Excerpt: ...not come near at first, but gradually they came round us, and as usual began to talk at the top of their voices. Baula soon after arrived on the scene and began to declaim. These people were at enmity with the surrounding villages, and both this and Baula's village were barricaded with bamboo, and all the spears were kept in readiness. Here all the women and children leave the village at night on account of the warlike attitude of the neighbouring tribes. We slept in the Strangers' House, a very good one. About 7.30 the Governor arrived. The view from S. Joseph's River, which runs just under the village of Yule, is lovely. " Early on Saturday morning six of the party started off to a bamboo clump to make a raft, while most of the others went out shooting or collecting. About mid-day the Governor started for the bamboo clump, where the rest of us were to overtake him on Sunday. On Saturday afternoon I did some washing in the river, as most of my things were dirty. Food being scarce we had but little to eat. " 1st June.--Early on Sunday morning, after I had said prayers, we started for the raft, about eight miles on the way to Aipiana, which we reached about ten, and found all hard at work completing the raft. After a meal of biscuits and tea, we made a start on the raft down the river for Aipiana, which we reached about four. After us came some twenty Papuans on rafts of their own, and as they chanted some of their native songs it was very pleasing. I cannot but express my regret that such work has to be done on a Sunday, as it quite undoes the good missionaries are trying to do, though on this particular Sunday some excuse can be made for it, on the ground of short provisions. The raft was made of six or seven layers of bamboo, fifty or...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographing Papua is a study of photography in the public domain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It argues that southeastern New Guinea, known as British New Guinea and then as Papua when it became an Australian colony, was created as a geographical place through visual representation in illustrated magazines and newspapers, lavishly illustrated travelogues and mission hagiography, serial encyclopedia, lantern slides and postcards. Readers :knew" Papua because many thousands of black and white photographs of Papuans, villages and material culture rapidly swamped the reading public once the process of halftone, newsprint reproduction became possible. In an innovative and breakthrough fashion Photographing Papua switches attention from a few well known prints in museums and archives, in some cases repeatedly reproduced, but mostly rarely seen outside of scientific and scholarly circles. It deals instead with thousands of photographs, often used in ways not intended when the photograph was taken, but which editors and publishers (and subsequent photographers) gradually made conform to an iconographic imperative, a sort of abbreviated visual gallery of "natives" and a quick-access pathway to the actual and imagined lives of Papuans in the "last Unknown" as New Guinea was titled. It is a study of representation, colonialism, cross-cultural encounters and the early world of illustrated media and photo-journalism.
