The Polynesian Society is a non-profit organization based at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. Founded in 1892, the Society’s aim was the scholarly study of past and present New Zealand Māori and other Pacific Island peoples and cultures. It has pursued this aim primarily through the Journal of the Polynesian Society, a quarterly publication begun at the Society’s inception and enduring to the present.
The early issues of the Journal contain a rich repository of indigenous texts and traditions contributed by Pacific peoples, as well as by missionaries and other sojourners, often published in local languages with English translations. Among the scholars who have long contributed articles to the Journal are social/cultural anthropologists, archaeologists, historians, linguists and physical/biological anthropologists working in Micronesia and Melanesia, as well as Polynesia. More recently they have been joined by sociologists, political scientists, economists and other scholars. |  |

Smithyman Online: Collected Poems 1943-1995 by Kendrick Smithyman. Edited & with notes by Margaret Edgcumbe & Peter Simpson.
The purpose of this website is to make available as widely as possible the life’s work, in the form in which he wished it to be preserved, of one of New Zealand’s most prolific and fascinating poets. We are convinced that, although Smithyman’s work is not widely known beyond New Zealand, he will find many enthusiastic readers wherever good poetry in English is appreciated. The website also includes a chronology of Smithyman’s life and a section for the publication of articles or notes about his work. Readers are warmly invited to submit material to be considered for publication in this section. |  |
