In Her Own Image: Greek-Australian Women, a talk by Leonard Janiszewski and Effy Alexakis.
The stories of Greek-Australian women over almost 200 years reveal and revel in individual and collective successes, failures, hopes and dreams. Of an Australia of challenges, a Greece of memory and a faith in the unfolding of a potentially unlimited future. This presentation attempts to instigate a commencement along the road of detailed inquiry into a historical understanding of Greek-Australian women.
