The great south land of Australia had existed, as an uncivilized continent in the southern hemisphere, for millions of years, completely separate from the European culture. When the first Europeans landed on it, the environmental and ecological distinction of Australia provided the new inhabitants with the unique ground work on which they were to develop their own characteristics as Australians in later years. Above all, the Australian bush influenced the spontaneous evolution of Australia after it had been established artificially by transporting from Britain.
Henry Lawson (1864-1922) is synonymous with Australian literature. He was writing fiction and poetry that has been essential in defining the Australian national character at the exact time that Australia itself was becoming a reality. Lawson's literary peak was the turbulent and crucial period linking the 19th to the 20th century when what had been colonies of the British Empire moved to establish complete independence and found a brand new nation. When Australia celebrated its official independence on January1. 1901, Henry Lawson was already the literary father of his country.
The bush is an indispensable environment in the world of Lawson's literature. Lawson's bush characters live their lives being suffered from hardships that bush brings to them. Some of them written in loneliness, some hover between severe circumstances, his bush characters develop their Australian characteristics and greatly contributed to set up Australianism in Lawson's literature.
