Klappentext zu „The Visitable Past “
Anglo-Australian literature has originally developed out of British literature, with which it has always been engaged in a continuous intertextual dialogue, so it is dependent on the British literary tradition. The result of this condition is a cultural tension between Australia and Britain. Subjective, socially-based literary images projected from the Australian context about Britain, about Australia's cultural roots, about its progenitors and its believed sources in Europe, have grown directly out of this tension and reveal the conscious and unconscious development of the Anglo-Australian mind within its given cultural condition.

Pressezitat
"Bader's study is massively learned and meticulously researched, covering a broad spectrum of Australian cultural history and literary production which ranges from Clarke's antiimperial polemics to the metaphysical and spiritual dimensions of White's fiction and taking in a mass of minor novels alongside the famous ones." (Derek Wright, The International Fiction Review)"His øBader's! study encourages the reader to think further in the topic. As a result, 'The Visitable Past' will deserve its place as the standard work on its topic in Australian literary studies." (Michael Wilding, Zeitschrift für Anglistik und Amerikanistik)
"Bader's book will be especially welcomed by Australian academics and scholars for its European perspective on an important phase of modern Australian writing and culture." (Vivian Smith, Australian Literary Studies)
