This project analyses and evaluates Australian popular or genre fiction from the early to the late colonial period: from around the 1840s to the beginning of World War Two. It will chart a comprehensive history of colonial Australian genre fiction for the first time, producing two critical monographs and an online bibliography and digital archive which will function as major reading, research and teaching resources. Understanding colonial popular fiction as a field of writing that expressed colonial sensibilities and performed colonial predicaments, this project will also demonstrate the formative role it played in the task of settlement and nation building.

这个项目分析和评估了从殖民时期早期到后期的澳大利亚流行或体裁小说：从19世纪40年代左右到第二次世界大战开始。它将首次绘制澳大利亚殖民类型小说的全面历史图表，制作两本批判性专著和一个在线书目和数字档案馆，作为主要的阅读、研究和教学资源。将殖民通俗小说理解为表达殖民情感和表现殖民困境的写作领域，这个项目也将展示它在殖民和国家建设任务中所发挥的形成作用。
