SUMMARY:HUGH ANDERSON LECTURE DELIVERED BY DR ROSS JONES
DESCRIPTION:Renovation or Revision: (re)writing Indigenous and Institutional Histories\nWe are thrilled that Dr Ross L Jones will deliver the 3rd Hugh Anderson Lecture in the RHSV’s Distinguished Lecture series.  \nEric Hobsbawm wrote that national histories comprise ‘anachronism\, omission\,  decontextualization and\, in extreme cases\, lies.’ If we substitute ‘nation’ with ‘university’ does the truth hold\, especially for foundational institutions in settler colonies\, such as the University of Melbourne? In this lecture Dr Jones will take a number of case studies highlighted in his latest publication Dhoombak Goobgoowana and ask what this work has accomplished and whether it encourages a radical re-thinking of the role of institutional histories. Along the way he hopes to explain the strong connections between an eighteenth-century cockney pedestrian\, a leading twentieth-century Australian psychologist\, Indigenous knowledge and Hugh Anderson’s historical project. \n  \nDr Ross L Jones BA (hons) Dip.Ed. (Melbourne) M.Ed.Stud. PhD (Monash)\, Senior Research Fellow in the Indigenous History of the University of Melbourne Project in the Centre for the Study of Higher Education in the Faculty of Education at the University of Melbourne. The outcome of this project is the recent publication of\, Dhoombak Goobgoowana: a History of Indigenous Australia and the University of Melbourne\, volume one: Truth (eds Ross L. Jones\, James Waghorne and Marcia Langton) Melbourne University Press: Carlton\, 2024. Volume 2 ‘Voice’ will be published in 2025. A free e-book is available from the MUP website here. \nRoss studied in the History School and Education Faculty at the University of Melbourne and then taught for two decades in secondary schools in Australia and the United Kingdom. He then completed a Master of Educational Studies and a PhD at Monash University\, the latter on the eugenics movement in Victoria. \nAfter teaching the histories of medicine and biology in the Department of the History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Melbourne\, he took up an ARC postdoctoral position in the History School at the University of Sydney which culminated in\, amongst other publications\, Anatomists of Empire: Race\, Evolution and the Discovery of Human Biology (2020). In 2016 he was awarded the Redmond Barry Fellowship at the State Library of Victoria to write on the history of tuberculosis. He has held honorary positions at the University of Melbourne\, the University of Sydney and La Trobe University variously in Medicine\, Law and History departments. Ross’s research interests and publications range across medical and educational eugenics in Australia and the US and UK; the history of human anatomy\, anthropology and race theory; the development of public education; medical biography and public health policies. He was commissioned by the Melbourne Medical School to write Humanity’s Mirror: 150 years of Anatomy in Melbourne (2007). He has given numerous keynote and invited presentations at local and international conferences. Ross has also been regularly involved in all forms of media as a public historian\, on screen and as a researcher\, including for Who do you think you are? on SBS. He has 90\,000 readers for articles in The Conversation and has been invited to talk for local and national radio on many occasions. He has also prepared and participated in documentaries for ABC Radio National. \n  \nHugh Anderson (1927-2017) was a scholar of formidable breadth\, productivity and versatility. While it is as a folklorist that he is arguably best known both in Australia and abroad\, Anderson’s prolific output also included biography\, bibliography\, history\, school textbooks and documentary collections. His range of interests was very wide: Anderson seemed as comfortable in writing about John Pascoe Fawkner as Squizzy Taylor\, as at home with an Aboriginal gumleaf player and a Sydney street poet as with the exquisite verse of John Shaw Neilson or the stately poetry of Bernard O’Dowd. Anderson’s historical and biographical writing incorporated many of the materials\, perspectives and insights derived from folklore studies\, and he treated literary creativity as central to telling the Melbourne\, Victorian and Australian stories. Anderson’s boundary-riding between history\, biography\, folklore and literature was remarkably productive for him\, and it was not unusual among writers with his radical-nationalist politics in the middle decades of the twentieth century. (An edited version of material written by Professor Frank Bongiorno) \n  \nThis event is offered both in person at the RHSV and also via ZOOM. Those who are attending by ZOOM will be sent their log-in details 24 hours prior to the event. \nAs with all RHSV events\, we serve refreshments from 5:30pm until 6pm when the lecture will start. 6pm is also when the ZOOM broadcast will start.

