Podcasts about Les Murray

Michelle chats with Dr Toby Davidson, editor of Francis Webb's Collected Poems, about the comic element in his poetry of the 1940s, 50s and 60s. Webb (1925 - 73) is an enigma, a postwar prodigy respected by some of the loftiest names in Australian poetry - Judith Wright, Gwen Harwood, Les Murray, Robert Adamson - but largely unknown to the general public. 2025 marks 100 years since the poet's birth, and the Francis Webb Centenary will be marked with essays, podcasts and tribute readings to shine a fresh light on this North Sydney genius who astonished his contemporaries with his white-hot talent and fierce questioning of social norms, both of which are immediately evident in his character sketches, Shakespearean clowns and spiky satirical ripostes.    Francis Webb Centenary homepage (hosted by UWA Publishing): https://uwap.uwa.edu.au/blogs/marginalia/centenary-of-major-australian-poet-francis-webb?srsltid=AfmBOooROr-1QfHD21zlUOLgdi1IveEr8AHUiZBW-VA5gVwNxG3SwIU9   Ian Dickson's 2022 recital of 'A Drum for Ben Boyd' from the Australian Book Review podcast, introduced by ABR poetry editor John Hawke: https://www.australianbookreview.com.au/podcast/760-the-abr-podcast/8039-on-the-australian-poet-francis-webb-the-abr-podcast-66

Ovom godišnjom nagradom, čiji su pokrovitelji australska kancelarija UNHCR-a i SBS, odaje se priznanje Malbaši, nekadašnjem izbjeglici iz bivše Jugoslavije, a sada uspješnom advokatu, za njegov volonterski rad za prava izbjeglica, otvorenosti da javno govori o potresnom izbjegličkom iskustvu, kao i za rad na promjeni narativa o tome kako se gleda na izbjeglice u široj australskoj javnosti.

Dobitnik novoustanovljene nagrade  za uspješnog Australca koji je u zemlju došao kao izbjeglica je pravnik i zagovornik prava izbjeglica  Danijel Malbaša, rodom iz Benkovca u Hrvatskoj. Malbaša, koji je kao dijete dva puta  prošao kroz izbjegličko iskustvo, odlučan je promijeniti negativnu percepciju izbjeglica u dijelu australske javnosti. 

Người đầu tiên được trao Giải thưởng Les Murray tôn vinh những đóng góp của người tị nạn là Danijel Malbasa, xuất thân là người tị nạn Nam Tư. Ông được vinh danh vì rất nhiều nỗ lực giúp đỡ cộng đồng người tị nạn với tư cách là một luật sư và nhà biện hộ.

Био је то и повод да га замолимо за разговор током којег је рекао колико му значи ово призанање, осврнуо се на своје сопствено искуство као избеглице и говорио о плановима за будућност.  

In 2019, one of Australia's best-known poets, Les Murray, passed away at the age of eighty. James Carleton and the panel discuss how Murray's faith influenced his writing, and examine the power of myth and story.

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: voicesoftoday.net/cjd C. J. Dennis Collection Narrated by Sarah Bacaller and Denis Daly Between 1915 and 1921 C. J. Dennis published seven verse novels and two collections of poetry. The first of these was The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke, which features Dennis' characteristic use of a distinctive Australian argot and which became a immediate best seller. The other titles are The Moods of Ginger Mick (1916) Doreen (1917) Digger Smith (1918) Jim of the Hills (1919) Rose of Spadgers (1924) Backblock Ballads and Later Verses (1918) A Book for Kids (1921) The Glugs of Gosh (1917) Dennis's poetry is significant not only for its skilful use of the vernacular but also for its evocative portrayal of a post colonial lifestyle which has changed radically since the Second World War. In 1985 the C. J. Dennis Prize for Poetry was established, and laureates have included such luminaries as Rosemary Dobson, Gwen Harwood, Bruce Beaver and Les Murray.

Performed by Peter Carroll / Introduced by Peter Goldsworthy The late Les Murray was our unofficial poet laureate – irascible, generous, thoughtful, refractory. His poetry was so influential it rewrote our vernacular. He moves us as he is effortlessly profound. In this special event, veteran of the Australian stage Peter Carroll performs a broad survey of Les's verse, from his early work in the Sydney years to selections from the newly released posthumous Continuous Creation. Joseph Brodsky described Les as “quite simply, the one by whom the language lives.” In this presentation by another of our national treasures, the language lives on.

Fran Lock has a wonderful virtual sit-down with Alan Humm, founder and editor of One Hand Clapping,  a free online magazine that attempts to help new, under-represented and unpublished authors, as well as artists, musicians and composers, by featuring them in the same pages as those who are more established.  Alan is a writer and a teacher of English who has just completed his first collection, the intriguingly titled: A Brief and Biased History of Love.  He is also the editor and founder of One Hand Clapping Magazine, which began its online life last year, but which published a single glorious print version three years prior, and we're going to talk about that and about the transition from print to digital a little later on. So far, we have been lucky enough to feature work by Ali Smith, Les Murray, Hilary Mantel, Lydia Davis, Mark Doty, Colm Toibin, Paul Muldoon, John Burnside, Gillian Clarke, David Harsent, Martin Parr, and many others alongside our less-well-known contributors.

Today's poem is Once In A Lifetime, Snow by Les Murray.

Craig Foster (@Craig_Foster) is a former Socceroos captain, SBS Chief Football Analyst and a renowned global advocate for diversity and social harmony. I was absolutely overjoyed when he accepted my invitation to have a chat about football and human rights. Growing up as a football fan, SBS's coverage of the game was my authority. Craig Foster, along with the late Les Murray and Johnny Warren have been very influential figures covering Australian football in the media. Craig reminisces over World Cup memories, from when he saw his first tournament as a boy growing up in regional NSW to being on-the-ground for SBS during the Socceroos roller coaster Germany 2006 World Cup campaign. We talk about his football philosophy. how he would like the game to develop and reach its potential in Australia. Craig then shares insight on global sports governance and the intersection of sport with human rights. We conclude with an update on his current work in this important field. This is a must-listen episode for Australian football fans and those with an interest in human rights.

This week's Book Club podcast features one of the great wise men of the literary world: Professor John Carey - emeritus Merton Professor of English at Oxford, author of authoritative books on Milton, Donne and Dickens as well as the subject-transforming broadside The Intellectuals and the Masses. (He's also lead book reviewer for a publication we shall call only the S****y T***s, but we pass over that.) In his new book, A Little History of Poetry, he sweeps us with his usual elan from the Epic of Gilgamesh to the backyard of Les Murray. I asked him (among other things) what constitutes poetry, why 'Goosey Goosey Gander' has it all, what he discovered in his researches, and why the so-called New Criticism got old. The Book Club is a series of literary interviews and discussions on the latest releases in the world of publishing, from poetry through to physics. Presented by Sam Leith, The Spectator's Literary Editor. Hear past episodes here (https://audioboom.com/dashboard/4905582) .

Boris Johnson picked up the prime ministerial ball as it came loose from the back of the scrum, Scott Morrison baseball-capped his way back into government, and Trump impeachment talk turned to (some) action. We said goodbye to towering figures in literature and politics, including Toni Morrison, Bob Hawke, Les Murray, Clive James and Mary Oliver. And we farewelled meowing figures of the internet. (R.I.P.

Beyoncé came home, Fyre Festival blew up (again) and Lil Nas X shot to stardom via TikTok. Ah yes, how could we forget: TikTok. Goodbye 2019 … we hardly knew ye!
