SUMMARY:Australia‚Äôs Gifted Lost Generation of World War I
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr Ross McMullin\nRoss McMullin‚Äôs latest book\, Farewell\, Dear People: Biographies of Australia‚Äôs Lost Generation\,  contains extended biographies of ten extraordinary but long forgotten  men whose loss was devastating to the nation as well as to their  families. \nDr McMullin‚Äôs illustrated presentation will examine the remarkable stories he has retrieved. \nCost: Members Free \n$10.00 Non-Members \nFor Australia\, a new nation with a relatively small population\, the   death of 60\,000 soldiers during the Great War was calamitous. As a   result\, Australians evaluating the consequences of the conflict have   tended to focus\, not surprisingly\, on the collective impact of the   numbing number of losses. \nThat there must have been exceptional individuals among them has been   implicitly understood\, but these special Australians are unknown  today.  Ross McMullin‚Äôs latest book\, Farewell\, Dear People: Biographies of Australia‚Äôs Lost Generation\,   contains extended biographies of ten extraordinary but long forgotten   men whose loss was devastating to the nation as well as to their   families. \nDr McMullin‚Äôs illustrated presentation will examine the remarkable stories he has retrieved. \nGeoff McCrae\, the book‚Äôs first biography\, was a budding architect   from Melbourne‚Äôs best-known creative dynasty who combined an endearing   personality with his family‚Äôs flair for writing and drawing. \nThere is also an internationally acclaimed medical researcher; a   Western Australian Rhodes scholar assured of a shining future in the law   and/or politics; a popular farmer who became the inspiration for the   celebrated film Gallipoli; a military officer described by his   brigadier as potentially an Australian Kitchener; an engineer who   excelled during Mawson‚Äôs Antarctic mission; a rising Labor star; a   talented barrister with a vivid personality; a Tasmanian footballer who   dazzled at the highest level; and a visionary vigneron from South   Australia.Historian and biographer Ross McMullin has written extensively   about Australia in World War I and Australian political history. \nDr McMullin‚Äôs biography Pompey Elliott won awards for biography and literature\, and Will Dyson: Australia‚Äôs Radical Genius was shortlisted for the National Biography Award.He wrote the ALP centenary history The Light on the Hill: The Australian Labor Party 1891-1991\, and also So Monstrous a Travesty: Chris Watson and the World‚Äôs First National Labour Government. His latest book\, Farewell\, Dear People: Biographies of Australia‚Äôs Lost Generation\, is a multi-biography about Australians of exceptional promise who died in the Great War.

SUMMARY:The Other ANZACS
DESCRIPTION:By the end of The Great War\, forty five Australian and New Zealand nurses had died on overseas service and over two hundred had been decorated.\n \nThese were women who left for war on an adventure\, but were soon confronted with remarkable challenges for which their civilian lives could never have prepared them.

SUMMARY:An Australian foreign policy? Australia in War and Peace\, 1914-19
DESCRIPTION:The question of whether an Australian foreign policy existed during the First World War arises because there was no Department of Foreign Affairs at that time.\nThrough ‚ÄòAustralia in War and Peace\, 1914-19‚Äô\, a major collaborative research project between the Menzies Centre for Australian Studies (MCAS) at King‚Äôs College London and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) in Canberra\, we illustrate that there was indeed an Australian foreign policy at the time\, despite the lack of recognisable instruments and institutions. Australian foreign policy operated instead in an imperial context. The ultimate goal of our project is to produce a volume of Documents on Australian Foreign Policy on War and Peace\, 1914-19. The publication will follow the model of the previous volume produced by the same partners\, Australia and the United Kingdom\, 1960-1975\, which consisted of painstakingly selected\, historically significant Australian and British documents illuminating the Anglo-Australian relationship. In this talk we will outline the main features of the new research project\, explore its major themes and share some of the fruits of our research so far. \nTuesday 4 December\, 5.30pm arrival for a 6pm start. Light refreshments served.\nLocation: Visitor Centre\, Shrine of Remembrance.\nCost: Gold coin donation. \nBookings go to: http://www.shrine.org.au/Visit-the-Shrine/Talks-and-Events/An-Australian-foreign-policy—Australia-in-War-an

