What was Banjo Paterson's most well-known piece of poetry?
I have an post on Banjo Paterson (Andrew Barton Paterson) and I need to know what his most famous poem was.
Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson was a principal icon of poetry all around the world. Believe it or not , he actually had more than just one famous piece of poetry. Some of these poems included 'Waltzing Matilda', 'The Man from Snowy River', 'The Man from Ironbark' and 'Clancy of the Overflow'.
However, his still most legendary poem is 'Waltzing Matilda'. It was published by him in 1895 and still remains to this day, the most famous poem in Australia's history. It was even regularly suggested as the national anthem.
Annotated Banjo Paterson poem?
Can someone please annotate a banjo paterson ode PLEASE. or any other poem that depicts australian culture/voice.
Or any suggestions on good poems, songs, paintings, that have a earnest australian meaning.
Exactly google Banjo Paterson or Judith Wright. There is a wealth of information on both poets and their work on google. Paterson was one of the original bush poets, while Wright had a distinctly Australian expression. Her poem "I love a sunburned country" has been taught to and recited by primary school children for more than fifty years and is considered something of a inhabitant icon.
EDIT: Or otherwise you could consider doing the immortal Holden TV commercial, Football, Meat pies & Holden cars, lol.
