Witnessing Australian Stories by Kelly Jean Butler PDF Summary

Book Description: The Australian Nation shows how British and Irish settlers and their descendants have combined to create a distinctive Australian nationality. Partington ranges widely and easily over politics, religion, education, literature, art, music, and sport. He identifies blemishes as well as merits in the Australia created by British and Irish immigrants, and values the legacy derived from their efforts. This work is a meditation on the shaping of time and its impact on living with and understanding atrocity in South Africa in the wake of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). It is an examination of the ways that the institutionalization of memory has managed perceptions of "transition " of events and happenings, of violence and recovery, of the "past" and the "new." The politics of historical truth, of memory, and of justice, play out in unintended ways. There is not only the ongoing struggle for survivors of state terror, but also the ways that the ongoing sense of injustice, the emptiness of reconciliation, and the fracturing of hope remain embedded in everyday life.
