THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER

In the poem "Man of snowy river" written by Banjo Patterson,the Importance of the Australian outback is portrayed through many factors in this poem. The first is the connection and dependence between animals, fauna and man. The Man from Snowy River shows the vast size of the the states in Australia ,and the distances they had to travel to catch the herd.It tells us about the different tactics that it takes to catch a horse and the determination of this one man to prove himself to his peers.

The bush is represented as a brutal,courageous and harsh environment a place where boys are made into men.for example from the quote below ,the adjectives imidiately build an image in your head of confronting and imposing environment for anyone, let alone a person that does not know the land. Although the bush is described as this Banjo Patterson still makes it appealing to the reader and relatable. The reader is left wanting to read more of this dramatic journey.

The man from snowy mountain show the other Australians to be more courageous,brave and less fearful. For the audenience it is a reminder that there are times in our lives where we need to take a leap of faith and take a risk.In order for us to gain anything or get where we want to be, it is especially important to remember that when others do not have faith in you you still have to have faith in yourself.
 * **"Then fast the horsemen followed, where the gorges deep and black**
 * Resounded to the thunder of their tread,**
 * And the stockwhips woke the echoes, and they fiercely answered back**
 * From cliffs and crags that beetled overhead. "** ||

It also reminds us not to judge on apearences as that does not determine the amount of skill or bravery and ones ability.


 * **"..still so slight and weedy, one would doubt his power to stay,**

 * For a long and tiring gallop --- lad, you'd better stop away,**
 * Those hills are far too rough for such as you".** ||
