Book Description
Excerpt from Musings in Maoriland Here is ever a danger of confounding analogy and identity. If it is said a State is an organ ism growing, developing as other living bod ies grow and develop, - one must not assume that a nation passes through the same phases and has all the characteristics Of an individual. It is a useful analogy to use - to say the State is an organism. There is, however, no identity, but Often dissimilarity, between the growth of a person and that Of a nation. With this caution, however, it will help us in briefly tracing the intellectual history Of New Zealand - to speak.

Maoriland
Author: Jane Stafford
Publisher: Victoria University Press
ISBN: 9780864735225
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
This critical examination of Maoriland literature argues against the former glib dismissals of the period and focuses instead on the era’s importance in the birth of a distinct New Zealand style of writing. By connecting the literature and other cultural forms of Maoriland to the larger realms of empire and contemporary criticism, this study explores the roots of the country’s modern feminism, progressive social legislation, and bicultural relations.

Galleries of Maoriland
Author: Roger Blackley
Publisher: Auckland University Press
ISBN: 1776710215
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Galleries of Maoriland introduces us to the many ways in which European colonists to New Zealand discovered, created, propagated, and romanticised the Maori world summed up in a popular nickname describing New Zealand; Maoriland. But Blackley shows that Maori were not merely passive victims: they too had a stake in this process of romanticisation. What, this book asks, were some of the Maori purposes that were served by curio displays, portrait collections, and the wider ethnological culture? Galleries of Maoriland looks at Maori prehistory in European art; the enthusiasm of settlers and Maori for portraiture and recreations of ancient life; the trade in Maori curios; and the international exhibition of this colonial culture. By illuminating New Zealand's artistic and ethnographic economy, this book provides a new understanding of our art and our culture.

History, heritage, and colonialism
Author: Kynan Gentry
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1784991937
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
History, heritage, and colonialism explores the politics of history-making and interest in preserving the material remnants of the past in late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century colonial society, looking at both indigenous pasts and those of European origin. Focusing on New Zealand, but also covering the Australian and Canadian experiences, it explores how different groups and political interests have sought to harness historical narrative in support of competing visions of identity and memory. Considering this within the frames of the local and national as well as of empire, the book offers a valuable critique of the study of colonial identity-making and cultures of colonisation. This book offers important insights for societies negotiating the legacy of a colonial past in a global present, and will be of particular value to all those concerned with museum, heritage, and tourism studies, as well as imperial history.
