It is written within a framework of the ethnography of speaking, and specifically relates what people say (language form), to its effect on people (language function), examining aspects of context. This ethnographically based language study goes beyond formal details of grammatical structure, presents new data on the Aboriginal use of English, and explores some areas where the conventional grammatical analysis of Standard English does not adequately account for differences between Aboriginal and White Australian uses of English. It also provides evidence which shows that Aboriginal ways of speaking persist in a region where traditional Aboriginal languages are rarely used. The first chapter introduces the study, giving background to the research and motivating the central questions addressed in the thesis. The second chapter provides the theoretical orientation of the thesis, asks its central questions and, after reviewing the ethnography of speaking literature, provides a framework to answer them. The third chapter reviews literature on Australian Aboriginal languages from a sociolinguistic perspective. The fourth chapter provides background information about SEQAB society. The following three chapters treat the SEQAB use of English, each chapter focusing on a specific function of language: the fifth chapter focuses on seeking information, the sixth chapter on giving and seeking reasons for actions, and the seventh chapter on talking about future action. The final chapter concludes that while linguistic forms used by SEQAB speakers of English are mostly shared with White Australian speakers of English, there are crucial differences in meaning which can be understood only in terms of the SEQAB socio-cultural context, including customary intentions of speakers and interpretations of hearers. Considering the data and analysis presented in this thesis, I assert that SEQAB people today use English as an Aboriginal language. 2009-09-28T00:00:00Z Eades, Diana Entertainment in Brisbane - recollections http://espace.library.uq.edu.au/view/UQ:204841 2010-05-06T00:00:00Z Pixley, Norman S.

W. Forest and land management in north-east Queensland 1859-1960 http://espace.library.uq.edu.au/view/UQ:265386 Forest and land management in north-east Queensland is examined from Queensland separation in 1859 to the commencement of the first comprehensive forestry legislation in 1960. This is followed by a brief postscript of the period after 1960. The research is structured around the identification of those environmental and societal images which have influenced forest and land management policies and actions, and the resultant conversion of the rainforest landscape. Special emphasis is given to the development of forest policy for north Queensland. Rainforest management in north Queensland is considered in the context of land policy generally. Until 1960, agrarianism dominated Queensland images of rural development, resulting in closer settlement policies that ignored forest values. Attitudes towards rainforest were predominantly utilitarian and antagonistic, though there was a contrasting romantic image. While eventually, farming was successfully established, the effects of closer settlement policies on the northern landscape were also the transfer of timbered lands to private ownership, massive forest destruction, and clearing of poorly productive lands. The development of forest policy in north Queensland is discussed within the state and national context. As professional forestry became established in Queensland, in line with similar developments throughout Australia, the northern rainforest lands became the scene of bitter conflict between the forestry profession and land settlement interests. The early ‘inexhaustible’ image of the Queensland forests was progressively modified. By 1900, there was some realization that the vast forests could be quickly depleted. This was demonstrated by the rapid commercial extinction of red cedar. In south-east Queensland, management for sustained yield was eventually abandoned for the native softwoods. In recent times, maintenance of sustained yield has also become doubtful for the northern rainforest. Three phases are evident in concern for forest conservation in Queensland. Wasteful cutting provoked the first criticism. By the 1880s, the established industry looked for management that would guarantee future supplies. From the 1890s, moves for forest conservation came into conflict with continuing land alienation, resulting from the closer settlement imperative. Since the 1960s, production forestry has been opposed by conservation interests who argue that the remaining rainforest should be preserved for other values. In north Queensland, the result of a century of clearing has been to reduce the rainforest to the residual lands of the Great Divide. 2012-01-18T00:00:00Z Frawley, Kevin J.
