Praise for Griffith REVIEW

‘This is a small literary magazine that amazingly – it is now in its eighth year – keeps getting better.’ Sydney Morning Herald

‘An always vibrant mix of creative writing, essays, photography and ideas, Griffith REVIEW has gone from strength to strength.’ Adelaide Review

‘Griffith REVIEW represents “the long game” in journalism, providing quality analysis in an age of diminishing journalistic integrity.’ Walkley Magazine

‘Griffith REVIEW is a wonderful journal. It’s pretty much setting the agenda in Australia and fighting way above its weight…You’re mad if you don’t subscribe.’ Phillip Adams

‘Once again, Griffith REVIEW has produced a stunning volume of excellent work. The pieces are diverse, the stories unique and real. But one thing remains constant – superb writing.’ Weekend Herald (NZ)

‘Griffith REVIEW brings together thought-provoking and articulate essays, outstanding memoir and creative work concerned with finding ways to address the complexity and urgency of twenty-first century problems.’ West Australian

‘Griffith REVIEW is the best literary journal in the country. Editor Julianne Schultz attracts writing of superior craftsmanship, intellectual and creative depth. If you care about writing, this is compulsory reading.’ The Age

SIR SAMUEL GRIFFITH was one of Australia’s great early achievers. Twice the premier of Queensland, that state’s chief justice and the author of its criminal code, he was best known for his pivotal role in drafting agreements that led to Federation, and as the new nation’s first chief justice. He was also an important reformer and legislator, a practical and cautious man of words.

Griffith died in 1920 and is now best remembered in his namesakes: an electorate, a society, a suburb and a university. Ninety-six years after he first proposed establishing a university in Brisbane, Griffith University, the city’s second, was created. His commitment to public debate and ideas, his delight in words and art, and his attachment to active citizenship are recognised by the publication that bears his name.

Like Sir Samuel Griffith, Griffith REVIEW is iconoclastic and non-partisan, with a sceptical eye and a pragmatically reforming heart and a commitment to public discussion. Personal, political and unpredictable, it is Australia’s best conversation.

Dianne D’Alpoim has worked as an artist, a teacher, in corporate public affairs, and as an activist in anti-nuclear arms campaigns and the women’s movement. Her interview of Simone de Beauvoir during the 1974 revolution in Portugal was her first publication, and her first televised video was of Sammy Davis, Jr. She is writing the biography of her father and three generations of family life in China from her residence in Brisbane.

Griffith REVIEW 35: SURVIVING

In an ever more populous, urbanised and media-saturated world, it can feel as if the rate and scale of disasters is straight out of a doomsday movie. Inured by daily reports and images of devastation, it’s easy to lapse into compassion fatigue and a pattern of short-term responses or quick technological ‘fixes’.

Surviving will explore stories of our ability to adapt, survive and thrive in response to challenge.

Available February 2012

Griffith REVIEW 36: What is Australia For?

It is time to revive the debate about national identity. The clichés of old have long exceeded their use-by date.

This is a trying time of global transition and uncertainty, for societies and for individuals. Yet it is also a time when Australia has remarkable advantages – advantages it must build on if the nation is to prosper.

Instead of seizing the moment, and forging an exciting new future, public discussion is mired in the past. Politics is no longer the art of the possible. Whingeing has replaced can-do.

What is Australia For? will sketch out visionary ideas for the future, uncover neglected stories from the past, and provide an exciting forum for new voices to make their case.
