Abstract:
'Communism' and 'Ireland' remain, as a legacy of Cold War binarisms, two subjects that rarely converge in Australian historiography. This article explores the place of 'Ireland' in the political imagination of the nascent Australian Communist movement between its fractured formation in 1920 and the end of the Irish Civil War in 1923. In challenging nation-centric and essentialist treatments of 'the Irish' in Australian political history, it foregrounds a diffuse politicisation around 'Ireland' itself that transcended identitarian ontologies. This article argues that, examined within the ambivalent translation of early interwar radical cosmopolitanisms in a white settler labour movement, 'Ireland' was a directly 'international', if racialised, coordinate in the imaginative geography of early Australian communism. Although the 'Irish Question' circulated within the existing networks of the Comintern, this contest was also produced within other 'routes' on the Anglophone peripheries of the Communist world. The mobile lives of Peter Larkin, Esmonde Higgins and Harry Arthur Campbell, and the momentary alliance of the Communist Party of Australia with the Sydney Irish National Association during the 1923 'Irish envoys' tour, allow for these connections to be reframed in non-primordialist terms within border-crossings and transnational encounter. An investigation of the 'Irish Question' within transgressions of cultural boundaries, instead of 'shared' national histories, can facilitate its extrication from Cold War narratives of ossified 'identity'.

Abstract:
This article contributes to scant literature on Irish dance praxis in Australia by demonstrating how the confluence of global and local factors have permitted Irish dance in Australia to step to the fore. Irish step dance is a globally recognizable genre that has dispersed through, first, the migration of Irish people throughout the world and, more recently, through itinerant theatrical troupes. In Australia, a significant node of the Irish diaspora, Irish step dance has managed to achieve unusual prominence in a dance landscape that has traditionally been dominated by genres from within the Western concert dance canon. Drawing on both extant literature and ethnographic data, this article examines three threads from the narrative of Irish dance in Australia. First, the general choreographic landscape of the nation is described, showing that the preferences of Australian dance audiences have been shaped to privilege styles that are popular onstage and on-screen, with the resulting marginalization of culturally-specific genera. Second, localized effects of the global contagion instigated by the development of the stage show Riverdance are explored. Here, the domains of aesthetics and decisive marketing strategies are discussed, showing how engagement with Australian audiences was achieved. Finally, the article introduces an idiosyncratic localized influence, the children’s musical group The Wiggles, which was conceived independently but which also promoted interest and enthusiasm for Irish dance in Australia by engaging with young children and presenting propriety of Irish dance as available to all, regardless of cultural ancestry.

Abstract:
AbstractThe 1924–5 fundraising tour in Australia by republican activists, Kathleen Barry and Linda Kearns, although successful, has received little attention from historians, more focused on the controversial tour of Fr Michael O'Flanagan and J. J. O'Kelly the previous year. While O'Flanagan and O'Kelly's tour ended with their deportation, Barry and Kearns successfully navigated the different agendas of Irish-Australian political and social groups to organise speaking engagements and raise considerable funds for the Irish Republican Prisoners’ Dependants' Fund. The women were experienced republican activists, however on their Australian tour they placed themselves firmly in traditional female patriotic roles, as nurturers and supporters of men fighting for Irish freedom. This article analyses their strategic use of gendered expectations to allay suspicions about their political agenda to successfully raise money and negotiate with political and ecclesiastical leaders.

Abstract:
This article gives an overview, and brief history, of Irish studies in Australia and New Zealand, within an academic context and beyond. It surveys major publications and formal initiatives, but also accounts for why Irish studies has been less vibrant in Australian than other Anglophone countries in the Irish diaspora. The Irish in Australia have a distinct history. Yet, in recent years and in popular understanding, they have also sometimes been absorbed into ‘white’ or Anglo-Celtic Australia. This makes their claims to distinctiveness less pressing in a society seeking to come to terms with its migrant and dispossessed indigenous populations.

Abstract:
Abstract Efforts to transcend island histories in Irish historiography have predominantly centered a narration of white settler pasts as an outer boundary of Irish history. This article works through the disjunctions between differently situated transnational turns in Irish and Australian historiographies by interrogating metaphors of extension, including “Greater Ireland” in the former historiography. It proposes that to decenter the nation as a historical unit, transnational Irish history requires a critical tension with white settler, and not only Irish, methodological nationalisms. The article surveys the critical possibilities presented by the transnational turn in Irish historiography while questioning its limits, with attention to the paradigm of a transnational Irish revolution. It then flags possible directions for a closer dialogue between transnational Irish history and postnational historiographies of white settler colonialism. An unsettling of discrete historiographical boundaries remains a necessary condition for tracing histories of Ireland beyond, below, and outside the nation.

