In 2013, The Dictionary received funds from the City of Sydney to commission a suite of entries highlighting the cultural histories of Sydney's harbour foreshore. The result is 21 entries by well-known writers of history, literature, theatre, dance, art and architecture including Edmund Capon, Delia Falconer, Ian Hoskins, Grace Karskens, David Marr and Frank Moorhouse. We hope you enjoy reading these unique contributions to the Dictionary.
