1 8 4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Medievalism at the Foundations Description An account of the resource This Collection illustrates how medievalism has always existed ‘in plain view’ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australia’s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australia’s medievalist political and religious institutions and rituals, ii) its architecture, and iii) its civic environment. In this Collection are items relating to all three of these key areas. Firstly, you will find items that point to the medieval influences and inflections that still permeate and influence our political, legal and religious institutions and traditions. Secondly, you will find numerous examples of neo-gothic and neo-romanesque architecture, and some cases where architectural features are known to have been modelled on specific medieval buildings. Thirdly, you will find items relating to the ways in which medievalism is incorporated into our civic environments and expressed through statues, monuments and war memorials.

Title A name given to the resource Launceston Aldermen Subject The topic of the resource Aldermen, Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, Beowulf, Byrhtnoth, council, councillors, county, ealdorman, government, Launceston, Lindisfarne Gospels, local government, Old English, shire, Tas, Tasmania, website. Description An account of the resource <p>While most local government councils in Australia are presided over by a mayor and councillors, Launceston City Council in Tasmania has a mayor and aldermen. This has been the case since the first election of alderman to the council in 1853, which were the first local government elections held in Van Diemen&rsquo;s Land (Tasmania). Alderman comes from the Old English term ealdorman, literally &lsquo;old man&rsquo;. They were high ranking royal officials in charge of a shire or county and its army until the term began to be superseded by eorl (earl), probably from Old Norse jarl, from the late tenth-century. The term ealdorman appears in such Anglo-Saxon texts as Beowulf, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and the Lindisfarne Gospels. Perhaps the most famous ealdorman was Ealdorman Byrhtnoth of Essex who lost the battle of Maldon to a Viking army in 991.</p> <p>For a list of current aldermen see <a href="http://www.launceston.tas.gov.au/lcc/?c=10">http://www.launceston.tas.gov.au/lcc/?c=10</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Launceston City Council Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Launceston City Council Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Hyperlink Aldermen Anglo-Saxon Anglo-Saxon Chronicle Beowulf Byrhtnoth council councillors county ealdorman government Launceston Lindisfarne Gospels local government Old English shire Tas Tasmania website.

Description An account of the resource <p>The McLaren Vale, South Australia, company Maxwell Wines produce three varieties of Maxwell Mead. Their website explains that although mead was first drunk much earlier than the medieval period, it has a particularly strong association with Scandinavian culture during the Viking Age (c. 790-1000), where the Mead of Poetry is a mythical drink that allows one to become a poet. Mead is also drunk by the Danish warriors in the Anglo-Saxon epic poem <em>Beowulf</em>. The website also claims that the term &lsquo;honeymoon&rsquo; comes from a newlywed couple being given mead as an aphrodisiac in the hope of conceiving a child (this etymology is difficult to prove).</p> <p>The label of Maxwell Mead features a medieval king standing in front of a stained glass window and holding a sword.</p> <p>For their website see <a href="http://www.maxwellwines.com.au/maxwell-mead/">http://www.maxwellwines.com.au/maxwell-mead/</a></p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Maxwell Wines Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Maxwell Wines Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Hyperlink Anglo-Saxon Beowulf beverage honey wine honeymoon king label Maxwell Mead Maxwell Wines McLaren Vale mead poetry SA Scandinavia South Australia stained glass sword Viking. https://ausmed.arts.uwa.edu.au/files/original/5e09eff44393481c2834c2d4dc6ba133.JPG c28d22ad9182b88d7c1e16eba393fbd4 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.
