Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In a new and updated edition, Writing Histories: Imagination and Narration is a book for anyone wanting to write histories that capture the imagination and challenge the intellect. It aims to show that historical narrative and imagination can work together to produce works of history that are a pleasure to read. Nine historians reflect on their work as writers, exploring some of the most difficult and interesting questions any history-writer faces: how to get started, how to find a 'voice', how to enliven a description or a narration, and how to find a worthwhile structure. Contributors also suggest how historians can convey multiple perspectives, 'show' rather than tell, foreground the research process, find inspiration from music, painting and landscape, and use literary techniques such as metaphor. The book will be a useful text for teachers and students in history-writing classes and informal groups. There are suggestions for group exercises, and advice on how to conduct writing workshops. However, many historians, both students and established writers, will continue to write in relative isolation. This book is also intended for them.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Everywhen asks how knowledge systems of Aboriginal people can broaden our understanding of the past and of history. Indigenous ways of knowing, narrating, and re-enacting the past in the present blur the distinctions of time, making all history now, with questions of time and language at the heart of Indigenous sovereignty.Edited by Ann McGrath, Laura Rademaker, and Jakelin Troy, this collection draws attention to every when showing us that history is not as straightforward as some might think.'"Everywhen" is a term less known to most Australians than its close relation, "The Dreaming", but it evokes something of the richness of Indigenous understandings of time, place and spirit. This impressive collection of essays - the work of Indigenous and non-Indigenous authors writing from a range of fields and perspectives - invites us to rethink how we imagine not only Australian history but the nature, meaning and purpose of history itself.' - Frank Bongiorno'A timely book that challenges ways of thinking about the past and of historical practice. It speaks to the individual via first-person narratives and the collective - discussing groups and populations, and weaves the two together in a meaningful, informative manner. Everywhen offers a fresh reflection on languages, histories and practices that readers will find interesting and informative.' - Bronwyn Fredericks'A powerful book about the inter-connectedness of story, language, time, Country, and heart.' - Terri Janke'At the cutting edge of contemporary scholarship, Everywhen highlights the limitations of conventional history and significantly expands our understanding of Indigenous concepts of time. This is a path-breaking collection of essays that is essential reading for Australian and international scholars.' - Mark McKenna Everywhen is a ground-breaking collection about diverse ways of conceiving, knowing, and narrating time and deep history.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What is deep history? How do histories make sovereignty on Country? What is history's future?For Aboriginal people, the past is the present. Competing histories form and transform the lands, peoples and nations of Oceania, from the Pacific Islands, New Guinea and Aotearoa/New Zealand to Australia. In nations impacted by colonialism, such questions are particularly pertinent. First Nations peoples have long made history, living on their Country far longer than the colonial invaders.In Deep History: Country and Sovereignty, edited by Ann McGrath and Jackie Huggins, leading historians and thinkers explore Indigenous histories of caring for places and people over millennia. With contributions from Brenda L. Croft, Anna Clark, Lynette Russell and many more, Deep History considers how stories of the past and the future are inscribed on land, waterways and skies. Walking on Country, gardening and agriculture and rock art are historical practices that continue to play an important role in asserting sovereign rights.While colonial powers crafted historical narratives of entitlement, First Nations people continue to perform deep histories of sovereignty. Deep History offers readers an invitation to walk the Country, to see how it reveals the most crucial of all histories for the planet.'Deep History is a rousing insurrection against the continuing colonial policing of history in Australasia and the Pacific. Indigenous Australian and Pasifika scholars lead in the reframing of our historical narratives, recognising, alongside white scholars, the urgency of truth telling for respectful acknowledgement of First Nations' sovereignty. This postcolonial reframing of the space and tempo of past legacies and contemporary trajectories offers us new and deeper histories for better futures.' Warwick Anderson, author of The Cultivation of Whiteness: Science, Health, and Racial Destiny in Australia'Deep History attempts the timely, dicult, and often discomforting task of blasting open the allied academic disciplines of History and Archaeology to Indigenous ways of representing the past and their sovereign sense of Deep Time. Going beyond the peaceful co-existence models of what was once called "bi-cultural history" in Aotearoa New Zealand and drawing on experiences of settler-colonial rule in the wider world of Oceania, the essays here experiment with a variety of creative strategies to take this challenging conversation forward. The result is an exciting and courageous volume that will speak to all students of decolonisation of knowledge.' Dipesh Chakrabarty, author of Provincializing Europe: Postcolonial Thought and Historical Difference'This wonderful collection of essays displaying the challenges and achievements of Deep History, draws our attention to history's power, for good and ill, and its importance to the sovereignty of a people. From a rich and thought-provoking introduction to the series of exciting, informative, and well-written essays that follow we learn much about the very dierent forms deep history can take a long walk, rock art, stories and practices that nourish Country, scientic studies of changes in land and sea, works of historical ction, and even the conventional historical archive. I came away with a heightened appreciation of the dierent ways that Indigenous and non-Indigenous histories can and sometimes do communicate with one another, and the vital importance of doing so.' Ann Curthoys, co-author of Taking Liberty: Indigenous Rights and Settler Self-Government in Colonial Australia, 18301890'Deep History: Country and Sovereignty has the capacity to open so many new eyes to the profound timelessness of Indig Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
