Director of Westerly Research Group, Chair of Australian Literature since 2020 / The University of Western Australia
Associate Professor Tony Hughes-d’Aeth is a multiple award-winning literary history author and has lived around the world including Australia, Europe and the United States. He believes it is literature, more than any other document, that tells us what the past felt like because it offers a record of interior life experiences. Assoc Prof Hughes-d’Aeth’s published works on Australian literature and cultural history have attracted national acclaim, receiving the Ernest Scott and the WK Hancock prizes for Australian history for his book Paper Nation: The Story of the Picturesque Atlas of Australasia. He has completed research on comparative media studies (including new media theory, film and television studies) on Australian literature and film, and on psychoanalytic criticism.
