22nd October Professor Kate Fullagar will speak about her book,
Bennelong and Phillip: a History Unravelled.

The book provides the first joint biography of Bennelong and Governor Arthur Phillip, two pivotal figures in Australian history. Fullagar's account challenges many misconceptions, among them that Bennelong became alienated from his people and that Phillip was a paragon of Enlightenment benevolence. To present this history afresh, Bennelong & Phillip relates events in reverse, moving beyond the limitations of typical Western ways of writing about the past, which have long privileged the coloniser over the colonised.

Kate Fullagar is currently Professor of History at the Institute for Humanities and Social Sciences, in the Australian Catholic University, and co-editor of the journal History Australia. Her book The Warrior, The Voyager and the Artist won the Douglas Stewart Prize for Non-Fiction at the 2021 NSW Premier's Awards. This is a free event so please join us for a lively evening accompanied by a glass of wine and cheese.
