“Belonging is a means of discovering your place in the world. Once you are accepted‚ there is a continuous process of learning and understanding. Sometimes we even learn that we in fact do not belong.” Peter Skrzynecki uses poems and poetic techniques to effectively reflect on his past life in order to try and gain a better understanding of his present and future life. Two poems that really stood out to me were that of “10 Mary Street” and “St Patricks College”. Both poems reflect the area of

These three texts demonstrate that an individual can make difficult choices to

Although the notion of ‘belonging’ entails a need for acceptance by others‚ the first barrier one must face is coming to terms with one’s own identity. This essay‚ I will explore two interrelated issues. First‚ it is the inability to reconcile one’s identity that prevents one from belonging. Second‚ it is only through engaging with one’s surrounding that a better sense of self may be achieved. These themes are expressed in Peter Skrzynecki’s suite of poems‚ the Immigrant Chronicles (1975)‚ where

Through this nourishment of belonging a sense of understanding arises and when the choice is made to prevent belonging a sense of not belonging is established. This is illustrated by Peter Skrzynecki’s poetry from the Immigrant Chronicles‚ Neighbours by Tim Winton. The poem Postcard can be seen in context with the Immigrant Chronicles in addressing feelings

Feliks Skrzynecki: Identity: 1. Peter‘s father Five years of forced labor in prisoner of war camp during World War II “did not dull the “softness of his blue eyes”. The juxtaposition of the words “forced” and “softness” show Peter is different from his father in the face of the discomfort his father has endured the suffering. This negative experience has helped to define the father’s identity but also highlight the composer’s different perspective. 2. “remnants of language/ I inherited
