The Cowpastures, Just like an English landscape
The early colonial European settlers in the Cowpastures were the key players in the story of creating
an English-style landscape along the Nepean River. The settlers took possession of the countryside
from the Dharawal Aboriginal people and re-made it in their own vision of the world. They
constructed a cultural landscape made up of an idealised vision of what they had left behind in the
‘Old Country’. For the European settlers the new continent, and particularly the bush, had the
elements of the Gothic with its grotesque and the demonic, and the English-style landscape
aesthetic they created was one attempt to counter these forces. Settlers used the aesthetic to assist
the creation of a new story on an apparently blank slate and in the process dispossessed and
displaced the Indigenous occupants. The new landscape was characterised by English placenames,
English farming methods and English settlement patterns, with only cursory acknowledgement of
Indigenous occupation. The early settlers had such a profound impact on the countryside that their
legacy is still clearly identifiable today even after 200 years.

Washington Irving Overview
Washington Irving was born in 1783 in New York City. He was the youngest of 11 children born to Scottish-English immigrant parents. He trained as a lawyer but practiced briefly. In 1809, he published A History of New York, which was designed solely for entertainment rather than teaching moral lessons. His fiancée died in 1809, which caused him melancholy for the rest of his life. He traveled throughout Europe, where he wrote The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, which included "Rip Van Winkle" and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." He is considered the first American writer to popularize the short story genre.
Freemasonry 255 robert burns & freemasonry 1921- wright d
This document discusses Robert Burns' involvement with Freemasonry. It notes that Burns was initiated into the St. David's Lodge in Tarbolton in 1781 at age 23. Freemasonry then became a great influence on him. The document outlines how Burns' interactions with brethren of higher social standing through the Lodge helped refine his manners and stimulate his intellectual abilities. Freemasonry also inspired his muse and nurtured his love of independence and brotherhood. Burns enthusiastically participated in Freemasonry wherever he went.
Freemasonry 255 robert burns & freemasonry 1921- wright d
Burns was initiated into Freemasonry in 1781 at the age of 23 by the St. David's Lodge in Tarbolton. He became an enthusiastic Mason and his involvement in the Craft greatly influenced his development. He held the role of Depute Master for the St. James' Lodge in Tarbolton and was passionate about the Masonic ideals of brotherhood and philanthropy. While Freemasonry provided Burns social and intellectual stimulation, some critics argue it also exposed him to environments conducive to excess. Overall, membership in the Masonic lodges was profoundly formative for Burns both personally and as a poet.
Esritores Irlandeses
The document provides biographical information on several writers who were born in, lived in, or currently live in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Rudyard kipling
Rudyard Kipling was an English author born in 1865 in Bombay, India. He is known for works like The Jungle Book and Kim. Some of his most famous poems include "If—" and "Gunga Din." Kipling drew much inspiration from his time living in India as a child and working as a journalist there as a young adult. He went on to receive the 1907 Nobel Prize in Literature, making him the first English-language recipient. Kipling lived most of his later life in Sussex, England, where his home is now a museum dedicated to his works. He had a prolific career writing short stories, poems, and novels, but died in 1936 at the age of 70 in London.
Australian Magazines Surviving The 19 Th Century

Walter scott
Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a Scottish novelist and poet who is considered the inventor of the historical novel. He was born in Edinburgh and developed a love of Scottish history from his mother, who would tell him stories that stirred his enthusiasm. Some of his most famous works include the Waverly series, Ivanhoe, and Rob Roy. Scott is credited with creating the genre of the historical novel by combining elements of regional speech, settings, character development, and romantic themes treated in a realistic manner. His novels played a role in rehabilitating perceptions of Scottish culture.

History as journalistic discourse in 19th-century British local newspapers
This paper argues that the local weekly newspaper was the most popular platform for the publishing of history in the 19th century. This finding, based on quantitative content analysis, has far-reaching implications for the history of publishing, for historiography, and for the history of journalism.
The paper gives a brief background to the scale and content of local newspaper publishing, presents the quantitative evidence for newspapers’ leading role in history publishing, and compares the quantity of content published in newspapers, magazines and books. A typology of historical content in local newspapers is offered, with examples including chronologies, news of archaeological finds, dedicated ‘Notes and Queries’-style columns, folklore, dialect and wholesale scholarly transcription of historical sources. While historical topics from across the world were covered, the focus was on local history.
This huge mass of history writing was produced mainly by gentleman amateurs, local newspaper editors, and readers, all part of a ‘local history community’ (Kidd). These individuals also wrote books and articles for transactions of learned societies and for popular magazines. Local history material often moved from the columns of local newspapers into books, usually published from the same newspaper office. The scale of 19th-century local newspaper publishing and the popularity of local history articles, suggests that historical writing, often of a high scholarly standing, reached all levels of society, regardless of class, gender or literacy. The volume of history (and many other genres) disseminated in this way places the weekly local newspaper at the centre of 19th-century writing and publishing.
The paper engages with the conference theme in two ways. First, history is part of the language of journalism as a discursive field (Zelizer and Tenenboim-Weinblatt, eds), seen in historical context, chronologies and commemorations, for example. These and other journalistic discourses gain added power when allied to local identities, for which memory and continuity are central. Place, and sense of place, deserve more attention in book history. Second, the centrality of newspapers and magazines in 19th-century publishing once again highlights the difficulties of the term ‘history of the book’. The bulk of 19th-century publishing -- in terms of material objects produced, volume of material of almost any genre published, numbers of writers and numbers of readers -- is in fact the publishing of newspapers and magazines, with books in distant third place. But the language of ‘book history’ misleads us and distorts our scholarship.
