Stuart Macintyre was an eminent figure within the world of
Australian history scholarship for 45 years. This collection of
essays and responses revisits and extends this extraordinary life
of achievement and engagement. Leading scholars write here of
Macintyre's contribution to understanding radicalism and communism,
postwar reconstruction, education and civics, universities,
liberalism, historiography and the history wars. They also tell us
about collegiality and friendship. The practice of history writing
and telling has long been central to the narrative of the nation in
Australia. The Work of History connects us to that past. It raises
the question of what comes next, and re-values Macintyre's
contribution, serving both as a snapshot of the state of the
historian's art, and an introduction to those who come more
recently to this highly contested field.
