This podcast series coincides with the 100-year anniversary of Henry Lawson’s death. We explore Lawson through the eyes of a Lawson scholar and through one "meeting" Lawson for the first time. The podcast includes events from Lawson’s life and examination of his works. The series is called the Henry Lawson’s Crumbs Podcast because of a newspaper column Lawson wrote early in his career—the column was called Country Crumbs and so, borrowing “Crumbs” from that title we recognise we cannot discuss all aspects of Lawson’s life and work but, rather, we focus on interesting and significant crumbs.

Episode Seven: Henry Lawson and the Bulletin

With dynamic editors like J.F. Archibald and A.G. Stephens, the Bulletin magazine became an immense force in the development of Australian short story writing and poetry. For a short story writer and poet like Henry Lawson, the Bulletin was the perfect outlet. In this episode we discuss the early days of the Bulletin from its inception in 1880. We talk about prominent figures associated with the magazine and the relationships between Henry Lawson and some of those people.
