                  <text>This Collection analyses popular medievalism in material and public culture from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, with an emphasis on popular medievalist theatre, parades and public spectacles, as well as recreational, literary and political associations. It explores the ways in which medievalism was not simply derivative but also local and disctinctive. In this Collection you will find items relating to medievalism in public contexts and popular culture, and the revisitation or reenactment of the Middle Ages by groups such as the Society for Creative Anachronism.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Danelaw Medieval Fighting Society are a New South Wales re-enactment group who own The Danelaw, a 120 acre property in a pine forest between Sydney and Canberra that is used by re-enactment groups. The property includes a fort, axe- and knife-throwing areas, a tournament ring, as well as trebuchet&amp;rsquo;s, a type of catapult used in siege warfare from the twelfth century. The Danelaw Medieval Fighting Society were formed in the mid-1980s by James Adams as the Medieval Martial Arts Association of Southern Sydney. They adopted the current name in 2002. Members re-enact warfare methods with authentic costumes and weapons from throughout the medieval period, including such groups as Anglo-Saxons, Celts, Crusaders, Normans, Saracens, and the knights of the High Middle Ages. The property is named after the Danelaw of England, that part of England conquered and settled by the Vikings in the second half of the ninth century, and where aspects of &amp;lsquo;Danish&amp;rsquo; law were used.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                  <text>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.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;This photograph is of a life-size bronze sculpture of a Saracen warrior at the entrance to the cellar of Saracen Estates Winery on Caves Road in the Margaret River region of Western Australia. The warrior is mounted and carries a curved sword, known as a scimitar, and a round shield. Saracens were first mentioned by Roman authors and in the medieval period the term was often used to describe all Arabs, or even all Muslims. They were particularly associated with those fighting the European Crusaders during the medieval Crusades to the Holy Land.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
