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 article includes a photograph of the recreated Viking ship the Ormen Friske, and a short report on her arrival in Stockholm for the World Sport Exhibition.

Title A name given to the resource Viking Galley Off UK Subject The topic of the resource Anglo-Saxon, anniversary, England, Examiner, Denmark, galley, Hugin, Kent, Launceston, recreation, replica, spears, swords, TAS, Tasmania, Viking, vikings Description An account of the resource A newspaper article on the front page of the Launceston newspaper Examiner on 26 July, 1949. The article reports on the voyage of the replica galley ‘Hugin’ from Denmark on its journey to Broadstairs in Kent, England. The Hugin had a crew of fifty-two bearded oarsmen and their swords and spears were checked by UK customs at sea. Although described as a Viking vessel, the voyage was actually to celebrate the 1500th anniversary of the arrival, as dated by Bede, of the Anglo-Saxon brothers Hengist and Hosra and their followers in 449. The origins of ‘England’ (the land of the Angels) are often traced to this event, whereas the first reported Viking raid did not occur until the late eighth century.
