1 Imagining Early Melbourne Kathryn Ferguson , 2004 single work essay criticism
— Appears in: Postcolonial Text , vol. 1 no. 1 2004;
This article 'examine(s) three elements that were posited by Melbourne's early surveyors and incompatible with the development of a city invested in post-Enlightenment commitments to the rational and orderly division of space: the indigenous population, the extant landscape and the poor.' Ferguson draws on a range of texts, from the writings of colonial surveyor Thomas Mitchell to autobiographies and memoirs of early residents of Melbourne to demonstrate 'the irrationality - the almost mythical foundations - of the city' (par. 2).
