Subject The topic of the resource Cartoon, Fluellen, Henry V, John Bull, medieval costume, Pistol, political cartoon, politics, Shakespeare, Sir George Richard Dibbs (1834-1904), Sir Robert William Duff (1835-1895), theatre, New South Wales, NSW politics, William Ewart Gladstone (1809-1898), William Shakespeare (c.1564-1616). Description An account of the resource This political cartoon by ‘Hop’ enacts a scene from William Shakespeare’s historical play, Henry V. In the scene, Fluellen the Welshman angrily berates the unfortunate Pistol, a crony of Sir John Falstaff, and forces him to eat a raw leek. The cartoon, Louise D’Arcens suggests, uses this rather cryptic information “to depict the recent appointment of the New South Wales governor Sir Robert Duff by the British Prime Minister Gladstone,” (Louise D’Arcens, Old Songs in the Timeless Land: Medievalism in Australian Literature 1840-1910, Turnhout, Brepols, 2011, p.182). The ‘leeks’ both seem equally unpalatable to the protesting recipient(s): Pistol and the Premier Sir George Dibbs respectively. The fact that Mr Gladstone and Her Majesty’s Government would appoint the next Governor without approval from the NSW Government indicates the lesson in humility that was forced upon the colony by Whitehall. Ironically, the John Bull figure holds a switch with the words ‘Silken Bond’ written upon it. This sounds suspiciously like “an iron fist in a velvet glove” rationale to contemporary ears.

Scene X)’, The Bulletin, 8 December 1894. Subject The topic of the resource Alexander Iden, doggerel, Henry VI Part II, Jack Cade, John Bull, Kent, London, poetry, political commentary, rebellion, revolt, roast beef, verse, Victor J. Daley (1858-1905), William Shakespeare (c.1564-1616). Description An account of the resource Victor Daley was an Irishman who came to Australia as a young man. He wrote romantic verse and was referred to by Vivian Smith as, “one of the most attractive poets of the nineties in Australia” (Vivian Smith, ‘Poetry’, The Oxford History of Australian Literature, ed. by Leonie Kramer, Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1981, p.319). He also wrote under the pen-name Creeve Roe (trans. ‘Red Branch’), which conjures the image of a “Celtic bard singing ancient songs” in an unmistakably Antipodean context (Louise D’Arcens, Old Songs in the Timeless Land: Medievalism in Australian Literature 1840-1910, Turnhout, Brepols, 2011, p.124). In this period poem, Daley praises the memory of Jack Cade, a Kentish rebel leader who died in 1450. The poem critiques Shakespeare’s treatment of Cade in Henry VI, Part II. Daley’s objective seems to be setting the record straight and praising Jack Cade for his courage. He also seeks to summon local resistance to social values that he thinks have no place in an Australian bush setting. Addressing the English Bard directly he states, “I think thy mediaeval / social views suit not this clime.” The denouement, which involves a fight between the well-nourished Kentish squire Alexander Iden and the near-starving disconsolate rebel Cade, produces imagery of John Bull, over-stuffed with English beef, taking-on those who are ill-prepared for resistance. It is a decidedly one-sided encounter, and the outcome – Cade’s death – is never seriously in doubt. The rationale for condemnation is that the likes of Alexander Iden, depicted “Gasconading in his garden,” frequently attract undeserved honours and knighthoods, while the impoverished people (Jack Cade among them) fare ignominiously. The poem closes after encouraging the downtrodden to take their lead from Cade, and concludes with a toast to the memory of his brave deeds.
