Summary
The second Selden Society lecture for 2024, Robert Menzies at the Bar, will be presented by the Hon Justice Edelman, High Court of Australia. Shortly after retirement from politics, Sir Robert Menzies said that ‘[p]olitics proved to be my greatest duty. But the law remained my first love’. The Hon Justice Edelman will consider the extraordinary impact Menzies had on the law as author, barrister, Attorney-General for the State of Victoria, Attorney General of the Commonwealth and Prime Minister of Australia. In examining the influence of Menzies, there is a sense of how much more he might even have contributed had he not departed the legal profession. An interesting contrast arises between Menzies as a lawyer and his tutor, mentor and friend, Sir Owen Dixon.
