The Enlightenment, Philanthropy and the Idea of Social Progress in Early Australia

This book seeks to highlight the influence of the Enlightenment idea of social progress on the character of the civilising mission in early Australia by tracing its presence in the various civilising attempts undertaken between 1788 and 1850. It also represents an attempt to marry the history of the British Enlightenment and the history of settler-Aboriginal interactions. The chronological structure of the book, as well as the breadth of its content, will facilitate the readers understanding of the evolution of civilising attempts and their epistemological underpinnings, while throwing additional light on the influence of the Enlightenment on Australian history as a whole.

Ilya Lazarev holds a PhD in History from the University of Melbourne, and an MA in International Relations from Ritsumeikan University, where he researched Russo-Japanese economic cooperation.

This book grew out of my doctoral thesis written at the University of Melbourne between 2012 and 2015, which I would not have been able to complete without the constant guidance, insights and constructive criticisms of my supervisors, Professor Trevor Burnard and Associate Professor Sean Scalmer. Their rigour, enthusiasm and patience helped me to bring this project to completion and discover my own unique way of interpreting historical events and ideas.

My special thanks goes to the librarians of the Victorian Archives Centre, the Heritage Collections Reading Room at the State Library of Victoria, Baillieu Library at my own alma mater, Melbourne University, their British colleagues at the Cadbury Research Library at Birmingham University, Birmingham City Library, the National Archives at Kew and the British Library. I am also very grateful to the very helpful staff of the Kyoto University library, Ritsumeikan University Library and the National Diet Library for their assistance in navigating the librarys extensive database and pointing me to useful resources.

This book would never have seen the light of day without the encouragement and unconditional support of my dear wife, Ayako, and my parents-in-law, Yoshiasu and Yoko Fujiwara. Their unwavering belief in my abilities and strengths has instilled in me the necessary confidence and determination to see this project through.

I also owe a special debt of gratitude to my friends in Britain, Australia and the United States, who have helped me in their own wonderful way and kept me motivated over the past several years. There are too many of you to thank you all by the name, but please rest assured that I value your advice and contributions deeply.

Last but not least, I would like to thank my mother, Olga Lazareva, for teaching me to value learning and to never give up on my dreams. I am certain that I would not have made it this far without her.

In August of 1830 John Dunmore Lang, the founder of the Presbyterian Church in Australia and one of most prominent public figures in the colony of New South Wales, was sailing for Britain to drum up support for the first Presbyterian school in Sydney. As bad luck would have it, just off the North Cape of New Zealand his ship ran into a violent storm, which lasted for over a week. While the raging waves buffeted the fragile cutter within sight of the misty mountain ranges, Langs thoughts turned to the subject, which had been preoccupying him for some time. As his eyes roved along the distant fog-bound peaks his mind dwelled on the progress of the missionary enterprise and the best means of civilising the heathen of this most distant outpost of the British Empire. His musings and reflections eventually coalesced into the following effusive verse, written in the form of a dialogue between himself and an imaginary sage or a natural philosopher.
