Australian poetry, prose and stories stand alone because their beginning can be traced back to Colonization in 1788. This facet of the arts began as entertainment around campfires at a time when hardships and adventures were romanticised. They characteristically followed themes of heroic achievement and individual experiences. Back then, the ethnic groups were English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh. Today, Australian literature keeps its original theme with added egalitarianism, blending the original transportation cultures with those of the Indigenous peoples, those born in Australia, the British Isles, Egypt, Greece, Lebanon, Poland, Russia, Turkey and other nationalities. Thus, literature and its sister, the art scene, is a powerful mirror reflecting Australia's unique social and political contexts. I invite you to enjoy my contributions! Magda
