RaymondPierreL3QUT to become custodians of Meanjin
“Good news for the culture – QUT has announced it will be the new custodian of Meanjin, which brings it back to Brisbane 80 years after it was moved to Melbourne.
QUT Vice-Chancellor Professor Margaret Sheil said:
QUT is delighted to bring Meanjin home to Meanjin / Magandjin – the lands of the Turrbal and Yugara peoples – where the journal was founded and where our Gardens Point campus now stands.
Since its foundation by Clem Christesen in Brisbane in 1940, Meanjin has been instrumental in shaping Australian literary and intellectual culture,” she said. “It has provided a vital platform for critical discussion, a showcase of emerging writers and a valuable training ground for leading Australian publishers and editors. We are honoured to be entrusted with the legacy of this cultural icon.”
Under the terms of the transfer, QUT will appoint an editorial board to ensure Meanjin’s independence, values and standards are maintained and recruit an editor through a national competitive search.
Meanjin’s publication was abruptly stopped by MUP last year.”
