1 8 6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. 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 ‘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.

Title A name given to the resource ‘Heraldic’ domestic pattern window, Front entrance, Longerenong homestead, Longerenong, Victoria Subject The topic of the resource Celtic, Ferguson & Urie, floral grid pattern, flowers, harp, heraldry, John Lyon, Longerenong homestead, medieval design, Samuel Wilson, Stained glass, Victoria, VIC, window Description An account of the resource This ‘heraldic’ pattern transom hangs over the doorway at Longerenong homestead in Victoria. Central to the design is a golden Celtic harp on blue shield (c. 13th century) representing owner Samuel Wilson’s Irish roots. This is flanked by his initials (S W), and the year (AD 1862). A ‘diapered’ medieval floral grid pattern dominates the background, and alternate blue and white flowers attached to golden stems and leaves, occupy the red outer borders. Beverley Sherry points out that, “The nineteenth-century pioneers of Victoria’s pastoral districts had a strong sense of family pride and this was [often] expressed in stained glass” (Australia’s Historic Stained Glass, Sydney, Murray Child, 1991, p.37). The colourful ‘Longerenong’ window provides an excellent example of such expression.

Title A name given to the resource Fair Rosamund Subject The topic of the resource Arthur Hughes (1832-1915), Eleanor of Aquitaine, fleur-de-lys, flowers, foxgloves, garden, Henry II of England, iris, maze, mistress, poison, Rosamund, secret garden, symbolism, VIC, Victoria, Walter de Clifford, Woodstock Description An account of the resource This work by English artist Arthur Hughes depicts the twelfth-century figure of Rosamund in the garden that King Henry II of England created for her at his royal residence in Oxfordshire. Rosamund was Henry’s mistress. She was reputedly poisoned in 1176 by Eleanor of Aquitaine, Henry's wife. Eleanor can be seen in the background of the painting discovering the entrance to the secret garden, which was only accessible by way of a maze. As Ted Gott et al suggest,the selection of flowers in the painting add important symbolism - blue foxgloves, a source of poison, line the queen’s path, while purple irises are visible in the foreground. Irises were associated with the Greek Goddess Iris who chaperoned the souls of dead women to the Elysian Fields, and also with the fleur-de-lys, a symbol of the French crown. Eleanor of Aquitaine was the Queen of France from 1137-1152. (See Ted Gott et al, 19th Century Painting and Sculpture in the International Collections of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, National Gallery of Victoria, 2003, p.78).

The style of the dance is derived from the English villages of the Cotswolds and is characterised by groups of six men dressed in white clothing with coloured baldricks, bell pads and flower-covered hats dancing in formation. The dancers also frequently make use of handkerchiefs and sticks in this form of morris dance. The origins of morris dancing are subject to debate, with some scholars arguing that it developed from a pagan fertility ritual, and others arguing that it originated in the medieval period. Scholars involved in collating references to morris dancing for the ‘Early Morris Project’ have suggested that the earliest written reference is in two English wills dated 1458 (see John Forrest and Michael Heaney, ‘Charting Early Morris’ in Folk Music Journal, vol.6, no.2, 1991, pp.169-186). Morris dancing has also frequently been linked to the month of May and the dancing and festivities that took place around the maypole. The Perth Medieval Fayre is organised and run by the Western Australian Medieval Alliance. In 2011 it was held at Supreme Court Gardens on 19 March. Enthusiasts and vendors showcased a range of medieval arts and crafts, from dancing, calligraphy and lace-making to demonstrations of the techniques, weaponry and apparel of medieval combat.

It traces an arc from the populist literary medievalism of the nineteenth century, through the more rarefied modernist turn of the mid-twentieth century, to the re-emergence of popular forms such as children’s literature and fantasy since the 1980s.
