This project aims to consider how colonial Australian literary writing shaped Australia's environmental consciousness. It will explore how colonial Australian literature expressed ecological issues: questions of land clearance, species classification, habitat, extinction, climate change and the effect of environmental disasters. By examining colonial Australian literary writing, natural historians’ works and debates about the management of resources, this project expects to reveal our literary past and add historical depth to current environmental concerns in Australia.

这个项目旨在思考殖民时期的澳大利亚文学创作如何塑造了澳大利亚的环境意识。它将探索澳大利亚殖民文学如何表达生态问题：土地清理、物种分类、栖息地、灭绝、气候变化和环境灾难的影响等问题。通过考察殖民时期的澳大利亚文学作品、自然历史学家的作品和关于资源管理的辩论，该项目希望揭示我们的文学历史，并为当前澳大利亚的环境问题增添历史深度。
