SUMMARY:WRITING HISTORY GROUP
DESCRIPTION:Dr Cheryl Griffin leads this group which has been meeting since 2020. \nThis group is for people who are tackling writing a history project or two and want a sounding board / source of information / guidance and HELP! Each month from February to November Cheryl convenes the group via Zoom for 90 minutes and they will attack a particular aspect of writing history and also be a sounding board for members problems / queries. Cheryl also has guest writers drop in to talk about their work and how they’ve dealt with thorny issues. \nThis writing group has a cap on the numbers who can join as we don’t want it to get too unwieldy where questions can’t be answered nor feedback given. Ongoing attendance is encouraged. The group dynamic doesn’t work if you can only drop in to a couple of sessions or you don’t have a current project on which you are working. \nSo\, if you are a newcomer and are interested in joining\, please RSVP for the Feb session and we’ll let you know if we have reached the limit of the group or not. \n\n        Tue 28 Feb\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 28 Mar\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 18 Apr\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEST (a week early to avoid Anzac Day)\nTue 23 May\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEST\nTue 27 Jun\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 25 Jul\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 22 Aug\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 26 Sep\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 24 Oct\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 28 Nov\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nPlease download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.\nMonthly: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/tZAkcO-rpjgjE9xC-Djyq2jCCSkdiwv1SZNl/ics?icsToken=98tyKuGspzwsGdyWuRCPRpwIHY_CM-nxiHZEj_pFv1LBCTlCMAnVFdFJNrtoBonjJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84976383998?pwd=T3ZmRGplWjY0SmI4M1hEQVBkQ0JnQT09Meeting ID: 849 7638 3998\nPasscode: 634475

SUMMARY:CURATOR'S TOUR OF GARRYOWEN'S MELBOURNE WITH DR LIZ RUSHEN
DESCRIPTION:THIS SECOND TOUR HAS BOOKED OUT. LIZ WILL GIVE A THIRD CURATOR’S TOUR ON TUESDAY\, 6 FEBRUARY 2024. YOU CAN BOOK TICKETS HERE \nHistorian Dr Liz Rushen will take you behind the scenes of our current exhibition\, Garryowen’s Melbourne which Liz curated. The exhibition grew out of the research Liz had done for her book\, Garryowen Unmasked: The Life of Edmund Finn\, which was launched earlier this year and was aided by her deep knowledge of the RHSV collection and its treasures. \nThe tour will be followed by afternoon tea.\nEdmund Finn (1819-98)\, Irish immigrant\, journalist\, raconteur and eyewitness to the development of the Port Phillip District\, is best known as ‘Garryowen’\, author of The Chronicles of Early Melbourne 1835-1852. His lively writing\, essential to any appreciation of pre-separation Victoria\, brings to life this often-neglected period and place. Yet little has been written about the man himself\, his actions or attitudes\, or the influences that shaped him. \nFinn’s exposure to troubled times in Ireland during his youth was a major influence on his later politics and world view. Migrating to Melbourne in 1841\, this well-educated man lived for more than fifty years in colonial Melbourne\, passionate about his religion\, actively engaged with his community while never forgetting the home he had left behind. This book explores the life of this talented man and the ways in which he contributed to the creation of a new society in Melbourne through his writing\, his speeches and his leadership of the St Patrick’s Society. \n“An important chronicler of early Melbourne\, the Irish journalist Edmund Finn has been unjustly neglected. A detailed study of his life and work is overdue\, and therefore Dr Rushen’s book is to be welcomed.” Professor Elizabeth Malcolm\, FASSA\, FRHistS\, University of Melbourne

SUMMARY:AHA Inaugural Public Fund Lecture 2023
DESCRIPTION:AHA Inaugural Public Fund Lecture 2023\nWHEN: Tuesday 28 November 2023\, 6.00pm to 8.00pm AEDT\nWHERE: Social Sciences Building (A02)\, Lecture Theatre 200\, University of Sydney\nRSVP: Contact executive@theaha.org.au if you have any questions about this event. \nRichard Glover\, ‘History as Inspiration’\nPositive change\, it sometimes seems\, is almost impossible to achieve. The individual feels powerless when it comes to doing something about climate change\, inequality\, indigenous rights and a million other failings. Yet history – both family history and Australia’s wider story – remind us of how sharply things can change. In this talk\, Richard will describe the strange\, almost unrecognisable\, Australia of the 1960s and 1970s\, and also celebrate the National Library’s Trove website\, and how it has given us all the ability to take an express trip into the past…sometimes with the help of our families. \nAbout Richard\nRichard Glover’s most recent book is Best Wishes\, a book about making the world a better\, less annoying place\, one wish at a time. He is also author of The Land Before Avocado – a journey into the bizarre Australia of the late 60s and early 70s – and the family memoir Flesh Wounds\, which won the Readers’ Choice Award as Biography of the Year in the 2016 Australian Book Industry Awards. Richard’s weekly humour column has been published in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age for over thirty years. He writes regularly for The Washington Post and also presents Thank God It’s Friday on ABC local radio. For more: www.richardglover.com.au
