10.01.2022 Fortnight Seminar: 15 May 2013, 12:30 pm-1:30 pm Rosalind Nicole McFarlane, PhD candidate "Swimming at High Tide: Water in Contemporary Asian Australian Poetry"... Date/Time: Date(s) - 15/05/2013, 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm Location: Monash Asia Institute, Seminar Room, H5.95 Within contemporary literary criticism work specifically dealing with Asian Australian poetry is worryingly sparse. As an intervention, the aim here will be explore such an area from the lens of diasporic theory and critical writings on place, with a specific focus on how water is represented. A focus on diasporic place as expressed through water allows such poetry to be placed within both an Australian and a transnational context, thus recognising boundaries even as these divisions are being subverted. Taking more of an exploratory than a deeply critical approach, this presentation will present contemporary Asian Australian poetry and various representations of water in order to draw attention to both differences and similarities, commonalities and possibilities. About the Presenter: Rosalind McFarlane is currently a doctoral candidate with Monash University, having completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Western Australia. She has a deep interest in culture and plants, leading to her current study of Asian-Australian literature and the Australian landscape. She has been a part of several publications, most notably Verge, Pelican Student Newspaper and the Perth-based dotdotdash.
