Office of the RegistrarThis series is a collection of Pacific-related material donated by various students and staff.
Pacific Research ArchivesThis archive of images was put together by the late Professor A. L. Basham (1914-1986) during his tenure as professor and head of the department of Oriental (later Asian) civilizations at ANU (1965-1979). He helped set up the Faculty of Oriental (later Asian) Studies at ANU and played a pioneering role in teaching and research in this area. His book The Wonder that Was India (London: Sidgwick and Jackson, 1954) became a signal study in the field. Basham undertook extensive fieldwork in India and studied several classical Indian languages.
Upon his retirement, the erstwhile Department of Art History at ANU inherited his extensive collection of 35-mm slides, each slide accompanied by an index card with Basham’s typewritten (and sometimes handwritten) notes on the image. As the archive reveals, Basham had a deep interest in art and visual culture as an essential aspect of historical study, and was an accomplished photographer. These images represent an important ingredient in the historiography of ‘classical’ civilization in Asia, variously carried out by scholars working within and outside the region in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Basham, Arthur LlewellynThe records consist of submissions made by Australian tertiary institutions involved in the teaching of the discipline of engineering, employers of engineers, and members of the public; correspondence relating to submissions and to surveys of employers, students and graduates; and reports by independent assessors on visits to tertiary institutions.
