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
Image of the colourful mosaic in the centre of a Great War Memorial Cross situated in the grounds of St Peter’s Cathedral in Adelaide, South Australia. The mosaic depicts a warrior armed with a shield and a lance, and draws on a number of different symbolic references to represent WWI soldiers as courageous, brave and righteous fighters. The tunic and the armour look classical, but the lance, the shield and the halo are distinctively medieval. The shield bearing the St George cross is reminiscent of those carried by knights during the Crusades, while the lance, an instrument used by jousting knights in the High Middle Ages, suggests gallantry, chivalry and honour. The halo encircling the figure’s head is a common iconographic motif in medieval depictions of saints, and the white cloak has likely also been added to symbolise virtue and righteousness.

<p>A close-up of the detailed stonework surrounding a doorway at St Peter’s Cathedral in Adelaide, South Australia. Construction of this Victorian Gothic style Cathedral began in 1869. Its gothic features include lancet arches, blind arcading and decorative stone tracery.</p>
<p>About St Peter’s Cathedral:</p>
<p>St Peter’s is an Anglican Cathedral located in North Adelaide. Plans for the Cathedral, designed by English architect William Butterfield, were brought to South Australia by the first bishop of the Anglican diocese of Adelaide, Augustus Short, in 1848. They were enlarged and implemented by local architect Edward John Woods. The foundation stone of the Cathedral was laid on St Peter’s Day (29 June) in 1869, and building proceeded in five stages. The first section was completed in 1877, when the Cathedral officially opened for services. The nave was completed in 1901, the towers in 1902, the Lady Chapel in 1904 and the front steps in 1911. Restoration work on the Cathedral began in the 1990s.

An account of the resource
<p>A view of St Peter’s Cathedral in Adelaide, South Australia. Construction of this Victorian Gothic style Cathedral began in 1869. The front of the Cathedral is believed to have been modelled on the church of St Jean-Baptiste de Belleville in Paris, while the lower half of the front facade - especially the three large doorways, the rose window and the twin lancet windows on either side - are also strongly reminiscent of Notre Dame in Paris. Other features of the Cathedral’s gothic architecture include the blind arcading and elaborate stone tracery, the solid buttresses and the characteristic twin towers and spires.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p> A close-up image of the rose window on the front facade of St Peter’s Cathedral in Adelaide, South Australia. The front of the Cathedral is believed to have been modelled on the church of St Jean-Baptiste de Belleville in Paris, while the lower half of the facade - especially the three large doorways, the rose window and the twin lancet windows on either side - are also strongly reminiscent of Notre Dame in Paris. Rose windows were popular decorative features of Romanesque and especially Gothic architecture in England and Europe by the thirteenth century.</p>
<p>About St Peter’s Cathedral:</p>
<p>St Peter’s is an Anglican Cathedral located in North Adelaide. Plans for the Victorian Gothic style Cathedral, designed by English architect William Butterfield, were brought to South Australia by the first bishop of the Anglican diocese of Adelaide, Augustus Short, in 1848. They were enlarged and implemented by local architect Edward John Woods. The foundation stone of the Cathedral was laid on St Peter’s Day (29 June) in 1869, and building proceeded in five stages. The first section was completed in 1877, when the Cathedral officially opened for services. The nave was completed in 1901, the towers in 1902, the Lady Chapel in 1904 and the front steps in 1911. Restoration work on the Cathedral began in the 1990s.
