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.

The most difficult task being undertaken as part of this redecoration, according to the author, was the gilding of the gold ball surmounting the dome. To complete this, painters had been swung 300 feet above ground level. The dome of the Royal Exhibition Building was modelled on Brunelleschi’s fifteenth-century design for the dome of the Florence Cathedral. About the Royal Exhibition Building: The Royal Exhibition Building was designed by architect Joseph Reed and completed in 1880. It hosted two major world fairs in the late nineteenth century: the Melbourne International Exhibition in 1880 and the Melbourne Centennial International Exhibition in 1888. The Great Hall was also used for the opening of the first Commonwealth Parliament of Australia in 1901. The round-arched architectural style of the design combines elements from Byzantine, Romanesque, Lombardic and Italian Renaissance buildings (‘Rundbogenstil’). Conservation and restoration of the building was completed in 1994, and the Royal Exhibition Building received National and World Heritage listing in 2004.

As late as the early fifteenth century, regular livery awards at Christmas or Easter or livery rewards for good service were still part of the King’s rituals towards his retainers or, in the case of the hybrid wage system around 1400, his government clerks.

The article begins by describing the medieval tradition of ‘a-maying’ and merrymaking on the first day of the month: ‘May day’. This involved processions and dancing, often around a maypole. Maypoles, the author goes on to explain, were viewed as especially objectionable by the Puritans in the seventeenth century, and banned by Parliament between 1644 and 1660. The article concludes by suggesting that the name ‘may’ was most likely Roman in origin - after Maia, the mother of Mercury. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.