SUMMARY:Life on the battlefields‚Ä¶ more than 90 years on
DESCRIPTION:International speaker Charlotte Descamps will present a talk dealing with the ‚Äúsilent witnesses‚Äù to the Great War at Varlet Farm\, Poelkapelle\, Belgium. The Farm is situated in what was the centre of the battlefields of Third Ypres. \nWhere: Oakleigh Bowling Club\, corner of Drummond and Logie Streets\, Oakleigh. \nWhen: Sunday 3 June\, 2012 at 2pm. \nRefreshments available at the bar. \nFor bookings \nEmail gobbi.helen@gmail.com or \nPhone 0403 195 607 by 29 May\, 2012. \nSponsored by the Victorian branch of the Military Historical Society of Australia. \nGold coin donations to the Society will be welcomed. \n \nCharlotte Descamps \nSynopsis ‚ÄúLife on the Battlefields 94 years later‚Äù \nLocating Varlet Farm in the Salient \nVarlet Farm is situated¬† in the centre of the battlefields of Third Ypres\, ¬†part of the Salient which came to shape at the end of 1914. It was end 1914/beginning 1915 that the war changed face : from having been a war on the move\, it changed to a war of stalemate. Eventually 5 major battles were to be fought in the Salient \nFinding silent witnesses of war: \nToday\, there are hardly any visible signs of the Great War\, other than the many cemeteries and memorials\, to explain to what extend the Salient was destroyed. Yet\, year after year\, evidence of that conflict is being found. \nEven now\, human remains are still being unearthed. Modern technology is being applied in an attempt to identify those remains. A set procedure results in the fact that those soldiers are being put to the their final resting place with military honour. DNA research has let to several positive identifications over the last years \n  \nIron harvest \nOrdnance is part of daily life for those working in the soil : farmers\, contractors\, constructors\, everyone is aware of the fact that they will come across life ammunition. An average of over 200 tons of ammunition is still being collected every year. A heritage with which has to be dealt with in the appropriate way. High explosive shells\, shrapnel shells\, trench mortars\, hand- and rifle grenades\, toxic ammunition : it is all part of the iron harvest in the Salient \nDealing with the legacy \nThe Belgian bomb disposal squad has a high reputation. Today they are being send out throughout the world to clean up more recent battlefields. A lot of their experience goes back to the battlefields of the Great War : they have specialised knowledge how to dismantle all different types of shells. The toxic ones being the most dangerous ones around here. \nHuman suffering almost a century later \nYear after year\, the war still causes victims on the battlefields : private collectors messing around with shells\, children picking up a hand grenade\, farmers being confronted with an explosion while working the fields. Rules are being set to reduce the risks to a minimum. \nA story that continues \nWorking in the soil reveals more of the history of this area : helmets\, rifles\, rum jars\, badges\, buckles\, silent pickets etc\,¬† which are still being found are revealing more information. Occasionally ammunition supplies\, ammunition dumps or a tunnel are being discovered as well. Research in archives gives information on dugouts which are still down deep Flanders Fields today. \nCV \n– Born 19/09/1958 in Poperinge\, Belgium\n– started up B&B Varlet Farm\, specialised for guests having an interest in the Great War\, in 1998. One of the first B&B’s in the area long before there was a vivid interest in the history of the Great War. Varlet Farm has been listed in the top 10 of European B&B ‘s in the trip advisor 2011 ranking\n– became a qualified battlefield guide in 2004\n– one of the founding members of the Passchendaele Society 1917\, a charity organisation that organises commemoration events in the Salient\n– thriving force behind the commemorations events to mark the 90th anniversary of the Battle of Passchendaele\n– worked a battlefield guide for the NZ embassy on Anzac Day in from 2004 till 2009\n– lectured to groups from all over the world\, coming to Varlet Farm : these groups vary from students\, army cadets\, army officers\, bomb disposal squads to adults with a strong interest in the history of the Great War.\n– established contact between the Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917 and the 48th Highlander Regimental Museum in Toronto\n– lectured at the WFA seminar in Victoria\, Vancouver Island\, in March 2011\n– carried out research work for the Passchendaele Memorial Museum 1917 at the National Archives in Kew\n– represented the community of Zonnebeke at the inauguration of a new WWI memorial in Essex on November 4th\, 2011.

