内容説明
This series of linked interpretative essays sets out the discipline of Australian studies as an innovative means of discussing humanities and social sciences topics in terms of the study of a particular society. The main problems addressed here include the definition of "new" as opposed to "traditional" societies, and the study of Australian concepts of literature, film, television, politics and history as products of broader cultural conditions. The book discusses the concepts of "nation" and the "national", and how they apply to Australia. It also addresses the role of the Aborigines in Australian national life, along with other topical issues such as class relations and the changing status of women. Each chapter provides an introduction to contemporary discussion in its area, and supplies an indicative bibliography.
