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 ‘Rivals’, The Bulletin, 14 July 1900 Subject The topic of the resource absent lovers, Boer War, chivalry, courtly love, Creeve Roe, favour, gift, heroism, Isabel, knight, maiden, marriage, romance, Sir Comfort, Sir Valour, soldier, valour, veldt, Victor Daley (1858-1905). Description An account of the resource ‘Rivals’ is an interesting attempt by medievalist writer Victor Daley to transform what must have been a fairly commonplace incident at that time into something more than it seems. The poem describes a young man, Sir Valour, taking leave of his sweetheart (“My Lady Fair”), and going off to fight in the Boer War. The leave-taking is transformed into a medieval tale, a deliberately romantic historicization of the present (Louise D’Arcens, Old Songs in the Timeless Land: Medievalism in Australian Literature 1840-1910, Turnhout, Brepols, 2011, p.110), whereby the couple pledge true love and the lady presents him with a token of her favour, before he sets out for foreign lands. In her knight’s protracted absence, Sir Comfort, an older and much wealthier man, slyly wins the favours of “Sweet Isabel,” and marries her. This turnaround is presumably hastened by the giving of a number of beautiful and very costly items: “Some simple rubies, strings of pearls / And diamonds for [her] hair.” Here Creeve Roe contrasts the stark unpleasant realities of the war with quasi-medieval ‘courtly’ values. The final scene, when the young man dies “in lands remote,” with Isabel’s name upon his lips, is one of shattered dreams and misplaced expectations.

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.

Title A name given to the resource â€˜St Georgeâ€™ Stained Glass Window, Tolarno Hotel, St Kilda Subject The topic of the resource armour, armor, border, dragon, Ferguson & Urie, knight, Melbourne, rose, Saint George, St. George, St George, saint, saints, St. Kilda, St Kilda, stained glass, staircase, Tolarno Hotel, Tudor rose, Union Jack, valour, VIC, Victoria Description An account of the resource This elaborate staircase window in a converted St Kilda mansion is probably by Ferguson & Urie and dated c.1884. The window depicts a red-cloaked and fully armoured St George standing on the head of a dragon. Images of St George and the Dragon were popular in the nineteenth century, with this appeal being especially aided by Sir Walter Scottâ€™s reawakening of popular notions of chivalry in his writings. The outer border contains red and white Tudor roses interspersed with green leaves on a blue ground, while the solid looking pillars hold small medallion-shaped imprints of the Union Jack. Overall, the window represents a calm â€˜manlyâ€™ Victorian assurance in the face of determined opposition. Such a window can be interpreted as â€œan expansive declaration of the values and â€¦ institutions inherited from Britainâ€ (Beverley Sherry, Australiaâ€™s Historic Stained Glass, Sydney, Murray Child, 1991, p.44). Although little information is available regarding the mansionâ€™s original owner, it is thought that the house was built for someone engaged in local politics. Thus, St George killing the dragon makes an ideal theme for a grand staircase window in a house where integrity and propriety must be readily observable.
