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.

Designed by American architect John Eberson in conjunction with Melbourne firm Bohringer, Taylor & Johnson, The Forum was originally built as a cinema palace. Completed in 1928, it is one of four cinemas that opened in Melbourne in the 1920s. The exterior of the building combines Spanish Mission and ‘Alhambresque’ Moorish Revival architecture. The minarets, cupola’s and pressed cement decorations are reminiscent of Islamic Spanish architecture dating from the eighth to the fifteenth century. The Iberian Peninsula was conquered in 711 by the Muslim army of Tariq ibn Ziyad, and the various southern Spanish States remained under Arab or Moorish Islamic rule until they were gradually reconquered by Catholic monarchs throughout the later medieval period. The reconquest ended with the conversion of Andalusia in 1492.
