                  <text>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.</text>

However the included photograph shows that the dress has little similarity to actual dresses from the medieval period. The comment is probably about the corset/bustier-style top.  </text>

                  <text>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.</text>

                <text>An online article on June 18, 2011, by Jennifer Witham based on comments that AFL commentator Leigh Matthews made on-air at the Melbourne radio station 3AW. Matthews described the pay claims of the players against the AFL as the â€˜serfs fighting backâ€™, and the article proceeds to explain that â€˜serfsâ€™ is a medieval term used to describe the lowest feudal class.</text>
