Blackfella Historians: An Historical Study of Aboriginal History-Making in South-eastern Australia

土著居民不仅要忍受殖民统治，还要理解它的意义。这项创新的研究考察了他们的历史部署，重点是在19世纪和20世纪的澳大利亚东南部。它将探讨历史在土著人向非土著人解释他们的困境并为他们自己理解所做的努力中的重要性。该项目将对历史在塑造土著居民和非土著居民之间关系中的作用提供重要的新见解，也将丰富我们对历史的政治和文化用途及其作为跨文化交流媒介的重要性的理解。

Aboriginal people had not only to endure colonisation, but to make sense of it. This innovative study examines their deployment of history, focusing on south-eastern Australia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It will explore the importance of history in the efforts made by Aborigines to explain their plight to non-Aborigines and to make sense of it for themselves. The project will offer major new insights into the role of history in shaping relations between Aborigines and non-Aborigines and will also enrich our understanding of history's political and cultural uses and its significance as a medium for cross-cultural communication.
