Title A name given to the resource Medievalism on the Streets Description An account of the resource This Collection analyses popular medievalism in material and public culture from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, with an emphasis on popular medievalist theatre, parades and public spectacles, as well as recreational, literary and political associations. It explores the ways in which medievalism was not simply derivative but also local and disctinctive. In this Collection you will find items relating to medievalism in public contexts and popular culture, and the revisitation or reenactment of the Middle Ages by groups such as the Society for Creative Anachronism.

Title A name given to the resource Raven banner, Balingup Medieval Carnivale Subject The topic of the resource Balingup, Balingup Medieval Carnivale, banner, carnival, Knut, Norse, recreation, raven, raven banner, Shire of Donnybrook-Balingup, South-West WA, Viking, WA, Western Australia Description An account of the resource A photograph of a raven banner at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale. A raven banner is mentioned in a (late) version of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle reporting on a battle in 878 between an invading Viking group and the men of Devon. The latter defeated the invaders and are said to have captured their raven banner. The Saga of the Earls of Orkney reports that a raven banner was made for Sigurd the Stout/Great, and Knut is thought to have had one at the Battle of Ashingdon in 1016. The raven is possibly associated with the Norse god Odin, but it is equally likely that a carrion bird is thought to have been an appropriate battle symbol. The raven on the banner in the photograph is based on the raven featured on the coins of Anlaf Guthfrithsson, the Viking king who ruled from York from 939-41.

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.

Prout Subject The topic of the resource Alfred the Great, Alswitha, Anglo-Saxon, Athelney, Battle of Ethandun, cantata, Danes, Ealhswith, England, Mr Grist, Guthrum, libretto, minstrel, music, New South Wales, Norse, NSW, performance, Ebenezer Prout, Raven banner, Redfern, Saxon, St. Paulâ€™s, Sydney, The Sydney Morning Herald, Thor, Valhalla, Viking, Wessex, Y.M.C.A. Description An account of the resource This anonymous article in The Sydney Morning Herald on 30 November 1886 is a review of a musical performance about Alfred the Great. The cantata ‘Alfred’ was composed by Ebenezer Prout with a libretto by Mr Grist. The piece is based around Alfred’s battle with the Viking great army and its leader Guthrum in 878 and opens with Alfred at Athelney, where he had been forced to take refuge with his wife Alswitha (Ealhswith) and men following a Viking attack on the royal estate at Chippenham. Alfred eventually enters the Viking camp disguised as a minstrel where he enters a singing competition with Guthrum, which he wins. During the competition Guthrum sings about the Norse god Thor and Alfred a song of love. Alfred and his men later defeat the Vikings at the battle of Ethandun and Guthrum and his followers become Christians. The performance was given to raise money for a new organ at St Paul’s, Redfern, and took place at the Y.M.C.A. The article can be found at <a href="http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28351939" target="_blank">http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28351939</a> The cantata is based on contemporary accounts about Alfred found in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and Asser’s Life of Alfred, but the story of him disguising himself as a minstrel to spy on the Viking camp is not found in these sources. It became a very popular tale in the nineteenth century, being the subject of various illustrations and mentioned in works of history.
