Produktinformationen "A Short History of Australia"

A Short History of Australia is a compact yet ambitious survey of the continent's transformation from Indigenous homelands and European speculation to British colonisation, pastoral expansion, self-government, federation, and participation in imperial affairs. Ernest Scott writes in a lucid, orderly prose characteristic of early twentieth-century narrative history, privileging political development, exploration, settlement, and constitutional change. Its style reflects the imperial and nation-building historiography of its age, while offering a clear framework for understanding how Australia imagined its historical identity. Ernest Scott (1867-1939), an English-born historian who settled in Australia, became Professor of History at the University of Melbourne and was among the formative figures in professional Australian historiography. His interests in exploration, empire, and national development-evident also in works on Matthew Flinders and French maritime activity-shaped this book's emphasis on discovery, administration, and the emergence of civic institutions. This volume is recommended for readers seeking an accessible foundational account of Australian history and for students interested in how earlier historians constructed the national past. Read critically, it remains valuable both as history and as a document of its historiographical moment.
