Women and the Bush: Forces of Desire in the Australian Cultural Tradition
ISBN: 9780521368162 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Images of Australian identity, and of Australian nationhood, are social and cultural constructs.

This is a specifically Australian conception of the battle between Man and Nature. Throughout the myths, traditions and literary creations of Australia are underlying assumptions about gender and sexual difference: assumptions about masculinity and femininity within the nationalist tradition, which affect perceptions today. In this new critique, Kay...

The Cartographic Eye: How Explorers Saw Australia
ISBN: 9780521577915 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about the mythologies of land exploration, and about space and the colonial enterprise in particular.

It will be a crucial text for readers in cultural, postcolonial and Australian studies.
