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 childrenâ€™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.

Title A name given to the resource Alfred the Great Subject The topic of the resource Alfred of Wessex, Alfred the Great, Anglo-Saxon, Broadford, The Broadford Courier and Reedy Creek Times, England, entail, law, primogeniture, VIC, Victoria, Wessex, wills Description An account of the resource An article on page 5 of the regional Victorian newspaper The Broadford Courier and Reedy Creek Times on June 20, 1902. The anonymous article is about the will of Alfred the Great, king of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Wessex in southern England. In particular it claims that Alfred is ‘the author of the law of entail in England’ as one of the clauses of his will stipulated that certain of the lands he had granted to his men (bookland) had to be passed on to their male children. If the men do not have children they are to pass the land back to members of Alfred’s family.     Alfred’s will can be found in translation in Simon Keynes & Michael Lapidge, eds., Alfred the Great: Asser’s Life of Alfred and Other Contemporary Sources (Penguin, London, 1983), pp. 173-8.

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.

Beginning with reference to Thomas Paineâ€™s denunciation of hereditary monarchy and the religious bias of the 1701 Act of Settlement which prevents non-Protestant heirs from succeeding to the British throne, Robertson suggests that Australiaâ€™s enduring penchant for royal tradition is what keeps it part of the commonwealth. He goes on to cite examples of what he refers to as â€˜medieval nonsenseâ€™ that â€˜still applies in Australiaâ€™, including the feudal principle of primogeniture, the 1351 Treason Act and obsolete but unrepealed laws such as one that vests the ownership of wild swans with the monarch.
