Memory, place and Aboriginal-settler history : understanding Australians' consciousness of the colonial past / Skye Krichauff.

• Historical Inheritance : Tracing the Past -- Dwelling in Place : Absorbing the Past -- The Social Community : Networks of Memory -- The Cultural Circuit : Making Sense of Lived History -- "Memory" to "History" : From Verbal Transmission to Text -- Settler Belonging, Victimhood and Trauma -- Unsettling the Disconnect -- Appendix 1: Interviewees -- Appendix 2: Towns/settlements whose public spaces were surveyed -- Appendix 3: List of mid-northern written histories surveyed.

• "Taking the absence of Aboriginal people in rural South Australian settler descendants' historical consciousness as a starting point, Memory, Place and Aboriginal-Settler History combines the methodologies and theories of historical enquiry, anthropology and memory studies to investigate how and why the colonial past is known, represented and understood by current generations. The author draws on archival research, interviews, oral histories, fieldwork, site visits and personal experience to closely examine the diverse but interconnected processes through which the past is understood and narrated. Concluding that the colonial era is primarily and most powerfully known through lived experience--through dwelling in place, material objects, family stories and everyday social interaction--this deep history demonstrates how, by unsettling taken-for-granted assumptions, a process of settler-Aboriginal reconciliation can be facilitated"--Provided by publisher.