SUMMARY:Mud and Blood - WWI play by Meg McNena directed by Alice Bishop - Special Performance
DESCRIPTION:Mud and Blood\, Meg McNena’s compelling 80-minute\, six-actor play\, is about distinguished Australian general\, Harold ‘Pompey’ Elliott\, who led the Essendon Rifles and took most of them to WWI. \n \nThe tenacity of Australian men and women is shown in battle and at home. Timing in 2018 with Anzac and Armistice centenaries adds impact. Set 1914-1921\, it shows how Pompey Elliott and a soldier’s mother deal with his vow to look after ‘his boys’ in war as if they were his own. This vow\, driving the play’s drama\, was made at a farewell to troops a century ago at Essendon Town Hall\, now the Clocktower Centre\, where Mud and Blood will be centre-stage on Fri 31 August. Women’s efforts and struggles are also pivotal . Please share in your networks and newsletter this opportunity to see a story about local heroes by a Moonee Ponds writer. \nA brilliant cast and skilled production team is powerfully directed by Alice Bishop\, who has been nominated for a Green Room Award for best director. Writer and producer\, Meg McNena\, has an Amnesty International Award and others for writing; this is her sixth play staged. Darren Mort\, a lawyer like Pompey\,plays his complex character masterfully. Humour and songs intone the era. \nMud and Blood‚Äôs Melbourne premiere is at the Clocktower Centre\, Moonee Ponds at 12 noon on Friday 31 August with a Q&A and talk by Ross McMullin\, awarded historian\, biographer and author of two books on Pompey Elliott (included in the matinee price) and opening night is 8pm 31 August. \nElliott trained youth in the Essendon Rifles militia; three units of his 7th Battalion came from the Northern suburbs and one from the Western suburbs; they trained at Broadmeadows and went with him to Gallipoli\, Lone Pine\, Fromelles and trenches of The Somme\, where Elliott turned the outcome of WWI in the Allies favour. Pompey inspires as husband\, father\, brother\, friend\, leader\, veteran and senator – the soldier before and after war; the stalwart wife keeps the family going; the cost for Pompey in making this heartfelt but impossible promise and returning to unveil honour boards and memorials. \nWe want to share this significant history of world-changing times for the newly declared nation of Australia and to increase awareness of post-traumatic stress disorder. \nHere is the vox pop from our successful preview in Charlton\, where Pompey was born. \nClick here for more information

SUMMARY:The Tokyo Tribunal: 70th Anniversary of the Judgment on Japan‚Äôs War Leaders
DESCRIPTION:At the post-war Tokyo Tribunal\, the Allied powers charged Japanese leaders with waging aggressive war and committing war crimes against prisoners-ofwar and civilians. This trial\, presided over by the Australian judge\, William Webb was criticised at the time (and still to this day) for its retrospective charges and procedural shortcomings. After its conclusion with the handing down of the majority judgment in November 1948\, the Allies deemed the trial to have been a failure and closed the door against further prosecutions for international crimes.\nYet the themes raised in the course of the trial continue to resonate 70 years later. The trial did not succeed in settling accounts: the issue of Japan‚Äôs wartime actions remains highly topical in Asia\, with still active claims for redress for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Even so\, the legal innovations advanced at the Tribunal to deal with these actions\, such as the then-novel idea of civilian command responsibility and the much-maligned charge of crimes against peace\, have reappeared in new guises at the International Criminal Court. \nAt this event\, three leading experts on international criminal justice in Asia aim to cast new light on the proceedings by re-examining the purposes\, conduct and legacies of the Tokyo Tribunal. \nProfessor Neil Boister is head of the School of Law at the University of Canterbury\, Christchurch\, and the author\, with Robert Cryer\, of The Tokyo International Military Tribunal: A Reappraisal (2008) and the edited volume\, Documents on the Tokyo International Military Tribunal (2008). His research lies at the intersection of criminal law and international law and focuses on transnational crime. \nProfessor Robert Cribb is professor of Asian history at the Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs\, Australian National University\, and the author of Japanese War Criminals: The Politics of Justice after the Second World War (2017) (with Sandra Wilson\, Beatrice Trefalt and Dean Aszkielowicz). His research focuses on national identity\, mass violence\, environmental politics and historical geography. \nDr Kirsten Sellars is visiting fellow at the Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs\, Australian National University\, and the author of ‚ÄòCrimes against Peace‚Äô and International Law (2015)\, and the edited volume\, Trials for International Crimes in Asia (2015). Her research focuses on international criminal law\, the law governing uses of force\, and the law \n  \nClick here for further details..

SUMMARY:1968 From the Vietnam War to Vietnamese Immigration: Melbourne‚Äôs Long ‚ÄúSixties‚Äù
DESCRIPTION:The significance and meanings of notable dates\, eras and events are both highly historically-contested and geographically-specific. They are also often intensely personal. While the focus of most of the papers in this symposium is political – the ‚Äòevents‚Äô of 1968 and the legacies of the protest movements of the 1960s in Australia and elsewhere – my introductory paper takes a more social and cultural approach to exploring the various meanings and legacies of ‚Äòthe Sixties‚Äô.\nIt does so by documenting a range of issues and events from the ‚Äòlong-1960s‚Äô in Melbourne and speculates on their on-going effects on the city and Australian society more generally in the decades since. \nSeamus O‚ÄôHanlon teaches contemporary and urban history at Monash University. His latest book is City Life: the new urban Australia\, which has just been published by NewSouth.
