INDSL3108 Myths and Massacres: The Historiography of Violence
This course explores the evidence relating to killings of Aborigines by Europeans and considers the interpretations which historians have placed on this evidence. The parts played by oral accounts, written records, demographic data and physical evidence in the reconstruction of past events will be examined. The relationship between historical accounts of past atrocities and the meaning and process of Reconciliation with Indigenous Australia is considered. The various positions presented in current debates concerning the meaning, purpose and accuracy of historical accounts of massacres will be reviewed.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
