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 &lsquo;Melbourne Investiture: Honours Conferred with Sword&rsquo;, <em>The West Australian</em>, 6 November 1937 Subject The topic of the resource Accolade, authority, ceremony, chivalry, dubbing, Governor-General, honours, investiture, King’s Coronation Honours, knight, knighthood, letters patent, Lord Gowrie, pageantry, Parliament House, sword. Description An account of the resource This article from <em>The West Australian</em> in 1937 reports on a number of new knighthoods awarded as part of the King&rsquo;s Coronation Honours. For the first time, the article informs readers, the recipients were &lsquo;dubbed&rsquo; by the Governor-General, Lord Gowrie, at Parliament House during a &lsquo;ceremony of medieval pageantry&rsquo;. The ceremony was undertaken with the permission of the King, who was traditionally the only figure with the authority to confer honours with a sword. The act of dubbing involves a light blow to the shoulders of a kneeling recipient with the flat side of a sword. Dubbing is an essential part of the public investiture ceremony and dates to the medieval period.

Title A name given to the resource Medievalism on the Page Description An account of the resource This Collection examines literary medievalism from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. 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. In this Collection you will find items relating to printed medievalist works and also to medievalism operating in print, for example in references to medieval events, people, and literature in nineteenth- and twentieth-century texts and dramatic works. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps.

Title A name given to the resource ‘The Australian Jubilee Peerage: A Detailed Scheme for the Institution of Various Long-Needed Australian Orders of Nobility’, The Bulletin, 25 June 1887 Subject The topic of the resource ‘pedigree hunting,’ Australian politics, Britain, heraldry, honours, Jubilee, knight, knighthood, Livingston York Hopkins (1846-1927), Melbourne, nobility, peerage, politics, political figures, Queen Victoria, social mobility, Victoria, VIC, White Knight of Kerry Description An account of the resource This full-page illustration by the Bulletin’s American-born cartoonist Livingston Hopkins (aka ‘Hop’), pokes fun at some of Australia’s prominent political figures. The 25 June 1887 issue of the Bulletin reviewed Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee, and Hop’s cartoon “lampooned the jubilee peerages that had been bestowed” on the distant British outpost (Louise D'Arcens, Old Songs in the Timeless Land: Medievalism in Australian Literature 1840-1910, Turnhout: Brepols, 2011, p.21). It seems that Australians from all backgrounds and social milieu desired these honours from the British monarch: a search for long-forgotten (aka ‘illustrious’) forbears was relentlessly pursued by public figures, and the claiming of heraldic devices (if obtainable) was de rigueur. As a result, Burke’s Peerage was forced to devote two volumes in 1891 and 1895 to “Colonial Gentry” (D'Arcens, p.24). Hop’s cartoon offered Bulletin readers a tongue-in-cheek selection of new honours, including ‘The Order of P.G.’ to be “conferred only upon the old and true colonial aristocracy” (Bulletin,p .18). “P.G.” is a reference to “the convict inmates of Pinchgut, the notoriously punitive prison-island in Sydney Cove (better known today as Fort Denison)”. It also serves as a timely reminder to those with ‘blinkered’ memories “of the decidedly ignoble origins” of many of the Colony’s original European settlers (D’Arcens, p.23).
