{"title":"Just a matter of time: reviewing temporality in Australian historiography","authors":"Anna Clark","doi":"10.1080/13642529.2023.2267331","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13642529.2023.2267331","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTTime is a foundational concept in historical studies. The past is located ‘in time’, of course, such that time guides and bounds ‘what happened’ to a ‘when’. There have also been increasing theorisations that understand ‘time’ itself as temporally and culturally bound. As well as historicising, then, time itself must be historicised. Using Australian historiography as a case study, this paper explores the changing concept of ‘time’ over time. It sets out a provisional timeline of Australian history’s understanding and deployment of historical time, contributing a much-needed historicisation of time to a growing field of historical theory. In charting a history of time in Australian historiography, it demonstrates the historicity of ‘time’. This paper shows how the concept of time not only reflects, but in turn shapes and defines, historical practice and research.KEYWORDS: Australian historyhistoriographyhistoricityhistorical time Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

{"title":"Transients, punks and hobos: rethinking the history of train hopping through experimental film","authors":"Kornelia Boczkowska","doi":"10.1080/13642529.2023.2269822","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13642529.2023.2269822","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTWhile in social history and mobilities research, the study of railway mobility is becoming increasingly popular, offering new insights into (trans)national railway cultures, there is less interest in illicit mobility, unconventional modes of travel and non-regulated, irregular patterns of movement, such as train hopping, and the way they function in experimental film. To fill this gap, I build on the recent mobilities literature to discuss two stylistically distinct experimental films, Reading Canada Backwards (Steve Topping, 1995) and Portland (Greta Snider, 1996), which offer a social commentary on train hopping, typically associated with the history and material conditions of North American railway travels. Challenging the larger freighthopping mobilities discourse, both films confront the historical legacy of the hobo, as reimagined by occasional transients and punk drifters, as a product of capitalist enterprise, railroad transportation services and failed bourgeois masculinity. While in narrative and documentary films, hobo culture often emerges as an alternative, intrepid lifestyle and a personal philosophy based on economic or environmental concerns, Reading Canada Backwards and Portland take a more critical and ironic take on riding the rails, highlighting its casual spontaneity, playful creativity and affective potential, which questions the drifter as an active agent of marginal mobility practices.KEYWORDS: Train hoppingexperimental filmhobosocial historyillicit mobilityrailway mobility Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. Reading Canada Backwards is available on Steve Topping’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4LX52AGy5g. Steve Topping is a Canadian artist and filmmaker who lives in Montreal. Mostly associated with the 1960s and 1970s avant-garde cinema, Topping’s multidisciplinary practice has resulted in the creation of several Super 8 films, which use found materials to explore the physical representation of urban and rural landscapes, time, space and the specificity of the site of the film medium.2. Portland is available on Greta Snider’s Vimeo website: https://vimeo.com/79935794. Greta Snider is a San Francisco-based filmmaker. Since the late 1980s, Snider has made several 16 mm essay films, in which she combines the original and archival footage or uses stereoscopic, 3D, AR and hand-processed images. Her work ranges from autoethnographies and found footage films to 3D video collages, which focus on non-fiction and documentary forms of storytelling, human rights, oppressive structures, women’s issues, family history, document and the body.Additional informationFundingThis work was funded by the National Science Centre, Poland, under the project Lost highways, forgotten travels: The road movie in the post-war American avant-garde and experimental film through the lens of women and men filmmakers (grant no.

Our aim is to identify some core reasons why attempts by historians to work with people beyond the campus contain risk and might fail. To do this, we focus on the types of relationships that are formed as a result of collaboration and emphasise the role of dialogue: of speaking and, more importantly, of listening. In writing this article, we therefore set out to explore the implications of sound and space for socially engaged public history. Throughout the article, we develop the idea of ‘fraught spaces’ as a way of recognising the feelings, especially of anxiety and insecurity, that all participants might experience as they enter what are sometimes complex relationships. We also suggest some practical steps to support collaborative research.","PeriodicalId":46004,"journal":{"name":"Rethinking History","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135480901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the sentiment bias of a memory war between two major Polish political parties, the currently ruling conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party and Civic Platform (PO), the main opposition party, concerning Polish-Jewish relations, and especially the Holocaust. Totally, 23699 PO Tweets and 29,441 PiS Tweets from 2015 to 2019 were collected, out of which, 241 concerning memory war were sampled with a lexicon-based approach. Sentiment was analysed using tweet-based consensual coding with an ordinal five-point scale and automated word-based coding with a three-point scale. PiS tweets had more positive sentiment regarding the memory of the Holocaust and Jewish legacy in Poland. The final hermeneutical analysis showed that the rulling party narratives were aimed appropriation of collective memory and “Polonizing” the Holocaust, and that the positive sentiment was a function of ‘positive anti-Semitism’.KEYWORDS: TwitterHolocaustantisemitismmemory warhistorical narrativessentiment bias AcknowledgementsThe research was funded by the Polish National Science Centre (NCN) under grant title “Historical narratives in Web 2.0 as a functional element of national identities in Central and Eastern Europe” (2020/39/B/HS3/01237).

In 1983, General Wojciech Jaruzelski, who headed the Polish People’s Republic, going along with the Catholic Church, authorized the construction of a Carmelite convent at Auschwitz. Jewish circles protested against the appropriation of the territory. Despite the multilateral agreements reached on the matter and the pressure of international public opinion, the Carmelites did not move to a new off-site location until 1993. However, the so-called “Auschwitz cross” remained on the gravel site at the monastery, sparking a new round of conflict over the presence and hegemony of Catholic symbolism at the death camp. In late 1998 and early 1999, more than 300 crosses were set up on the grounds next to the camp at the call of the national-Catholic activist Kazimierz Switon. They were eventually removed amid an international scandal.2. See: https://www.president.pl/president-komorowski/news/president-on-barack-obamas-letter,385943.
