Description

In the opening lines of The New Zealand Wars: a History of the Maori Campaigns and the Pioneering Period (1922), James Cowan proposed: Eighty years later, the terms of this cross-cultural comparison were strikingly echoed in Outlawed: The world's rebels, revolutionaries and bushrangers (2003-4), the first major temporary exhibition to be developed in-house at the National Museum of Australia. Comparison was used in both of these cases to negotiate difficulties associated with fashioning a national history from episodes of frontier conflict, and strains and limits seen in each of these cases index ways in which this subject has been able and required to be conceptualised in specific places and at specific junctures. Although the Canberra exhibition is the major focus for the following discussion the paper begins by looking briefly at Cowan's history, a text which serves as a reminder that the comparative consideration of the histories of settler nations has a history of its own. Not only were many of the difficulties evident in Outlawed continuous with those arising in Cowan's project, but this earlier study also seems to gesture towards an alternative footing for the practice of cross-cultural comparison.
