<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">In this article from The West Australian in 1952, notice of the upcoming stage production of Shakespeare’s “The Winter’s Tale” by the John Alden Shakespearean Company is given. The medieval costumes - including elaborate head-dresses, pointed shoes and draped sleeves - would be particularly appealing to Perth audiences, the article suggests, because they were such a marked change from the plays usually performed on the Perth stage. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">About The Winter’s Tale:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">In “The Winter’s Tale”, Leontes, the King of Sicilia, becomes consumed with jealousy that Hermione, his wife, is having an affair with the King of Bohemia (Polixenes). He instructs his councillor Camillo to poison Polixenes, but instead Camillo reveals Leontes’ plans and both he and Polixenes secretly leave for Bohemia. The pregnant Hermione is banished to prison, where she gives birth to a daughter. Refusing to believe the legitimacy of the child, Leontes demands that the child be burned alive and then, upon the protestations of his chief adviser Antigonus, abandoned off the coast of Bohemia. In the events that unfold over the following Act, Leontes refuses to believe an oracle from Apollo’s Temple exonerating Hermione’s and orders her trial to proceed, his son Mamillius dies, Hermione dies, Leontes realises his mistake and repents, Antigonus is killed by a bear and a shepherd finds the abandoned baby and takes her home. Sixteen years later, in Bohemia, the story recommences with Polixenes expressing concern that his son Florizel has fallen in love with a shepherdess. He attends a sheep-shearing festival in disguise, revealing himself at the last moment to prevent the betrothal of the couple, after which Florizel and the shepherdess are advised by Camillo (now Polixenes’ chief adviser) to flee to Sicilia. When Polixenes also arrives in Sicilia with the shepherd and his son, the shepherdess’ identity as Leontes’ lost child is discovered and her marriage to Florizel condoned, Leontes and Polixenes are friends once more, and a statue of Hermione comes to life, revealing that she is alive and has been waiting to be reunited with her daughter.</span></p>

Title

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
This oil on canvas painting by nineteenth-century artist Frederic Leighton was acquired by the Art Gallery of South Australia with funds from the Elder Bequest in 1899. Titled ‘The Feigned Death of Juliet’ it depicts a scene from William Shakespeare’s tragedy 'Romeo and Juliet'. In Act IV Scene V of the play, Count Paris arrives at the Capulet house with Friar Laurence to claim Juliet as his bride. However, instead of finding her ready to proceed to the church to be wed, he discovers Juliet seemingly lifeless in her chamber. In Leighton’s painting, Juliet is shown lying on a bed surrounded by her mother, her nurse, her father and Count Paris. Friar Laurence hovers in the corner and a band of musicians congregate by the open door with their instruments. Although the play was written in the 1590s, it is set in Verona in an earlier (but unspecified) period. The characters in the painting are all depicted wearing styles of dress typical of the High Middle Ages.

The head-dresses are described by the author as “millinery of medieval times”. </span></p>
