This project aims to produce the first comprehensive analysis of native bird species in the cultural, scientific, and economic life of colonial Australia. It expects to generate new knowledge about Australia’s environmental imagination, identity and practices locally, nationally and globally. Anticipated outcomes include new insights into the circulation, cultural meanings and uses of species and species knowledge and the tensions between enchantment and pragmatism in creative, affective and material responses to birdlife. This should significantly benefit understandings of Australia’s past and present by mapping its historical relationships to bird species and producing new insights into the pressing ecological concerns of today.

该项目旨在对澳大利亚殖民地的文化、科学和经济生活中的本土鸟类进行首次全面分析。它期望产生新的知识，澳大利亚的环境想象力，身份和做法，地方，国家和全球。预期成果包括对物种和物种知识的流通、文化意义和用途的新见解，以及对鸟类的创造性、情感和物质反应中的魅力和实用主义之间的紧张关系。这将大大有利于了解澳大利亚的过去和现在，通过映射其历史关系的鸟类物种和生产新的见解到今天紧迫的生态问题。
