Summary/Abstract |
The author has been chronicling wars for a while. She has found that the most fascinating part of the exercise has been the interaction with the magnificent soldiers who fought these wars and came back to us and can now tell us not just their own stories but also those of the braves who could not return. The article narrates some of those stories that she has gathered.

Summary/Abstract |
As the Great War entered 1915, the stalemate continued unabated on the Western Front. In an attempt to force the Central Powers’ hand, Winston Churchill – then First Lord of the Admiralty – developed plans to drive the Ottomans out of the war and, potentially, to bring Greece and Bulgaria in on the side of the Allies. He proposed a naval attack on the Dardanelles, which would expose Istanbul and open up a supply route with Russia.

Summary/Abstract |
Yolŋu people living in northeast Arnhem Land regularly celebrate their connections with the Macassan trepangers from Indonesian Sulawesi in storytelling, art and music. The history of this contact is well known in academic literature, and these stories of Macassan contact are told regularly by Yolŋu people to tourists visiting northeast Arnhem Land. This paper explores the impact that hearing stories about the Macassans from one Yolŋu family's tourism business had on a group of Australian Indonesian language teachers, visiting as part of an Endeavour Language Teaching Fellowship. It draws on ideas related to telling and hearing stories and argues that these particular stories enabled the teachers to make powerful connections: with each other and with Australia's histories and geographies. The paper also explores the ways in which the teachers went on to become storytellers themselves, using stories to make connections in their students' learning.
