Greek Australians in their own image: recreation in the new world

    Research output: Contribution to Newspaper/Magazine/WebsiteArticle

    Abstract

    This article highlights the recreation of Greek-Australians from a historical perspective. Recreational activities became a well-established feature of Greek-Australian life during the first-half of the twentieth century, either as an individual pass-time or a family and community affair. Collective activities reinforced a secure sense of shared ethnicity and belonging whilst navigating the economic and socio-cultural landscape of the broader Australian society.
