Conclusion -- . 330 $aThis book reconstructs the history of a group of British Quaker families and their involvement in the process of settler colonialism in early nineteenth-century Australia. Their everyday actions contributed to the multiplicity of practices that displaced and annihilated Aboriginal communities. Simultaneously, early nineteenth-century Friends were members of a translocal, transatlantic community characterized by pacifism and an involvement in transnational humanitarian efforts, such as the abolitionist and the prison reform movements as well as the Aborigines Protection Society. Considering these ideals, how did Quakers negotiate the violence of the frontier? To answer this question, the book looks at Tasmanian and South Australian Quakers' lives and experiences, their journeys and their writings. Building on recent scholarship on the entanglement between the local and the global, each chapter adopts a different historical perspective in terms of breadth and focused time period. The study combines these different takes to capture the complexities of this topic and era. 410 0$aCambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies,$x2635-1641 606 $aImperialism 606 $aAustralasia 606 $aHistory 606 $aReligion$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 606 $aAustralian History 606 $aHistory of Religion 606 $aSocial History 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aAustralasia. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aReligion$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 14$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aAustralian History. 615 24$aHistory of Religion. 615 24$aSocial History. 676 $a289.60922415 676 $a990 700 $aBischoff$b Eva$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0963837 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910372758603321 996 $aBenevolent Colonizers in Nineteenth-Century Australia$92185814 997 $aUNINA
