SUMMARY:Seeds of Concrete Progress: Grain Elevators and Technology Transfer between America and Australia
DESCRIPTION:#SeedsofConcrete22 \nIn partnership with Engineering Heritage Victoria \nThe fascination of the Modern Movement with the uncompromising aesthetics of concrete silos scattered worldwide is well known. Since their first appearances in North America\, the arrays of concrete silos used for storing grain along railway networks have captured the attention of many\, including architects\, industrial archaeologists\, painters\, photographers\, and artists. However\, several aspects of the construction and engineering of their design are less known and remain worthy of more research. \nIn the early 1900s\, concrete grain elevators also blossomed along the Australian railway networks of the Wheat Belts\, marking with their enduring presence the landscapes of many rural towns and cities in New South Wales\, Queensland\, Victoria\, and Western Australia. The Australian reception of these industrial structures of American provenance is proof of the far-sighted efforts of the State Governments of the time and contribute to the nation-building of modern Australia in a global context. \nThese widespread concrete structures also have important significance in engineering and technological history due to their innovative construction methods. The rural and urban proliferation of grain silos in Australia contributed significantly to developing a confident local concrete industry. During the 1920s\, concrete technology entered a new phase bolstered by ingenious systems of movable formwork\, like slip forming. After World War II\, the mastering of engineering and construction techniques used in silos opened the doors to high-rise concrete construction methods still critical today for infrastructure and multi-storey buildings. \nDr Giorgio Marfella is a graduate of the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Florence (Italy) and holds a PhD in Architecture from the University of Melbourne. \nHe joined the Faculty of Architecture\, Building and Planning\, at the University of Melbourne in 2014\, where he is appointed as full time Senior Lecturer in Construction and Architecture. Giorgio is a registered architect and the current chairperson of the Architects Registration Board of Victoria\, and before becoming an academic he has practiced with several renowned architectural companies based in Melbourne. \nGiorgio is an international expert on the design\, technology and history of tall buildings. In his doctorate thesis\, he researched the techno-economic evolution of Melbourne’s skyscrapers during the second half of the twentieth century\, revealing how their built form was a by-product of entrepreneurial speculation\, public interest\, international design exchange and radical technological innovation. He is a research active academic and member of his Faculty’s research centre\, Australian Centre for Architectural History\, Urban and Cultural Heritage\, where he contributes for his expertise in construction history. His research activities are concentrated on the techno-economic implications of tall buildings of the present\, the cultural legacy of those from the past\, the history of technology in architecture\, and the processes of design innovation through the advancement of building products and materials. \nPhoto caption: \nOn the edge of Nhill\, across the railroad tracks\, is the former Noske Brothers’ flour mill. According to Richard Cornish writing of his ‘Six reasons to visit Nhill’ in the Sydney Morning Herald\, “Built in 1888\, it became the largest freestanding concrete structure in Australia 20 years later when a massive concrete silo was added. Now abandoned\, the site has a brutal beauty that attracts photographers\, especially at dawn and dusk\, when the dying light of the day wraps itself gradually around its concrete curves.” \n  \nPlease note that\, like all RHSV events\, we serve refreshments from 5:30pm – 6pm at which time the lecture will start and the Zoom-cast will start. When you book a ticket\, you will automatically be sent a confirmation email – please check your Junk or Spam mailbox if this email doesn’t appear in your in-box. 24 hours prior to the event\, we will send the ZOOM log-in details to all those attending via ZOOM.

SUMMARY:Kew Historical Society\, Annual Dickinson Lecture by Dr Rosalie Triolo
DESCRIPTION:Kew Historical Society. Annual Dickinson Lecture; \nRemembering Our State School Teachers and Pupils of Kew and Surrounds: The Home Front and Battle Front\, 1914-18 presented by Dr Rosalie Triolo\nThe Great War profoundly touched the lives of Australian teachers\, school children and local\ncommunities. Many teachers fought and died\, and were joined by their older students. For years after\, the names of those who fell were respectfully displayed on school honor boards\, in honor books and remembered by other commemorative means\, including through the introduction of Anzac Day. \nDr Rosalie Triolo will explore how teachers and school communities were affected by patriotic appeals and activities\, and how they responded to\nthe long years of grim news from Gallipoli\, the Western Front and other sites of training\, fighting and convalescence. \n  \n19 October 2022\nJust Theatre\, Kew Court House\n188 High Street\, Kew VIC 3101\nWednesday 7.30 for 8 pm\nTickets $20\, can be purchased through Boroondara Arts bookings website\, or 9278 4770 or  kch@boroondara.vic.gov.au \n  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture – Working Lives: Stories from the Immigration Museum’s Collection
DESCRIPTION:Working life stories from the past and present told through the Immigration Museum’s diverse collections. \n\nWork remains a cornerstone of identity for many of us. Yet the ways we think about work continues to evolve.  Work can shape and share ideas of community\, gender\, memory\, creativity\, sexuality\, activism\, ethnicity\, and our sense of individual and collective value. Work also acts as a thread that connects us to people\, places\, and other times. \nA new exhibition opening at Immigration Museum\, Working Lives highlights a range of stories from our Museum collections which explore the diversity of our working experiences across time. Curators\, collection managers and community storytellers will reflect on a selection of these stories\, objects and images and what they tell us about how we have collected\, documented and continue to develop our Museum collections through community engagement. \nMelbourne Museum is hosting a great talk based on the exhibition – please note that the exhibition is at the Immigration Museum\, however the talk is being held at the Melbourne Museum \nTickets for the talk can be booked here \n\n\n\n\n$5 / $8 / $10 / $12\n\n\nSpeakers\nMichelle Stevenson\, Head History & Technology Dept \nDeb Tout-Smith\, Senior Curator\, Home & Community Life \nDr Moya McFadzean\, Senior Curator\, Migration & Cultural Diversity \nLorenzo Iozzi\, Manager\, Image Collections \nNyadol Nyuon OAM\, Executive Director\, Sir Zelman Cowan Centre\, Victoria University; former refugee & lawyer\, writer & human rights activist

