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.

Description
An account of the resource
St Mary’s College is a day school for girls is located beside St Mary’s Catholic Cathedral in Hobart, Tasmania. The opening of the college was instigated by Bishop Daniel Murphy (1815-1907) in 1866 when he invited his sister Mother Superior Francis Murphy and four other Presentation Sisters to Hobart from Ireland. The school opened in February 1868. The original convent and school rooms were designed by architect Henry Hunter (1832-1892) and are still in use. The school is still administered by the Presentation Sisters. The large convent building (photograph one and two) includes Gothic features such as the pointed arch doorway, buttresses, pointed arch windows with tracery on the third storey, and three lancet windows in the tower. The smaller school building (photograph three) is in the Gothic Revival style and includes corner buttresses and groups of three lancet windows.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>The building of St Mary’s Catholic Cathedral, Hobart, Tasmania, was instigated by Tasmania’s first Catholic bishop, Robert William Willson (1794-1866). The building was designed by William Wardell and built between 1860 and 1866, supervised by Henry Hunter (1832-1892). It was opened by Willson's successor Bishop Daniel Murphy(1815-1907). However the building was found to be faulty and had to be largely dismantled and rebuilt to a modified design by Hunter between 1876 and 1881. The sandstone building is in the Gothic Revival style with blind arcading, buttresses, a rose window, niches, pointed arch doorways and windows (with tracery), pointed finials, lancet windows. The tower of the original cathedral did not survive the redesign. The extension to the right of the cathedral was added in 2010.</p>
