SUMMARY:ROSS MCMULLIN ON "LIFE SO FULL OF PROMISE"
DESCRIPTION:An event with Ross McMullin is always much anticipated.  Ross is an award-winning historian and biographer\, a renowned storyteller\, an entertaining speaker\, and a longstanding RHSV member. \nHis multi-biography Farewell\, Dear People was awarded the Prime Minister’s Prize for Australian History\, and in his new sequel Life So Full of Promise\, Ross has again combined prodigious research and narrative flair in a collection of interwoven family stories about forgotten Australians who had radiant potential. \nThe rich cast of characters in Life So Full of Promise includes a popular doctor\, a brilliant cricketer (Ross played first-grade District cricket in Melbourne)\, and an exceptionally talented barrister who was a potential prime minister. \nWith their families and friends also conspicuous in the narratives\, Life So Full of Promise is a revealing window into this defining era for Australia. It illuminates what the war was like at home and at the sharp end. Life So Full of Promise emulates Farewell\, Dear People in providing insights into the experiences of Australians before\, during and after the war\, whether they were combatants or civilians\, or soldiers’ wives or parents.                                            \nLife So Full of Promise has been shortlisted for the Mark & Evette Moran Nib Literary Award. Barry Jones reviewed the book in The Age: “His scholarship is impeccable\, he writes like an angel … and his narrative gift is Blaineyesque”. \nRoss’s books\, including Life so Full of Promise\, are available through the RHSV bookshop. \nhttps://rossmcmullin.com.au \n  \nHousekeeping \nThis event will be hybrid – both delivered in person at the RHSV’s Drill Hall home and via Zoom. For those booking Zoom tickets\, the log-in details will be sent to you 24 hours prior to the event. \nFrom 5:30pm to 6pm\, as with most RHSV events\, we’ll be serving refreshments before the lecture starts at 6pm. \nAn automatic confirmation email is sent to you on booking – please check your Spam or Junk Mail in-box as these emails often go astray.

SUMMARY:CONVICTION POLITICS: A DIGITAL INVESTIGATION OF THE CONVICT ROOTS OF AUSTRALIAN DEMOCRACY
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised by the Descendants of Convicts Group Inc (DOCS) together with the RHSV. \nConviction Politics is an international digital history project exploring the impact of radicals and rebels transported as political convicts to Australia on their place of exile\, and the patterns of collective resistance by the mass of unfree convict women and women to the exploitation of their forced labour. \nIn the 18th and 19th centuries\, thousands of democratic reformers\, rural labour protestors\, Irish freedom fighters and revolutionaries were exiled as political prisoners to Britain’s Australian colonies\, where Indigenous people opposing dispossession joined them as prisoners. As convicts\, they resisted exploitation through inventive solidarity in the face of coercion\, and in turn changed the political direction of the colonies. \nConviction Politics traces how these convicts and their ideas helped lay the foundations of egalitarianism\, political and social democracy\, unions and workers rights and national self-determination in Australia and the UK. Through archival research\, data analysis and visualisation\, documentary\, animation and song\, the project is producing an innovative suite of digital content exploring these stories and their contemporary resonance. \nBased at Monash University\, Conviction Politics collaborates with researchers from universities in Australia\, the UK and Ireland\, and is partnered with a range of museums\, archives\, and unions. Join us for the documentary screening and panel discussion afterwards \nProject leader\, Associate Professor Tony Moore from Monash University\, will take us through the project’s discoveries\, media and exhibition\, including screening a selection of short documentaries. Tony will explain how Conviction Politics overturns the orthodoxy of how we think about convict Australia. The project reveals how Australia’s first ‘unfree’ workforce resisted exploitation and subordination through inventive solidarity in the face of coercion\, while a vanguard of rebels\, liberal pamphleteers\, industrial protestors and radical agitators changed the political direction of the Australian colonies. \nTony Moore is author of Death or Liberty: Rebels and Radicals Transported to Australia 1788-1868 (2010)\, adapted as a television documentary of the same name (2015)\, Dancing with Empty Pockets: Australia’s Bohemians since 1860 (2012) and The Barry McKenzie Movies (2005). Tony has had previous careers as a documentary maker at the ABC and academic commissioning editor at Pluto Press and Cambridge University Press. \nAfternoon tea will be served at 3pm. \nOn booking you will be sent an automatically-generated confirmation email – these sometimes go astray so please check your Junk Mail or Spam Mail folder. For those attending on ZOOM you will be sent the ZOOM log-in details 24 hours before the event.
