Towards Seeing Minor Poets Steadily and Whole, Elizabeth Perkins , single work

The Short Stories of Marcus Clarke, Michael Wilding , single work criticism (p. 72-97)
A.G. Stephens, The Bulletin, and the 1890s, Leon Cantrell , single work
Cantrell explores the myths that have been constructed around the Bulletin and A. G. Stephens' role in the development of Australian literature. Cantrell argues that the Bulletin's status as a nationalist publication is destabilized by an unacknowledged "bourgeois vision" and a tendency towards xenophobia that produced a "selfcontained world". But, in the "Red Page", A. G. Stephens' subdued assessment of Australian literature in relation to European literature produced a voice far removed from the "xenophobic nationalism" promulgated by the Bulletin.
(p. 98-113)

"Cyrus Brown of Sydney Town" : Christopher Brennan and Dowell O'Reilly, Harry Payne Heseltine , single work (p. 136-152)
"Such is Life" and the Observant Reader, John Barnes , single work criticism
Barnes examines the role of the reader in Such is Life, arguing that Furphy intended the reader would assume part of the responsibility normally carried by the narrator. By discovering the inadequacies of the narrator as interpreter, the reader experiences directly the problem of making sense of what happens in life.
(p. 153-169)
Henry Lawson's Fictional World, Brian Matthews , single work criticism
Matthews finds a unity in the arrangement of stories in While the Billy Boils. The chronological nature of the stories, the use of rumour and the consistent use of time and distance are all elements that support the structure of the collection. Matthews concludes that the world of While the Billy Boils is "various and crowded", but it is a world "in which the whole undeniably loose undertaking can be regarded as hanging together".