Abstract:
This paper compares the literary careers of two Irish immigrant-poets who lived and wrote for a significant part of their lives in nineteenth-century Brisbane, using the comparison to explore some of the different ways in which Irish literary tradition could reinvent itself in a new physical and cultural environment. Early Brisbane is not an especially fertile field for the study of Irish-Australian literary writing, perhaps surprisingly, given the strong Irish presence in Brisbane society during the first half of the twentieth century. One explanation may be that whereas the Irish had a strong presence in the military and the labouring classes in the Moreton Bay Colony, the institutions of government, public education and the press — the chief nurseries of Culture in most settler societies — were dominated by the English and Scottish.

Abstract:
Migrant histories necessarily consider human journeys to new social and cultural realities, marked by discourse around integration and identity. The historiography of the Irish in Australia, dominated by historian Patrick O'Farrell, has lost its fundamental engagement with ordinary migrant experience and fixated on a narrative of nationalism, hierarchy, and elitist politics. This thesis examines the experience of the Irish Christian Brothers in early twentieth-century Australia and the playing of Irish handball in their colleges across the country. In doing so, it seeks a new understanding of Irish-Australian identity through the complex relationship of Catholicism, education, and sport; questioning the extent to which Gaelic games assuaged the transformative and dislocational processes of migration beyond O'Farrell's notion of Irish integration as an imperative of ‘Australianise or perish’.

