Australian Anglocentrism raises important questions about the dynamics of living in a multilingual society. This project aims to mobilise Australia’s considerable and under-utilised non-English language resources in order to rethink our migrant and settler history. It asks what difference language makes in the ways people engage with, and ultimately think of themselves as ‘Australian’ or not. For the first time, a rich multilingual archive will be used to examine Australia’s history from non-English perspectives. Outcomes include a framework outlining the role of language diversity in shaping Australian identity which will equip scholars, policymakers and the public to confront the challenge of cultural pluralism today.

澳大利亚的盎格鲁中心主义对生活在多语言社会中的动态提出了重要的问题。该项目旨在动员澳大利亚大量且未得到充分利用的非英语语言资源，以重新思考我们的移民和定居者的历史。它问的是，语言对人们的交往方式有什么影响，最终他们认为自己是不是澳大利亚人。将首次使用丰富的多语种档案从非英语的角度审视澳大利亚的历史。成果包括概述语言多样性在塑造澳大利亚身份中的作用的框架，该框架将使学者、政策制定者和公众能够应对当今文化多元化的挑战。
