Introduction: New Directions in Contemporary Australian Poetry?

Disney, Dan; Hall, Matthew

Pages: 1 –11

Our Poetic-Justice

Harkin, Natalie

Pages: 15 –30

[In this personal essay, Harkin does not set out to describe Indigenous poetry in definitive ways. Like the inspirational Indigenous Conversations About Biography project (Te Punga Somerville et al., in Biography 39: 239–47, 2016), she recognizes infinite other starting-points, and diverse voices...

The Intimacy in Survival Poetics

van Neerven, Ellen

Pages: 31 –43

[In these epistolary, ficto-critical responses to Harkin’s lead essay, Ellen van Neerven underscores contemporary Australia as a site of always-already colonial crisis. Calling the names of Indigenous writer-activists into her paper, van Neerven explores complexities between text, body, and...

Response to Natalie Harkin: A Labor of Love

Leane, Jeanine

Pages: 45 –53

[This response to Narungga poet Natalie Harkin’s epistle echoes questions posed by Cherokee academic Daniel Heath Justice: “How do we honor those mysteries that both connect and distinguish us? How do we respect the silences and recognize when and where to tread lightly, if to tread at all?”...

Minter, Peter

Pages: 55 –69

Just Poetry

Whittaker, Alison

Pages: 71 –81

[Alison Whittaker’s “Just Poetry” demonstrates the violence of the colonial episteme, and asks what justice can poetry offer, if or when it is offered outward to an audience outside our community? Surveying texts written by contemporary Indigenous poets including Billy-Ray Belcourt, Romaine...

Bordering, Dissolving, Meeting, Regenerating

Cassidy, Bonny

Pages: 85 –95

[Cassidy writes from the perspective of a settler Australian poet, editor, critic, and academic about the tensions between an historically white Australian poetry culture and material solidarity with First Nations expressions of sovereignty. Responding to key arguments on solidarity by Bundjalung...

Writing Unwriting Writing

Elvey, Anne

Pages: 97 –106

[Through a consideration of ways in which settler poets are unwriting their writing on Country, this essay asks how settler writing can function as an unsettling of ongoing colonial appropriations of Indigenous Country. The essay reads two poems by John Kinsella which he designates “spatial...

“If You Don’t Mind Me Arsing”: Insubordination and Land in Marty Hiatt’s the manifold

Farrell, Michael

Pages: 107 –117

[Rather than read representations of land in terms of the politics they support or contest, this essay asks what happens when we read poems of politics through the entity of the land? Farrell then suggests that this is and continues to be the primary way to read Australian poetry as Australian...

Against Place (the Lyrebird Shows the Way)

Cooke, Stuart

Pages: 119 –131

[In this essay Stuart Cooke argues against poetics of place. He begins by outlining three ways in which place-based thinking perpetuates elements of imperialist practice. Chiefly, thinking about place negates the diverse lives and forces upon which a habitat depends. Drawing on the work of...