SUMMARY:The Dressmakers of Auschwitz book talk
DESCRIPTION:At the height of the Holocaust\, twenty-five young inmates of the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp – mainly Jewish women and girls – were selected to design\, cut\, and sew beautiful fashions for elite Nazi women in a dedicated salon. It was work that they hoped would spare them from the gas chambers. Drawing on diverse sources including interviews with the last surviving seamstress\, The Dressmakers of Auschwitz follows the fates of these brave women. \nIn this captivating event\, author and historian Lucy Adlington will join us virtually from the United Kingdom to uncover these stories. In conversation with the Melbourne Holocaust Museum’s Dr Breann Fallon\, Lucy will reveal the bonds of family and friendship that helped these women endure persecution.  \nGuests will have an opportunity to explore the Shrine’s exhibition Trenches to Runway: Military Influences on Modern Fashion before the talk commences. While the exhibition does not explore the themes in The Dressmakers of Auschwitz\, it draws important parallels between the impact of military clothing design and wartime conditions on popular fashion\, tracing these influences from the 1870s to the present day.

SUMMARY:CATALOGUING CLINICS 2024
DESCRIPTION:Join Jillian Hiscock\, the RHSV Collections Manager\, each month in this informative and easy-going Zoom forum on all aspects of cataloguing collections for historical societies. \nIn 2024’s first Cataloguing Clinic for the year\, Jillian will talk about collection management\, what you keep or don’t keep\, when you catalogue material as an archive or a collection and any issues around the actual collection. \nJillian has a different topic each month and is happy to be guided by those who attend as to what they would like covered in upcoming clinics. Bring your questions (no matter the topic) – this is an interactive space where questions are encouraged. The RHSV does not endorse any particular cataloguing software – we believe it is horses for courses – and Jillian will talk about issues that impact on cataloguing whether you are using cataloguing cards or software. \nThe one-hour clinics are free and the Zoom log-in below is used every month in 2024\, however\, we do ask you to register each month as this enables Jillian to send you extra material / links etc after each session. \nThe Cataloguing Clinics in 2024 will be held at \n\nThu 22 Feb 11am – 12noon (AEDT)\nThu 28 Mar 11am – 12noon (AEDT)\nThu 2 May 11am – 12noon (AEST) * this is a week later than normal because of Anzac Day\nThu 23 May 11am – 12noon (AEST)\nThu 27 Jun 11am – 12noon (AEST)\nThu 25 Jul 11am – 12noon (AEST)\nThu 22 Aug 11am – 12noon (AEST)\nThu 26 Sep 11am – 12noon (AEST)\nThu 24 Oct 11am – 12noon (AEDT)\nThu 28 Nov 11am – 12noon (AEDT)\n\nPlease download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.\nMonthly: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/tZYqcO-hqD8uH92SLyLFy8RywYTvMs4EraaZ/ics?icsToken=98tyKuGqqTwsE9KRtByORpwQB4_CM_PwpilbgvoPrzP8LwZKOjHvIdt2JJ9sRP3C \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82776964459?pwd=NmNXVVpVSWxTejRpUDBQUnpNaEQxdz09 \nMeeting ID: 827 7696 4459\nPasscode: 142102 \nIf joining by phone: \nOne tap mobile\n+61370182005\,\,82776964459#\,\,\,\,*142102# Australia\n+61731853730\,\,82776964459#\,\,\,\,*142102# Australia \nDial by your location\n• +61 3 7018 2005 Australia\n• +61 7 3185 3730 Australia\n• +61 8 6119 3900 Australia\n• +61 8 7150 1149 Australia\n• +61 2 8015 6011 Australia \nMeeting ID: 827 7696 4459\nPasscode: 142102 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kdh0GPiJW \n

SUMMARY:Como House of Discovery: Traces of Girlhood
DESCRIPTION:History has left only traces of the experience of girlhood. Yet traces do remain\, poignant and important. They tell the stories of girls and young women who grew up in 19th and early 20th-century Victoria and the central role they played in our society.   \nThis exhibition at Como House in South Yarra will illuminate these traces\, featuring handiwork\, scrapbooks\, writing\, archaeological artefacts and photographs.   \nExploring themes including opportunities and expectations\, work and play\, learning and connections\, Traces of Girlhood brings together the diverse experiences of girls from our past through the things they have left behind.   \nBook tickets for the weekend Open House sessions to view the exhibition at your own pace\, or join a house tour to learn more of the history and stories of Como House & Garden.  \nThis exhibition is generously supported by The Hansen Little Public Humanities Grant\, Faculty of Arts\, University of Melbourne\, and presenting partner Heritage Victoria.
