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.

Description
An account of the resource
A view of the tall campanile tower at St Michael’s Uniting Church in Collin’s Street, central Melbourne. St Michael’s Uniting Church was designed by architectural firm Reed and Barnes in a Victorian Romanesque style. The style has more specifically been described as ‘Lombardic Romanesque’ on account of the polychrome brickwork and campanile style tower pictured here (See, for example, the Victorian Heritage Register: <a href="http://vhd.heritage.vic.gov.au/#detail_places;721">http://vhd.heritage.vic.gov.au/#detail_places;721</a>). The polychrome pattern is unusual for a neo-romanesque building, as it was more often found in buildings of gothic design. The church was constructed by John Young between 1866 and 1867, and was originally named The Independent Church. It was renamed in 1977.
