DOWNLOAD EBOOKHere is a thoroughly engaging history of one line of human science research and its consequences for the hapless, and often helpless, subject of study: the indigenous peoples of Tasmania. Research questions arising from skeletal remains were posed and pursued on the assumption that these vanishing forebears bore no relation to, nor had any intrinsic meaning for, aboriginal Tasmanians of today. The author finds these premises incorrect, exposing both the biases of research done for political ends, and documenting their galvanizing effect on high-profile native issues.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 1908 English gentleman, Ernest Westlake, packed a tent, a bicycle and forty tins of food and sailed to Tasmania. On mountains, beaches and in sheep paddocks he collected over 13,000 Aboriginal stone tools. Westlake believed he had found the remnants of an extinct race whose culture was akin to the most ancient Stone Age Europeans. But in the remotest corners of the island Westlake encountered living Indigenous communities. Into the Heart of Tasmania tells a story of discovery and realisation. One man's ambition to rewrite the history of human culture inspires an exploration of the controversy stirred by Tasmanian Aboriginal history. It brings to life how Australian and British national identities have been fashioned by shame and triumph over the supposed destruction of an entire race. To reveal the beating heart of Aboriginal Tasmania is to be confronted with a history that has never ended.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKZaradi uspešnega lobiranja aboriginskih skupin iz Tasmanije po repatriaciji predniških ostankov se sodobne svetovne muzejske in znanstvene zbirke radikalno spreminjajo. V zadnjih desetih letih se je vrsta muzejev v Veliki Britaniji, Avstraliji, ZDA in drugje odrekla zbirkam predniškega telesnega materiala oziroma prepovedala njihovo razstavljanje v javnosti.
