Taking Tom Murray Home
The winner of the inaugural Banjo Prize, Taking Tom Murray Home is a funny, moving, bittersweet Australian story of fires, families and the restorative power of community. Bankrupt dairy farmer Tom Murray decides he'd rather sell off his herd and burn down his own house than hand them over to the bank. But something goes tragically wrong, and Tom dies in the blaze. His wife, Dawn, doesn't want him to have died for nothing and decides to hold a funeral procession for Tom as a protest, driving 350 kilometres from Yardley in country Victoria to bury him in Melbourne where he was born.

An Archaeology of Australia Since 1788
This volume provides an important new synthesis of archaeological work carried out in Australia on the post-contact period. It draws on dozens of case studies from a wide geographical and temporal span to explore the daily life of Australians in settings such as convict stations, goldfields, whalers' camps, farms, pastoral estates and urban neighbourhoods. The different conditions experienced by various groups of people are described in detail, including rich and poor, convicts and their superiors, Aboriginal people, women, children, and migrant groups. The social themes of gender, class, ethnicity, status and identity inform every chapter, demonstrating that these are vital parts of human e...

This first comparative study of the philosophers and literary critics, Walter Benjamin and Mikhail Bakhtin, focuses on the two thinkers' conceptions of experience and form, investigating parallels between Bakhtin's theories of responsibility, dialogue, and the novel, and Benjamin's theories of translation, montage, allegory, and the aura.
The Importance of British Material Culture to Historical Archaeologies of the Nineteenth Century
Britain was the industrial and political powerhouse of the nineteenth century—the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and the center of the largest empire of the time. With its broad imperial reach—and even broader indirect influence—Britain had a major impact on nineteenth-century material culture worldwide. Because British manufactured goods were widespread in British colonies and beyond, a more nuanced understanding of those goods can enhance the archaeological study of the people who used them far beyond Britain’s shores. However, until recently archaeologists have given relatively little attention to such goods in Britain itself, thereby missing what is often revealing and u...
The Report: Bahrain 2017
Like its Gulf neighbours, Bahrain has continued to offset the effects of the drop in oil prices with a host of measures, including moves towards subsidy reduction, now in place to ease the pressure. Despite the downturn, however, the country has continued to push ahead with many big-ticket projects. Counter-cyclical spending in the energy sector is expected to stand the broader economy in good stead in the years to come, as expansion boosts the country’s refining capacity and provides a reliable supply of fuel for its heavy industries. Indeed, manufacturing continues to play a significant role, with the $3bn project to build a sixth potline for Aluminium Bahrain representing the company’s largest expansion since potline five came on-stream in 2005. The kingdom’s financial sector has long been a dominant player in the region, and despite increasing competition from emerging financial centres in the region, continues to benefit from an advanced regulatory framework, an educated workforce and a relatively low-cost environment.
