Australian literature began with accounts from early European explorers describing their first contacts with Aboriginal people. Some early works portrayed Aboriginal people in sympathetic or romantic terms. Key themes in Australian literature include Aboriginality, mateship, egalitarianism, democracy, national identity, migration, and the beauty and terror of the Australian bush. Notable early literary works included poems published in the 18th century and the first book published by an Australian in 1819. Aboriginal Australians also contributed to early Australian literature through accounts of their mythology and traditions. Modern Australian authors have explored Aboriginal experiences and national identity in their works.

The brain is the control center of the body that receives messages from senses and internal organs, interprets these messages, and tells the concerned body parts what to do. It has three major parts: the cerebrum controls functions like speech, memory, emotions, and thinking; the cerebellum controls muscle coordination and movement; and the medulla oblongata or brain stem connects the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord. Some disorders of the brain include polio, an infectious disease caused by a virus that can attack the brain and spinal cord, potentially causing paralysis.
The Brain
The brain has three layers called meninges that protect it. It is divided into three main parts - the brain stem, cerebellum, and cerebrum. The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord and controls involuntary functions. The cerebellum receives information about balance and coordinates movement. The largest part, the cerebrum, consists of four lobes and contains billions of neurons that support cognitive functions. The thalamus and hypothalamus are located within the cerebrum and help regulate sensory input and basic body functions. Overall, the brain acts as the body's control center by receiving and sending messages to coordinate both voluntary and involuntary activities.