SUMMARY:Y Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
DESCRIPTION:Was a country girl ready for the harsh life of the YWCA Richmond? \nDoery House\, the YWCA hostel at 353 Church Street\, Richmond\, Victoria\, should have been a home away from home for teenage girls from the country residing there in the late 1960s. Alas\, this was nowhere near reality. Rosalie Webb\, who has written Y Girls Just Wanna Have Fun about her experiences living in the YWCA hostel\, will speak at at  Richmond & Burnley Historical Society event.

SUMMARY:Lost Banyule
DESCRIPTION:Graham Thorley of the Heidelberg Historical Society will join us to reflect on the changing face of the Banyule municipality via its population\, buildings\, infrastructure\, and ways of life. \nBanyule’s rolling hills and valleys\, vegetation and grasslands abound with colourful native birds and wildlife attracting pastoralists\, investors and settlers. \nProperties were established on a grand scale\, including Joseph Hawdon’s “Banyule”\, townships grew and new cultures were attracted. Within a short period of 35 years\, the small village\, first known as Warringal and later as Heidelberg\, had grown from a few scattered houses into a flourishing community. Heidelberg became a Shire in 1871\, then a City in 1934. The City of Banyule was established in 1994. \nPresented by Yarra Plenty Regional Library\nIvanhoe Library & Cultural Hub\,\n275 Upper Heidelberg Road\, Ivanhoe\, Vic. \nImage: Heidelberg Road\, Looking South Ivanhoe\, State Library Victoria

SUMMARY:Cataloguing Clinics 2022
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED – Due to National Day of Mourning Public Holiday for Queen Elizabeth II  \nJillian 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        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:Chinese Market Gardens from Coburg to Bentleigh
DESCRIPTION:Glen Eira Historical Society’s Speaker Series this month is a talk by Terry Young on Chinese Market Gardens from Coburg to Bentleigh.  \nTerry is Vice President of Chinese Australian Family Historians of Victoria (CAFHOV) and spent the first year of his life in a Coburg Market garden. His Chinese father and grandfather were both market gardeners. In order to better understand the life of his forebears\, he has spent recent years researching the life of market gardeners and discovering the locations of market gardens across the suburbs of Melbourne.\nThis presentation will give an overview of the life of this mostly forgotten group\, who had an influence on early 20th century cuisine. They were a critical part of a vast green grocery business network supplying vegetables to Melbourne. Where did they come from and where did they go? This talk will discuss market gardens of Melbourne but also include more recent research of early Chinese market gardens in the Glen Eira District..\nAlso included will be an introduction to the Victorian CEDT Index project which won the Victorian Community History Award 2021.\nSupper provided. Drinks can be purchased from the bar before and after the presentation. Please arrive 7.15pm for 7.30pm start. Bookings not required.

SUMMARY:Fatal Contact: Introduced epidemics among Australia’s Colonial Australian First Nations
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is delighted that Peter Dowling has accepted our invitation to speak on this very topical issue. \nThis talk explores the devastating infectious diseases introduced into the Indigenous populations of Australia after the arrival of the British colonists in 1788. Epidemics of smallpox\, tuberculosis\, influenza\, measles and sexually transmitted diseases swept through the indigenous populations of the continent well into the twentieth century. \nMany historians have acknowledged that introduced diseases caused much sickness and mortality and were part of the extreme population decline following colonisation. But few writers have elaborated further and much of this history is still missing\, even after more than 200 years. Most accounts begin with the 1789 smallpox epidemic at the Sydney settlement and go no further. Our knowledge and understanding of the biological and social consequences surrounding the meeting and contact of these two cultures has not yet been fully investigated. It was\, and still is\, the greatest human tragedy that Australia has ever experienced. \nPeter Dowling is the author of Fatal Contact. How Epidemics Nearly Wiped Out Australia’s First Peoples\, (Monash University Publishing\, 2021).He holds a PhD in archaeology and biological anthropology from the Australian National University. Dr Dowling has written and lectured on Australian history\, archaeology\, Indigenous and European biological contact history and Australian cultural heritage assessment.

SUMMARY:2022 Ernest Scott Lecture Part I: ‘Damaged Goods from Scotland: The long arm of traumatic childhood in convict history’
DESCRIPTION:The School of Historical and Philosophical Studies is pleased to present the first Ernest Scott Prize lecture of 2022: \n‘Damaged Goods from Scotland: The long arm of traumatic childhood in convict history’ \nPresented by Janet McCalman AC\, Emeritus Redmond Barry Distinguished Professor \nAustralia is unique among settler-colonies in having detailed physical and behavourial records of many of its original settlers—the convicts.

We may think that we know these stories and what they mean\, but when we look at our convict ancestors as a population using the tools of historical demography\, there are surprises. Above all that childhood remained the most significant determinant of these troubled lives\, not the trials of the convict system nor the tribulations of adulthood. \nThe Ernest Scott Prize is awarded annually for the most distinguished contribution to the history of Australia or New Zealand\, or the history of colonisation. Part II of the 2022 Ernest Scott lecture prize will be presented by the joint winner\, Lucy Mackintosh on the evening of 13 October 2022. \nIMPORTANT INFORMATION\nDue to current COVID-19 restrictions and University guidelines\, there are a number of conditions currently in place for our in-person events.
