Eliza Hamilton Dunlop (1796-1880) arrived in Sydney in 1838 and
became almost immediately notorious for her poem "The Aboriginal
Mother," written in response to the infamous Myall Creek massacre.
She published more poetry in colonial newspapers during her
lifetime, but for the century following her death her work was
largely neglected. In recent years, however, critical interest in
Dunlop has increased, in Australia and internationally and in a
range of fields, including literary studies; settler, postcolonial
and imperial studies; and Indigenous studies. This stimulating
collection of essays by leading scholars considers Dunlop's work
from a range of perspectives and includes a new selection of her
poetry.
