The Australian Novel 1830-1980 A Thematic Introduction By: John Scheckter Publisher: Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publishers Print ISBN: 9780820437927, 0820437921 eText ISBN: 9781453910054, 1453910050 Edition: 1st Format: PDF Available from $ 58.95 USD SKU: 9781453910054 This volume introduces the reader to a powerful and rewarding territory: the Australian novel. Both drawing from and rebelling against the power of Europe. Australian writers asserted from the beginning that experience «down under» demands thorough observation and thoughtful expression. Exploration of the vast land, framed by the horrors of penal establishment and challenged by encounters with Aboriginal cultures, produced novels of irony and expectation, cynicism and celebration - works that demonstrate the flexibility and unflinching clarity that remain characteristically Australian down to the postcolonial present.
