Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. *Winner of the Australian History Prize in the NSW Premier's History Awards 2020**Shortlisted for the Queensland Literary Awards Non-Fiction Book Award**Shortlisted for the 2020 Ernest Scott Prize for History**Shortlisted for the Australian Historical Association's Kay Daniels Award*Madness…stalked the colony of New South Wales andtracing its wild path changes the way we look at our colonial history.What happened when people went mad in thefledgling colony of New South Wales? In this important new history, we find outthrough the tireless correspondence of governors and colonial secretaries, the delicatedescriptions of judges and doctors, the brazen words of firebrand politicians,and the heartbreaking letters of siblings, parents and friends. We also hearfrom the mad themselves. Legal and social distinctions faded as delusion anddisorder took root - in convicts exiled from their homes and living under theweight of imperial justice, in ex-convicts and small settlers as they grappledwith the country they had taken from its Indigenous inhabitants, and ingovernment officers and wealthy colonists who sought to guide the course ofEuropean history in Australia.These stories of madness are woven togetherinto a narrative about freedom and possibilities, unravelling and collapse. Bedlam at Botany Bay looks at people whofound themselves not only at the edge of the world, but at the edge of sanity.It shows their worlds colliding. 'Bedlam at Botany Bay is a page-turner. A cascade of vivid case studies and their tragi-comic impact on the penal colony carries the reader forward as James Dunk's forensic but compassionate examination reveals the interior - and exterior - madness of humanity in early Sydney.Don't miss it.' - Babette Smith, The Australian'Historians of early European settlement usually belong to one of two schools, Order or Disorder. The School of Order dwells on the intricacies of habit, custom, and law. Henry Reynolds, for instance, although he chronicled murder and dispossession, is ultimately a denizen of Order. He seems to assume that there was always a better way forward. The School of Disorder makes its contribution by shining light into the darker places of humanity. This book carries the stamp of Disorder. As James Dunk says, whatever theorists and administrators might think, in the minds of the powerless the project of settlement was chaotic. For some, the chaos was too hard to bear.' - Alan Atkinson, Australian Book Review'Dunk's book is a lyrical, humane and creative approach to writing the history of madness in and out of the asylum in Australia. His introduction and conclusion are master classes in good historical writing, reminiscent at times of the great Geoffrey Blainey in their fluency and attention to the tiny hooks of experience that catch the attention and imagination.' - Philippa Martyr, Social History of Medicine'Bedlam at Botany Bay is a beautifully written and evocative account of the fragility and violence of the early colonial years of New South Wales. Its central theme is the eruption and management of madness in the early decades of the colony but in this remarkable account madness also becomes a lens through which to explore deeper emotional, personal and social undercurrents in colonial society: the trauma of being forcibly transported across the world; the travails of long sea voyages; the fracturing of family ties; the tenuousness of colonial settlement; the threat posed by an alien environment; the political upheaval of the early years of settlement that set colonist against colonist, convict against master and soldier against governor; and the violence attending dispossession of the first nations people they encounte Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condición: New. What happened when people went mad in the fledgling colony of New South Wales? In this important new history of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, we find out through the correspondence of tireless colonial secretaries, the brazen language of lawyers and judges and firebrand politician…s, and heartbreaking letters from siblings, parents and friends. We also hear from the mad themselves. Class, gender and race became irrelevant as illness, chaos and delusion afflicted convicts exiled from their homes and living under the weight of imperial justice; ex-convicts and small settlers as they grappled with the country they had taken from its Indigenous inhabitants, as well as officers, officials and wealthy colonists who sought to guide the course of European history in Australia.This not a history of the miserable institutions built for the mentally ill, or those living within them, or the people in charge of the asylums. These stories of madness are woven together into a narrative about freedom and possibilities, and collapse and unravelling. The book looks at people at the edge of the world finding themselves at the edge of sanity, and is about their strategies for survival. This is a new story of colonial Australia, cast as neither a grim and fatal shore nor an antipodean paradise, but a place where the full range of humanity wrestled with the challenges of colonisation.The first book-length history of madness at the beginning ofEuropean AustraliaOriginal and evocative, it grapples seriously with the place ofmadness in Australia's convict historyThe book's intimate descriptions of madness and the response to itgive a unique picture of life in the early colony through the lens ofmental illnessAwareness of mental health continues to rise globally. This bookexplores efforts to understand and to treat madness before asylums,hospitals and doctors made madness a medical problem.Meticulously researched by James Dunk, a young emerginghistorian of medicine and colonialism.
