AUST200: Australian Perspectives: Representing Place, Nation and Identity |
This unit explores the multiple ways in which Australia has been represented through cultural narratives. It focuses on three 'places' in Australia, including Sydney, examining the different ways in which film, literature, television, historical writing, life-writing and other cultural forms have responded to, contested and made sense of the 'new' place that settler Australia has been. It provides training in the inter-disciplinary approaches of Australian Studies, exposing students to representations from many sources and periods. Students who have completed AUST100 will find this of developing interest.
