The musical, One Night the Moon written by Racheal Perkins explores a unique culture perspective through gender, race and age. The form of this text emphasises the perspective of both the Aboriginal people and the post- colonial Europeans. This also allows the viewer to become a part of the text as they can relate to one or more of the cultures in the musical.

The humorous and ironic way in which the play Pygmalion is written, denotes the contextual background of England in the 1700's. Through the use of political satire, dramatic irony and characterisation Bernard Shaw, creates a play which delves into his personal perspectives of the culture of the era and innocently mocks the etiquette, characteristics and desirability of the social classes at the time.

Form and diction are critical when capturing an author’s cultural experience. Consequently, it allows the reader to better understand the struggles and idiosyncrasies of individuals in a society, despite belonging to a cultural group. This is explored throughout Maureen Ten’s poem ‘Translucent Jade’ and Merlinda Bobis’ poem ‘This is Where it begins’ as the reader is able to understand the complexities of identity as the personal struggle or find comfort in a cultural group and the connection to ancestors. 

ospovat.kiana:
Form is important in capturing an author’s unique cultural experience, this therefore helps us gain a better understanding of the society around us. Within Adam Aitken, Kim Cheng Boey, Michelle Cahill Asian Australian Contemporary Poetry, there is a clear representation of the collective and the individual identity.
