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 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 Spirit of Festival: What Lies Behind the Carol, The West Australian, 24 December 1937 Subject The topic of the resource Apprentices, book, carol, celebration, Christian tradition, Christmas, Christmas Carols, dancing, drinking songs, festival, festivity, Greccio, medieval custom, melodies, merriment, Miracle plays, Mystery plays, popular tunes, puritan, religious lyrics, revival, singing, song, St Francis of Assisi, tradition, Wynken de Worde. Description An account of the resource This article from The West Australian traces the history of Christmas carols back to the medieval period. It dates their origin to the beginning of the thirteenth century, when Francis of Assisi taught children to dance around a model of the manger in the Italian village of Greccio. Subsequently, they were introduced into England through the Mystery and Miracle plays. Although religious in content, the article notes with amusement that the carols were often set to the tune of drinking songs, presumably because they were familiar. Carols and the dances that accompanied them remained popular, the article claims, until Puritan edicts forbade Christmas festivities and all manner of celebration in the seventeenth century. Their survival is credited here to two nineteenth-century English clergymen, who translated a Swedish book of medieval melodies in 1853 and succeeded in reviving interest in carols and old folk songs more generally.

Set in the ninth-century and culminating in the Battle of Ethundane (Edington) in 878, the reviewer claims that this tale of Alfred the Great is based on evidence from chronicles. This most likely refers to the “Anglo-Saxon Chronicle”, and perhaps Asser’s “Life of Alfred”, both written during Alfred’s reign. After being forced to flee to the marshes around Athelney following the invasion of the Viking great army led by Guthrum (where the burning of the cakes episode mentioned by the reviewer supposedly happened), Alfred was able to rally an army and defeat the Vikings. The survivors fled to Chippenham but following a two-week siege they asked for a treaty. A peace treaty followed by which Guthrum and his leading supporters were baptised and the following year they settled East Anglia (part of the ‘Danelaw’), where Guthrum reigned until 890.

Title A name given to the resource "Men Call Me a Fool" Subject The topic of the resource Adonis, book, book review, books, court, duchess, fool, Francis I (1494-1547), hunchback, king, literature, medieval France, nobles, professional fool, review, tragedy, troubadour Description An account of the resource This article provides a short review of Dan Totheroh’s historical novel “Men Call me Fool”, published by Selwyn and Blount in 1929. Set in fourteenth-century France at the court of King Francis I, the plot centres on a professional fool and a youthful duchess who falls in love with him. Although professional fools were common in medieval courtly circles, the reviewer tells the reader, “mostly they were hunchbacks or deformed, but this one was an Adonis”, and also a troubadour. Summing up, the reviewer concludes that “There is a good deal of the atmosphere of the times and much that is realistic in the lives of these professional fools” and “the characterisation of the sensual king and his nobles is convincing”.

Title A name given to the resource The Lecture System Subject The topic of the resource book, books, Economics, English, History, lecture, lecturing, note-taking, medieval origins, Philosophy printing, professors, reading, Shakespeare, student learning, teaching, teaching methods, University, university origins, university examination, university teaching, class, education Description An account of the resource Weighing in on a wider printed debate about the cost and value of university teaching, the author of this article takes issue with the prevailing focus on lectures as the principal delivery mode for teaching in universities. He associates the development of lecturing with the medieval origins of universities and the need to disseminate knowledge before the invention of print. Following â€˜the book ageâ€™, however, the author suggests that lectures are redundant and superfluous. Rather than guiding students in their wider learning as intended, he argues, lectures have the opposite effect in that students regarded them as an adequate alternative to reading. In an age where books are accessible and the ability to read almost universal, he recommends that the teaching of subjects such as English, History, Economics and Philosophy should instead be based on independent student reading followed by class discussion. This would also have the effect of allowing professors more time to conduct research instead of preparing lectures. â€œIn the tenacity with which they [universities] still adhere to the propagation of knowledge by lecturesâ€, the author chides, â€œthere is something peculiarly medievalâ€.
