This book brings together long-obscured histories to discuss
Australia's cultural, social, and political diversity in depth. The
history of Australia's migrant and minority print media reveals
extensive evidence for the nation's global connectedness, from the
colonial era to today. A fascinating and complex picture of
Australia's long-term transnational ties emerges from the smaller
enterprises of individuals and communities in the distant and more
recent past. This book explores the authentic voices of minority
groups which challenged the dominant experiences, patterns, and
debates that have shaped Australia.
This edited collection invites the reader to enter the diverse
worlds of Australia's migrant and minority communities through the
latest research on the contemporary printed press, spanning the
mid-nineteenth century to our current day. With a focus on the
rare, radical and foreign-language print culture of multiple and
frequently concurrent minority groups' newspaper ventures, this
volume has two overarching aims: firstly to demonstrate how the
local experiences and narratives of such communities are always
forged and negotiated within a context of globalising forces - the
global within the local; and secondly to enrich an understanding of
the complexity of Australian 'voices' through this medium not only
as a means for appreciating how the cultural heritage of such
communities were sustained, but also for exploring their
contributions to the wider society.
