chose\, however\, to prepare a topographical map of the area adjacent to the Yarra River to the west and east of Batmans Hill\, on which he plotted the locations of the existing squatters’ dwellings. Although Russell claimed that the horses would require conditioning before they would be fit for the larger survey\, Bourke was not impressed\, and when he visited the settlement in February 1837 he arranged for his companion\, Robert Hoddle\, to take charge of the survey party. Hoddle lost no time in completing the required tasks and on 24 March 1837 forwarded to Bourke a proposed layout of the future Town of Melbourne\, plotted onto Russell’s plan of the settlement. A grid pattern with the major streets practically parallel to the Yarra River\, Hoddle’s layout conformed in design with the regulations Governor Darling had laid down after an inquiry in 1829.” Thus began Melbourne’s love-affair with our famous grid and the benefits of a well-surveyed town. \nMr Sandy\, a licensed surveyor\, is the Surveyor-General of Victoria\, and Chair of the Surveyors Registration Board of Victoria\, as such is the primary government authority on surveying and the cadastre. The Surveyor-General fulfils a range of statutory roles and responsibilities dealing with land and property boundaries. \nMr Sandy is also a member of the following Commissions and Committees in Victoria: \n\nRegistrar of Geographic Names\nVictorian Electoral Boundaries Commission\nFederal Redistribution Committee for Victoria\nIntergovernmental Committee on Surveying and Mapping  – Chair\nCouncil of Reciprocating Surveyors Board of Australia and New Zealand – former Chair\n\nIn 2020\, he was awarded the Asia Pacific Spatial Excellence Award for Spatial Professional of the Year for 2019 for his work in modernisation of the cadastre and in raising awareness for mental health issues in our profession. \nFor the non-surveyors amongst us: “A cadastre or cadaster is a comprehensive recording of the real estate or real property’s metes-and-bounds of a country.Often it is represented graphically in a cadastral map. In most countries\, legal systems have developed around the original administrative systems and use the cadastre to define the dimensions and location of land parcels described in legal documentation. \nCadastral surveys document the boundaries of land ownership\, by the production of documents\, diagrams\, sketches\, plans (plats in the US)\, charts\, and maps. They were originally used to ensure reliable facts for land valuation and taxation. An example from early England is the Domesday Book in 1086. Napoleon established a comprehensive cadastral system for France that is regarded as the forerunner of most modern versions. The cadastre is a fundamental source of data in disputes and lawsuits between landowners. Land registration and cadastre are both types of land recording and complement each other.” (Thank you Wikipedia). \nThis event will be a Zoom event only.
