Description

Explore the historical relationship between scripture translation and linguistics in early Australia. This book offers a detailed introduction to the work of Biraban, an Awabakal man, and the missionary Lancelot Threlkeld. It provides a deep look into Threlkeld's linguistic field work in Raiatea before his arrival in New South Wales, offering context for his later efforts. Readers will learn how these translations fit into the history of Australian missionary linguistics and the movement of the settler frontier. The text uses newly discovered manuscripts, including the Gospel of St Matthew, to analyze the collaboration between Biraban and Threlkeld. This work serves as a vital resource for those interested in the history of language, missionary studies, and the eyewitness accounts of the expanding Australian frontier.
