Abstract

I would particularly like to thank my supervisor, Professor Barry Rose, and Professor
Michael Roe of the Department of History, University of Tasmania, for their generous
and patient support during the time this thesis took to write. Dr Fred Levine, School of
Art, University of Tasmania, read the thesis in its first draft and also offered me a number
of valuable suggestions regarding the re-organisation of its structure for which I have
been most grateful. The bulk of the research, particularly for Chapters 1, 4, 5 and 6, was
carried out during a three-month visit to Paris in 1988, for which I would like to thank Mr
Geoff Parr, Director, Tasmanian School of Art. I received a great deal of assistance from
the staff of the Departement des Estampes at the Bibliotheque Nationale during the stay in
Paris. Back in Hobart, the Centre for the Arts Library staff, particularly Mrs Meg Taylor
and Ms Gill Ward, have been extremely generous with their time and on numerous
occasions provided bibliographical assistance. Finally, Suzette Holmes not only read the
text critically but helped to solve several difficult translation problems. I must claim
authorship of the translated quotes with all of their faults, however she offered many
suggestions for which I am very grateful.
