Congratulations to Senior Associate Libby Blamey – winner of best peer-reviewed article by Professional Historians Australia!
Her paper ‘Larrikin pushes: place and space in 19th-century inner Melbourne suburbs’ for the ninth edition of Circa was judged “A wonderful study of urban history... well presented and researched and… an excellent example of how history contributes to an understanding of heritage value.”
“Although written about Melbourne, it could have implications for all Australian cities. The concept of public spaces and hyper-localism was an interesting highlight.”
