	Dissertation Abstract
		Howitt's cosmopolitan tourist performs a triangulation of culture (especially poetry), rural life, and national identity: landscape and literature, defined in nationalistic terms, reciprocate in a process of mutual authentication out of which a sense of national identity is both constructed and affirmed.
		While Howitt defines his project in terms of an extension of Wordsworthian Republicanism--opening up the countryside to the masses--his own vision is colored by the reformer's desire for social control, as the experience of rural life is organized around such bourgeois values as self-help, and uncomplaining labor.
		Just as Gaskell herself moved from the country to the city, the movement of her characters between those two spaces becomes the means of exploring the possibilities for a new relationship between rural and urban in the modern world.

		Howitt, who, with his multifarious and laborious duties, in so difficult a country to traverse, is always ready and willing to aid in any scientific investigation of the natural products of Gippsland, and who with infinite difficulty succeeded in procuring three specimens for me of this River-Lizard.

		Henry Kingsley and William Howitt; Marcus Clarke: “Rolf Boldrewood”.
		Henry Kingsley’s Geoffrey Hamlyn, though a story of Australia, founded on the author’s experiences during his brief stay in the colony, can scarcely be considered a novel of Australian origin; and William Howitt’s A Boy’s Adventures in the Wilds of Australia stands in the same category.
		Perhaps the earliest properly Australian novels were Clara Morison and others by Catherine Helen Spence, who was better known as a political writer; and Charles Rowcroft’s colonial stories showed that Australian fiction was struggling into being.
