Description An account of the resource Arthur! And the Square Knights of the Round Table was an animated Australian cartoon series written by Melbourne playwright Alex Buzo with Rod Hull, Lyle Martin, John Palmer and M. Robinson. It was produced between 1966 and 1968. Based on Arthurian legend, the cartoons feature characters such as King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, a Black Knight and Morgan le Fay. The opening jingle (available at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7O7NgjWPeM" target="_self">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7O7NgjWPeM</a>) provides a good overview of the Arthurian themes and motifs in the cartoons, in verse! For example, the pastimes of the hero Arthur – ‘the king of Camelot, who likes to joust a lot’ – are identified as jousting, dragon-slaying, wooing Guinevere, foiling the evil plans of the Black Knight, rescuing damsels in distress, drawing swords from stones, making tables round, and convening meetings of his bravest knights.

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. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps. Recommended best practice is to assign the type "text" to images of textual materials.

Title A name given to the resource ‘The Old Squire’, The Bulletin, 28 May 1908 Subject The topic of the resource â€˜As it is in the Days of Now,â€™ Black Death, conquest, despotism, famine, Henry Lawson (1867-1922), honour, ingratitude, justice, king, knight, knighthood, loyalty, neglect, noble, pestilence, plague, Old Swithin, rescue, service, sickness, siege, Sir William, squire, Swithin, sword, Virland (Old Estonia). Description An account of the resource The Bulletin, which was resolutely “anti-imperialist” in its outlook, published a range of verses, ballads and other “poems in which the Middle Ages were represented as despotic and barbaric” (Louise D’Arcens, Old Songs in the Timeless Land: Medievalism in Australian Literature 1840-1910, Turnhout, Brepols, 2011, p.143). While ‘The Old Squire’ doesn’t do this explicitly, it is undeniably a “tale of faithful service unrewarded” (D’Arcens, p.144). Here we again follow the adventures of Sir William, Henry Lawson’s cuckolded knight from ‘As it is in the Days of Now’ (See <a href="http://ausmed.arts.uwa.edu.au/items/show/1020" target="_self">http://ausmed.arts.uwa.edu.au/items/show/1020</a>). Sir William, his squire, the King and the narrator ride into Virland with the intention of conquering the City, only to find the inhabitants suffering in the throes of the Black Death. Sir William is portrayed in the poem as arrogant and thoughtless for failing to appreciate the longstanding and faithful service of his squire, Old Swithin. After dutifully clearing out the dead from the City, Swithin collapses after trying to rescue a child from plague infested quarters. He is portrayed as noble in character but, unjustly, not in name; instead, ‘His heart was ever pained, / because of that old knighthood / that he should once have gained’. When his worth is finally recognised and the King attempts to knight him at the end of the poem, it is too late for he is already dead. While not an outright attack on all authority, this poem “implicitly condemns aristocratic arrogance and the [...] inequity of the feudal system” (D’Arcens, p.144).
