The Bulletin in Australasian Cultural Clash
A Sydney Letters page essay by Mr. Hervey critiques the Bulletin’s portrayal of Australian life in a storm of praise and rebuke. The writer urges cleaner national art over sensational depictions of “Sarrikin” types, calling for virtuous portraits of Young Australia and a purge of coarse verse and prose. The piece defends The Bulletin’s influence while faulting its moral and aesthetic excesses.
