AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The focus of this essay is 'on excavating short fiction built around representation of frontier conflict' (33). The short fictions of colonial frontier violence 'seem an appropriate means for reading otherwise unwritten events, and folding them into a Gothicised account of the colonial Australian scene' (51).
