Urbanizing Frontiers
Author: Penelope EdmondsPublisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774859199
Category : History

Pages : 331
Book Description
Frontiers were not confined to the bush, backwoods, or borderlands. Towns and cities at the farthest reaches of empire were crucial to the settler colonial project. Yet the experiences of Indigenous peoples in these urban frontiers have been overshadowed by triumphant narratives of progress. This book explores the lives of Indigenous peoples and settlers in two Pacific Rim cities � Victoria, British Columbia, and Melbourne, Australia. Built on Indigenous lands and overtaken by gold rushes, these cities emerged between 1835 and 1871 in significantly different locations, yet both became cross-cultural and segregated sites of empire. This innovative study traces how these spaces, and the bodies in them, were transformed, sometimes in violent ways, creating new spaces and new polities.

Book Description
Examination of the rumour turned legend that a white woman was kidnapped by Aborigines in the Gipps Land bush during the 1840s. Emphasises the legend's role as a justification for the settlers to go out and clear the land of 'savages'. Explores contemporary concerns about Australian identity and black-white relations. Uses the legend as a case study of settler society colonisation in its treatment of indigenous peoples and its political development. Includes maps, illustrations, notes, bibliography and index. Author has a PhD in English and has published various articles in scholarly journals, including a number on this legend.