Abstract:
This thesis looks at the processes of memory, imagination and cultural development in a single family of Irish extraction. The line in question derives from a western Irish sept known as the Ui Fiachrach, whose symbol was that of the raven. The first chapter deals with the origins of the Ui Fiachrach and the impossibility of reaching an “Ur text”. It also critiques the notion of culture, noting that cultural difference (often defined on terms such as ‘blood’) can be a source of conflict. Finally, the problematic nature of the term ‘authenticity’ was explored. The second chapter is concerned with the politics of ethnographic representation and the uses of English and Gaelic as representational tools. The third chapter focuses on the differend that existed up till the later part of the 20th century against oral cultures (including Irish culture) and the imagination, as opposed to the realist/positivist/social Darwinist paradigm. The fourth chapter takes into account the notions of alterity and ambivalence: a brief history of prejudice against the Irish and the dilemma of preserving one’s culture versus fitting in. The fifth chapter examined the source material gained from research which represents a core sample of my family’s collective memory. The limits of storytelling were delineated, and the motifs classified into themes. The sixth chapter showed how there is considerable scope and play in the symbol of the raven, in stark contrast to stereotypes typified by Poe’s Raven. In such play is the potential to reclaim the raven as a positive symbol. The seventh chapter looked at the common characteristics between the visual Irish imagination and the modern genre of magic realism. It also examined the internal dynamics of, and the potential for, continued cultural development into the 3rd millennium.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an exploration of ancestral narratives in the fiction of Thomas Keneally and Christopher Koch. Initially, ancestry in literature creates an historical relationship which articulates the link between the past and the present. In this sense ancestry functions as a type of cultural memory where various issues of inheritance can be negotiated. However, the real value of ancestral narratives lies in their power to aid in the construction of both personal and communal identities. They have the potential to transform these identities, to transgress “natural” boundaries and to reshape conventional identities in the light of historical experience. For Keneally, ancestral narratives depict national forbears who “narrate the nation” into being. His earlier fictions present ancestors of the nation within a mythic and symbolic framework to outline Australian national identity. This identity is static, oppositional, and characterized by the delineation of boundaries which set nations apart from one another. However, Keneally’s more recent work transforms this conventional construction of national identity. It depicts an Irish-Australian diasporic identity which is hyphenated and transgressive: it transcends the conventional notion of nations as separate entities pitted against one another. In this way Keneally’s ancestral narratives enact the potential for transforming identity through ancestral narrative. On the other hand, Koch’s work is primarily concerned with the intergenerational trauma causes by losing or forgetting one’s ancestral narrative. His novels are concerned with male gender identity and the fragmentation which characterizes a self-destructive idea of maleness. While Keneally’s characters recover their lost ancestries in an effort to reshape their idea of what it is to be Australian, Koch’s main protagonist lives in ignorance of his ancestor’s life. He is thus unable to take the opportunity to transform his masculinity due to the pervasive cultural amnesia surrounding his family history and its role in Tasmania’s past. While Keneally and Koch depict different outcomes in their fictional ancestral narratives they are both deeply concerned with the potential to transform national and gender identities through ancestry.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis consists of two parts: a documentary film and a written exegesis. The film, Secret family recipes, explores a personal experience of migration and documents issues of personal identity within broader family, community, and intercultural contexts. The documentary uses the device of cake baking to provide a narrative spine for the journey of exploration. The filmmaker, Enda Murray, journeys from Sydney back to his birthplace in Ireland in 2007 and helps his elderly mother bake her annual Christmas cake. In the course of this journey, he talks to his mother and peers about their memories of growing up and ponders on his own early family life in Ireland. He then returns to Australia and bakes a cake with his two daughters (ages six and four), using this occasion to reflect on his current family situation. The exegesis provides a background context in Irish-Australian history and culture. It examines the major influences on the author’s work as an artist and draws on a range of literature to critique the production of Secret family recipes against the context of Irish documentary, Irish migrant documentary, and Irish-Australian accented cinema. The exegesis argues that Secret family recipes uses elements of ‘performative documentary’, defined by Bill Nichols as documentary that includes the author as a performing character in the film. It also argues that the documentary uses elements of ‘domestic ethnography’, a term coined by Michael Renov to describe filmmaking that explores the complexity of communal or blood ties between the subject and his or her family. This is a form of supplementary autobiographical practice where the subject constructs self-knowledge through the familial other. This research project proposes a new framework of ‘domestic performativity’ within documentary that combines elements of performative documentary and domestic ethnography. This thesis argues that domestic performativity allows a stylised representation of the subject’s voice and combines elements of documentary and ethnography to produce an enhanced autobiographical product.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the experiences of contemporary Irish migrants in Australia by exploring migration, settlement and return migration amongst the research project’s respondents. The recent period is important because it encompassed both a technological revolution in the growth, availability and affordability of travel and communications technology and because it saw an increase in the Irish population in Australia, of 39 per cent, from 2006 to 2014. Since the mid-1990s there has been a major shift in immigration policy whereby concentration on permanent migration, particularly the family unit, has been replaced with a proliferation of visa classes that promote temporary entry in line with global trends. Significant changes, such as the introduction of the 457 visa and the extension of the Working Holiday Maker (WHM) visa, have meant that the temporary intake has become more prominent. These changes also encouraged an investigation of the migration experiences of Irish people to Australia as these visas, despite being elements of the temporary visa programme, permitted a pathway to permanent residency in Australia. This mixed methods study was conducted through two surveys (n=1,560) disseminated through social media platforms and in-depth participant interviews (n=67). Findings were benchmarked against secondary data from national data agencies and the Émigré study, University College Cork, Ireland. The surveys allowed Irish people resident in Australia and those who had left to describe their visa use, migration motivation and settlement experience. Results found that the majority of immigrants entered Australia on a temporary, long-stay visa, and most did not intend to settle permanently in Australia. This intention changed quite rapidly after arrival and most WHMs transitioned to a 457 visa as the most typical ‘next step’ on the pathway to permanent residency. New Irish arrivals tended to seek out Irish friendship groups or socialise with other migrants and this was ascribed to three things: cultural comfort provided by other Irish people, experiential similarities with other migrants and the perception that Australians had long-established friendship groups which were difficult to penetrate. Contemporary Irish migrants were a ‘good fit’ for Australia’s labour market and career progression was one of the most notable benefits of migration. However, increased satisfaction with job, salary and career prospects post-migration did not prevent some respondents choosing to leave Australia. The majority of those who departed returned to Ireland, with departure usually family motivated: migrants either wanted to be nearer ageing parents or wanted their children to experience a childhood similar to their own close to extended family members. Analysis showed a high level of engagement during migration through mobile technology with family, local community and with regional and national political, economic and social developments in Ireland. Methodologically, this study contributes to the emerging and growing field of research using and investigating social media. Theoretically, this research demonstrates two migration theory threads at play for the recent Irish immigrant cohort in Australia – one related to the process of migration which adheres closely, but not perfectly, to Neoclassical II economic theory and another, a cultural migration process, related to transnationalism. This thesis expands our understanding of transnationalism amongst the Irish in Australia where more recent migrants have enacted a strong trend towards ‘transnationalism from the ground up’ in their use of multi-level connections to Ireland locally, regionally and nationally through electronic media and other online fora. Exploration of the empirical data demonstrates a strong need to participate even virtually in life in Ireland and further, a keen awareness of everyday happenings which was not available to migrants in pre-internet times. In this context, transnationalism and transnational practice has the potential to become more prevalent for first and deeper generations of the Irish diaspora. Overall, since 2000, the contemporary Irish migrant experience in Australia has been a strongly positive one. The significance of the findings lies predominantly in the visa used to enter Australia. The rapid transition to a longer-term visa and ultimately to permanent residency suggests that visa use was dictated by expediency rather than design. Even those who entered on a permanent visa did not always intend to settle in Australia. Recent changes to Australia’s temporary visa programme, namely the replacement of the 457 visa with the Temporary Skills Shortage (TSS) visa will likely lead to different outcomes in the future.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the writing of Irish identity in Australia to explore how nineteenth-century Australian-born women writers negotiated their Irish emigrant heritage. A gap in knowledge about Irish women's emigrant experiences and those of their descendants provides an opportunity to investigate the translation of the Irish emigrant experience from the perspectives of first-born Australian daughters. A critical analysis of the writing histories of Mary Eliza Fullerton, Mary Grant Bruce and Marie Pitt (McKeown) will demonstrate the fragility of national identity in terms of the cultural and symbolic language used to define Irish emigrant and Australian settler culture identity between the late nineteenth-to-mid-twentieth centuries. The thesis provides an alternative reading of national cultures and histories to show how each writer used images of Irish national culture to clarify and elaborate notions of home in their Australian writing.

