  • The Soldiers’ Press
    Graham Seal
    Why did millions of men agree to fight the most horrific war in history? And go on doing it, in many cases, for years? The question of consent is one of the many issues of the Great War that still haunt us today. The soldiers of 1914-1918 created a large body of newspapers and magazines by, for and about themselves. Often misleadingly called ’trench journals’, these rich archiv...

But it seems that we have nagging doubts. Continually, we tell each other odd tales about ankle slashers and hairy-armed women in the shopping mall. We hear about phantom hitchhikers and headless bikies on the highways. Drea...

  • DOGS EYE AND DEAD HORSE
    Graham Seal
    It’s much more fun to say ’What’s the John Dory?’ instead of ’What’s the story?’ and ’Give me a Captain Cook’ instead of ’Give me a look’, and wonderfully cheeky to remark ’Who made the apple tart?’ instead of ’Who made a fart?’ But there is also a darker side to rhyming slang - it can be used like a secret code (perhaps that’s why criminals have always been fond of it!).
