The Literature of Australian Natural History

This one day seminar about writers and writing on the animals and plants of Australia will be held in Canberra on Friday, 8 December, 1995.

The topics discussed will include both the writing itself - scientific, literary, popular - and the writers, from Joseph Banks to Densey Clyne.

The seminar will provide a forum for writers and scientists, as well as students and amateur naturalists, to contribute and listen to modern debate on literary and historical aspects of Australian natural history writing, and just as importantly to share knowledge and interests with others. See Dates section for contact details.
