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 SA Register 1888 Thurs 26 April Carnival of King Labour Subject The topic of the resource King Labour, Eight Hours Day celebration Melbourne, tinsmithsâ€™ armour, trade processions, streets celebrations, medieval guilds, references to Ivanhoe, Richard Coeur de Lion, Don Quixote, battle-axes, Friendly Societiesâ€™ Gardens, carnival, carnivalesque, labour, worker, work, labourer, class Description An account of the resource Report on the Eight Hours Day procession in Melbourne in 1888. The article describes the vivid and essentially working-class flavour of the skilled trades procession and after-picnic in Melbourne. The tinsmithsâ€™ knightly armour invokes literary and historical figures of the past. The novel Ivanhoe was set in the twelfth century but was written by Sir Walter Scott in the early nineteenth century; Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes is a seventeenth-century novel. Richard the Lionheart or Richard I of England was a twelfth-century warrior king. The authorâ€™s idea about what constitutes â€˜the medievalâ€™ is heavily mediated by popular fictions and depictions of their time.

The statue, which depicts St George astride his horse, armed with a large spear and inflicting the death blow on a “very substantial reptile, neither a griffon nor a wyvern, but partaking strongly of the nature of an iguana”, was displayed in the Great Hall during the 1888 International Exhibition in Melbourne. The article’s praise for this work stands in contradiction to former criticisms of the sculpture from the likes of Edmund Grosse for lacking ‘largeness’ and for being overly poetic and idealised (See Andrew Lynch, “‘Thingless names’? The St George Legend in Australia”, The La Trobe Journal, vol.81, Autumn 2008, pp.40-52: <a href="http://www3.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-81/t1-g-t4.html" target="_blank">http://www3.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-81/t1-g-t4.html</a>). The author of the article suggests that although “strict probabilities” had not been observed, the sculpture was to be commended for its aesthetically pleasing depiction of a combat between good and evil. Boehm’s statue of St George and the Dragon was purchased by the State Library of Victoria for the sum of £1000 following the Exhibition. It was installed at the entrance to the library in 1889 where, after some slight repositioning to accommodate Frémiet’s Jeanne d’Arc in 1907, it still stands.

Subject The topic of the resource bronze, Centennial International Exhibition, chivalric tradition, crusades, dragon, exhibition, Golden Legend, hagiography, international exhibition, Jacobus de Voragine, knight, legend, Melbourne, mythology, sculpture, Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm (1834-1890), spear, Speculum Historiale, St George, Saint George, St George and the Dragon sculpture, State Library of Victoria, statue, sword, Victoria, Vincent of Beauvais (c.1190-1264) Description An account of the resource Images of the St George and the Dragon bronze statue at the entrance to the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne. The statue is the work of Viennese-born sculptor Joseph Edgar Boehm. It was purchased by the State Library of Victoria for the sum of £1000 following the Centennial International Exhibition in 1888, and was installed at the entrance to the library in 1889. With the exception of some repositioning to accommodate Frémiet’s Jeanne d’Arc statue in 1907, this is where it still stands. The Boehm statue depicts St George, sitting astride his horse wearing a cape and a helmet bearing the distinctive St George cross, in the action of inflicting the dragon’s deathblow by means of a large spear. The legend of St George slaying the dragon is Eastern in origin. It is thought to have been brought back to England by crusaders and was popularised and incorporated into hagiographies of St George in the medieval period in works such as Vincent of Beauvais’ Speculum Historiale and Jacobus de Voragine’s Golden Legend (c.1260). As with most early Australian images of St George and the Dragon, the statue features the knight and dragon fused in combat, and there is no sign of the maiden who was being saved in the original tale.

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 Brunelleschiâ€™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 (â€˜Rundbogenstilâ€™). Conservation and restoration of the building was completed in 1994, and the Royal Exhibition Building received National and World Heritage listing in 2004.