Abstract:
The Australian and American labor movements attracted the support of many Irish Catholic immigrants. Yet in Australia, the relationship between the Catholic community and organized labor was never an easy one. State funding of church schools was a perennial problem: Catholic leaders demanded it, while the Australian Labor Party (ALP) equivocated over the issue. This chapter investigates two further issues that also seriously tested the relationship: one involving race, the other nationalism. In the 1890s, the labor movement supported a ban on “colored” immigration, yet the Catholic Church aspired to play a leading role in missions to China. In debates around immigration restriction, Cardinal Moran of Sydney therefore sought to avoid offending the Chinese by attacking instead British attempts to dictate Australia’s immigration policy. During World War I, the ALP, which supported Britain and the empire, found the rise of anti-British republicanism in Ireland a difficult issue to manage. As a result, although sympathetic to Irish grievances, labor newspapers were very selective in their reporting and sought to impose a class, rather than a nationalist, interpretation on events. In both these cases conflict was contained, and it was not until the 1950s that a major split involving Catholics and the ALP occurred, this time over the issue of communism.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the radical Irish Buddhist monk U Dhammaloka’s trial for sedition in Moulmein and subsequent court appeal in Rangoon, setting these in the wider context of Burmese, Indian, and imperial politics. It explores the reasons for his apparent flight to Australia after his binding-over was completed, attempts by the Burmese police to pursue him there, and the report of his death in Melbourne. It also explores his connections with Australian Theosophy and temperance and a possible link to Thursday Island. The chapter reflects on Dhammaloka’s significance in terms of his personal consistency as a Buddhist, the challenge social movements in his time faced in trying to see beyond the horizon of colonialism, and the plebeian cosmopolitanism exemplified by Dhammaloka himself, which would soon become forgotten with the rise of ethnically based nation-states.

It considers Kelly as social bandit and homo sacer, Irish rebel and Australian myth, through a variety of versions of the Kelly story, from Kelly’s own Jerilderie Letter up to and including Peter Carey’s quasi-Joycean reworking of Kelly’s life in an Hiberno-English ‘language of the outlaw.’ Again, outlawry as defined in law is read here against other forms of legal exclusion: the exclusions that create the Australian colonies via transportation for convicts, a practice not unlike the previous legal punishment of banishment (akin to outlawry); the non-recognition of Indigenous sovereignty and tenure; and the exclusion of Aboriginal Australians from law, rendering them de facto outlaws.
