Bulletin Magazine, Australian literatureAbstract
The weekly current affairs magazine Bulletin became a cultural phenomenon in Australia at the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century. Among the factors that explain the hegemonic force it acquired in society are its nationalist positions, the mingling of roles between contributors and readers and the unusual dialogue between contributors, readers and editors, besides the support provided to several of the authors who would become national reference. Short, objective narratives became its trademarks and contributed to the development of an “Australian style” in literature.References
