Speaking of History

Professor Julia Horne introduces a new History of University Life podcast series, Speaking of History, presented by Dr Gabrielle Kemmis. The series draws on recently digitized cassette tapes of interviews conducted in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s with former University of Sydney staff and students. 

 

Six people feature in this series: Elizabeth Pope, Sir Garfield Barwick, Dulcie Barr, Nancy Osborne, Hermann Black, and Victor Burgmann, all students at the University between the wars, who went on to interesting and varied careers.

The series is supported by the School of Humanities in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Sydney. This promotional episode features Julia Horne, Gabrielle Kemmis and Elizabeth Pope. Technical production by Peter Adams
