The Bohemian Republic
Author: James Gatheral
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000226697
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
In the mid-nineteenth century successive cultural Bohemias were proclaimed in Paris, London, New York, and Melbourne. Focusing on networks and borders as the central modes of analysis, this book charts for the first time Bohemia’s cross-Channel, transatlantic, and trans-Pacific migrations, locating its creative expressions and social practices within a global context of ideas and action. Though the story of Parisian Bohemia has been comprehensively told, much less is known of its Anglophone translations. The Bohemian Republic offers a radical reinterpretation of the phenomenon, as the neglected lives and works of British, Irish, American, and Australian Bohemians are reassessed, the transnational networks of Bohemia are rediscovered, the presence and influence of women in Bohemia is reclaimed, and Bohemia’s relationship with the marketplace is reconsidered. Bohemia emerges as a marginal network which exerted a paradoxically powerful influence on the development of popular culture, in the vanguard of material, social and aesthetic innovations in literature, art, journalism, and theatre. Underpinned by extensive and original archival research, the book repopulates the concept of Bohemianism with layers of the networked voices, expressions, ideas, people, places, and practices that made up its constituent social, imagined, and interpretive communities. The reader is brought closer than ever to the heart of Bohemia, a shadowy world inhabited by the rebels of the mid-nineteenth century.

The Broad Arrow
Author: Jenna Mead
Publisher: Sydney University Press
ISBN: 192089974X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Caroline Leakey, writing as Oliné Keese, published her first and only novel, The Broad Arrow, in 1859. It tells the story of Maida Gwynnham, a young middle-class woman lured into committing a forgery by her deceitful lover, Captain Norwell, and then wrongly convicted of infanticide. The novel’s title describes the arrow that was stamped onto government property, including the clothes worn by convict – a symbol of shame and incarceration. With its ‘fallen woman’ protagonist, its gothic undertones and its exploration of the social and moral implications of the penal system, this little-known novel gives an insight into a significant chapter of Australian history from a uniquely female perspective. In this new critical edition, editor Jenna Mead restores material that was cut when the novel was reissued in a radically abridged version in 1886, restoring for the first time in over a century the complete original text of Leakey’s important work.

Hunted Down and Other Tales by Marcus Clarke

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
A book that looks like it has fallen through time, at least until you open it up. Hunted Down and Other Tales by Marcus Clarke collects and remixes three stories by the Australian author originally published in the early 1870s. The book mimics the size and style of the mini-anthologies Clarke published in his lifetime. The remixed stories, written by Simon Groth and designed by George Saad, are filled with typographic play and self-reference while examining how much (and how little) has changed in the 150-odd years since the Clarke's originals.
