Establishing Aboriginal health research priorities in Victoria

The Victorian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (VACCHO) conducted a research project to find out the impact of social determinants such as education, employment, income, racism and housing on the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal peoples. Forums and workshops were conducted to establish future research outcomes and priorities. The project will help in developing localised and community-oriented solutions to Aboriginal health issues.

Selected Works from Character Pieces in the 19th - Early 20th Centuries

During the Romantic Era, the character piece flourished and became one of the most important genres. Even though character pieces existed as early as the eighteenth century, it was not until the nineteenth century that Romantic Era literary figures discovered that music was as powerful as any other artistic medium in expressing unspeakable emotions. The character piece allowed composers to express a definite mood, a programmatic idea, or a pictorial association. Character pieces often have titles that suggest briehess or casualness, such as a Beethoven Bagatelle, a Schubert Impromptu or Moment musicaux. Others have expressive programmatic titles, such as Schumann's Kreisleriana and Liszt's Apres une lecture de Dante. Ths dissertation was based on selected works from the nineteenth century and early-twentieth century in order to demonstrate the great variety of musical thought and stylistic development. I have examined composers from different countries and of different nationalities to establish what and how they contributed to the remarkable diversity in this genre. The selected works allowed for very personal programs. These concerts, in addition to being good combinations of pieces, are representative of the genre. The first program consisted of Chopin's Preludes, Op. 28; three pieces from Debussy7s Images Books I and 11; and Liszt7s Apres une lecture de Dante. The second program included seven of Beethoven's Bagatelles, Op. 33; Schumann's Kinderscenen, Op. 15; Poulenc's Mouvements perpetuels and Intermezzo in A-jlat Major; Faure7s Nocturne in B Major, Op. 33, No. 2 and Impromptu No. 2 in F Minor; three of Mompou's Canciones y Danzas; four of Villa-Lobos Prole do bebe Suite No. 1; and Albkniz's Navarra. The third and final program comprised four selections from Rachrnaninoff s Moment musicaux, Op. 16; five pieces from Grieg's Lyric Pieces; and Arensky7s Suite No. 1 for Two Pianos and Suite No. 2 for Two Pianos. I wanted to bring out nuances specific to the individual composers and show how their character pieces helped in shaping the Romantic Era. Even in the twenty-first century, an era of highly specialized musical tastes, the popularity and accessibility of character pieces stand out.

Eduarda Mansilla y Victoria Ocampo : escritoras y personajes de novela

A partir de la investigación crítica sobre la vida y las obras de estas dos representativas escritoras argentinas, surgen también dos novelas de María Rosa Lojo: “Una mujer de fin de siglo" (1999, 3ª ed. 2007) y “Las libres del Sur" (2004), sobre Eduarda Mansilla y Victoria Ocampo, respectivamente. Se expone aquí sobre: 1) representaciones de Ocampo y Mansilla en el imaginario social; 2) sus afinidades y diferencias, como personajes humanos y como literatas, en la toma de posición frente al género y frente a la situación geopolítica y cultural del país periférico en el que nacieron; 3) por qué estas obras son novelas y se despegan de un género historiográfico fronterizo: la biografía; 4) por qué estas novelas se desvían también de ciertas expectativas creadas acerca de la reciente novela histórica, la proyección simbólica de estos dos personajes y la creación femenina como una cuestión social problemática, aún hoy; 5) la construcción novelesca: la búsqueda de documentos y su uso, los huecos del material biográfico, la representación de la voz y la escritura — entre la estilización paródica, el collage y la innovación poética–, personajes de ficción y “parejas protagónicas", tensiones entre “escritoras" y “secretarias" y 6) conclusiones: hacia una metaliteratura y una (re)construcción teórica del género literario y el género sexual, una diferencia que no está en conflicto con la universalidad.
