• W3150659819 abstract "Australia: William Blandowski's illustrated encyclopaedia of Aboriginal Australia Harry Allen (ed.), with Mark Dugay-Grist, Brook Andrew, Luise Hercus and Thomas A Darragh 2010 Aboriginal Studies Press, Canberra, 290x240mm, 176pp, full colour, ISBN 978 0855757137 (pbk) Despite ... unifying factors, the tribes remained distinct and had their own languages. However, there is one feature they [the peoples of Sunraysia] all shared and which they shared with other languages further up the Murray such as the Wemba-Wemba and the Wati-Wati: the reduplicated names of the tribes/languages mean 'no-no' (p.170). The above translation from the no-no or Nerri-Nerri language of the romanticised 'never-never land' is at the heart of Wilhelm von Blandowski's encyclopaedia of 1860. Blandowski's native German and the interpretations of the Nerri-Nerri, such as linguist Luise Hercus' translation of the names of the tribes/languages, are translated into English and published for the first time. It is in the context of a handful of re-evaluations of Blandowski's archives as records of this colonial explorer's Indigenous informants that this book from Aboriginal Studies Press (ASP) makes a major contribution. From a publisher that focuses on Indigenous voices, this illustrated encyclopaedia of Australia can be seen as source material to understand many aspects of Aboriginal life, such as land management and ceremony. The Director of ASP, Rhonda Black, says she did not want the new edition to look like a quaint picture book but, instead, wanted to surround it with Indigenous voices. Until ASP reprinted Blandowski's Australia in 2010 there were only two copies of the original available in libraries (one in the Haddon Library in Cambridge and the other in the Stabi in Berlin) and an online version of all 142 images available through the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology at Cambridge University. (1) Harry Allen's 2010 edited volume is not a facsimile of Blandowski's original (Australien in 142 Photographischen Abbildungen nach zehnjahrigen Erfahrungen, 1862) but, rather, a contemporary contextualisation and translation of that original. The book that it reproduces is in a different format altogether and for future historians this new version offers a preliminary look into the vast original sources that were compiled by Blandowski. Blandowski's encyclopaedia is a record of south-eastern Australian ecology and the ways in which it was used by Indigenous people. This type of information is irreplaceable. Mark Dugay-Grist, a member of the Aboriginal community that once assisted Blandowski, has written a dedication to him in the 2010 volume. He writes of the smoking ceremony (in which he participated) to welcome the symposium about Blandowski that was held on the banks of the Murray River in 2007 (and see Allen and Weldon 2009). In the original encyclopaedia, Blandowski acknowledged Dugay-Grist's ancestors and thanked them for their contribution to his collecting endeavours as the first employee of Museum Victoria. Rich information has been translated from Nerri-Nerri to German to English in this newly released version of the encyclopaedia. At its core, the book reprints 142 images from Blandowski's original; a layered assemblage of visual information about south-eastern Indigenous practices, which he collected during the course of his ten years of field research. The section on 'Aboriginal people and languages of the Murray in the 1850s' by linguist Luise Hercus (pp.169-73) provides tantalising translations of the language lists made by Blandowski, work that has been cited in an earlier essay by the book's editor, Harry Allen (2001). It is exciting to have these linguistics-oriented interpretations of Blandowski's predominantly visual book. Brook Andrew's 'Remember how we see: The Island' (pp.165-8) is a timely contribution because, as an artist, he rewrites history visually. …" @default.
