  • Resumen

  • Tiwi Story: Turning History Downside Up (New SouthPress, 2023) is a groundbreaking work of history that spans from Deep Time to the present. Applying a range of historical methodologies, it centres Tiwi oral histories and visits key episodes that include the creation stories of the islands, trade relationships with Macassans and Japanese, the failed British colonisation attempt of the 1820s, Tiwi experiences of World War II, and the enduring influence of the mission founded by Catholic priest Francis Xavier Gsell. The Tiwi Islands are situated north of Darwin at the outer reaches of Northern Australia, but the accounts shared in this book offer vital lessons for makers of First Peoples history across the region. Women’s experience, intercultural relations and religious conversion all become ripe for reappraisal in this rich, multi-vocal work. In this interview, co-editors and authors Mavis Kerinaiua and Dr Laura Rademaker talk to Dr Alexandra Roginski about the ‘canon’ of Tiwi stories, book making as community process, and the place of the work within a wider project of recording and strengthening Tiwi culture.
