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 â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™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 May Subject The topic of the resource celebration, custom, dancing, festivities, James II (r.1685-1688), Maia, May, May Day, maypole, medieval custom, medieval festivities, medieval procession, merrymaking, public holiday, puritans, Restoration, Roman, Romans Description An account of the resource In this article from the Western Mail, the author relates details of the historical customs and festivities associated with the month of May. The article begins by describing the medieval tradition of â€˜a-mayingâ€™ and merrymaking on the first day of the month: â€˜May dayâ€™. This involved processions and dancing, often around a maypole. Maypoles, the author goes on to explain, were viewed as especially objectionable by the Puritans in the seventeenth century, and banned by Parliament between 1644 and 1660. The article concludes by suggesting that the name â€˜mayâ€™ was most likely Roman in origin - after Maia, the mother of Mercury. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.
