Revisionist historicism theory and practice: challenging national metanarratives
Herbert, Jennifer Anne 2014, Revisionist historicism theory and practice: challenging national metanarratives, Doctor of Philosophy thesis, School of Communication and Creative Arts, Deakin University.
This thesis demonstrates the interdependence of theory and practice in re-envisioning Australia’s past: the postmodern methodologies explored in the exegesis inform my fictional reassessment of history. The thesis argues for revisionist historical fiction’s legitimacy in resurrecting lost voices. It looks beyond the colonial archives to reconfigure Australia’s history in more inclusive ways.
