The crest features an open book bearing the motto 'Dominus illuminatio mea' , with two crowns above the book and one below. The top of the shield has a semi-circular section soldered to it, to which is attached a black painted metal inverted 'V', folded over a metal ring, which allows it to be displayed on a wall. <cite>Permalink: <a href="http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL39640" target="_blank">http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL39641</a></cite> Summary from Australian War Memorial website: This object was collected from Charles Bean's study at his home 'Clifton' in Collaroy, NSW. Bean is perhaps best remembered for the official histories of Australia in the First World War, of which he wrote six volumes and edited the remainder. Before this, however, he was Australia's official correspondent to the war. He was also the driving force behind the establishment of the Australian War Memorial. Charles Edwin Woodrow Bean was born on 18 November 1879 at Bathurst, New South Wales. His family moved to England when he was ten. He completed his education there, eventually studying classics and law at Oxford. Bean returned to Australia in 1904 and was admitted to the New South Wales Bar. Having dabbled in journalism, Bean joined the Sydney Morning Herald as a junior reporter in January 1908. He published several books before being posted to London in 1910. In 1913 he returned to Sydney as the Herald's leader writer. When the First World War began, Bean won an Australian Journalists Association ballot and became official correspondent to the AIF. He accompanied the first convoy to Egypt, landed at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915 and began to make his name as a tireless, thorough and brave correspondent. He was wounded in August but remained on Gallipoli for most of the campaign, leaving just a few days before the last troops. He then reported on the Australians on the Western Front where his admiration of the AIF crystallised into a desire to create a permanent memorial to their sacrifice and achievements. In addition to his journalism, Bean filled hundreds of diaries and notebooks, all with a view to writing a history of the AIF when the war ended. In addition he organised the collection of battlefield relics from AIF soldiers on the Western Front through the formation of the Australian War Records Section. In early 1919 he led a historical mission to Gallipoli to collect relics for the Memorial, obtain Turkish accounts of the campaign and report on the condition of war graves. On his return to Australia Bean and his staff moved into Tuggeranong homestead, south of Canberra, to work on the official history. In 1921 he married Ethel (Effie) Young, a nursing sister at the Queanbeyan hospital whom he first met when she visited Tuggeranong to play tennis. They later moved to Sydney, where he continued to write at Victoria Barracks. When he began, Bean imagined that the history would take five years to write; in the event it took 23 years, and the final volume did not appear until 1942. Besides his written work, Bean worked tirelessly on creating the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. He was present when the building opened on 11 November 1941 and became Chairman of the Memorial's board in 1952. He maintained a close association with the institution for the rest of his life. During the Second World War, Bean liaised between the Chiefs of Staff and the press for the Department of Information. He became Chairman of the Commonwealth Archives Committee and was instrumental in creating the Commonwealth Archives. Between 1947 and 1958 he was Chairman of the Promotion Appeals Board of the Australian Broadcasting Commission. He also continued to write, producing a history of Australia's independent schools and finally a book on two senior AIF figures, Sir William Throsby Bridges and Sir Cyril Brudnell Bingham White. Bean received a number of honorary degrees and declined a knighthood. Bean, one of the most admired Australians of his generation, died after a long illness in Concord Repatriation Hospital in 1968. Much of the material from Bean's study was originally housed in his Tuggeranong Homestead office where he began writing the official histories. When the family moved it was transferred to his homes in Sydney. Effie continued to use the study after her husband's death. The study was dismantled after her death in July 1991 and transferred to the Australian War Memorial.  <a href="http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL39640" target="_blank">http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL39640</a> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.

Title A name given to the resource General Sir John Monash - Gold Signet Ring Subject The topic of the resource Sir John Monash, knighthood, First World War, World War I, World War, WW1, personal jewellery, Orders of Knighthood, knight, knighthood, ring, rings, jewellery, insignia, heraldry, latin motto, 'marte et arte', lion rampant, compass, seal ring, privy seal Description An account of the resource Signet ring made from 18 carat gold. The face of the ring is impressed with a lion rampant holding a compass. In a scroll below is the latin motto 'MARTE ET ARTE' [By war and arts]. These words are impressed in the reverse to enable the ring to be used as a seal. The inner band of the ring is stamped with a maker's mark and the carat. John Monash GCMG, KCB (1865-1931) was born in West Melbourne and died in 1931 in Melbourne. Of Prussian Jewish heritage, he participated in the landing at Anzac Cover Gallipoli and assumed command of the Australian Corps in May 1918. He was a key strategist in the campaigns in France and served and commanded troops in Gallipoli. Entry on Australian War Memorial website: 'John Monash was born in Melbourne on 27 June 1865. He was dux of Scotch College and studied arts and engineering at Melbourne University, where he was also involved in debating and student politics. Outside of university he dabbled in acting. In 1884 he joined the university company of the 4th Battalion, Victorian Rifles. Monash worked on the construction of the Princes Bridge in Melbourne and in 1888 was placed in charge of constructing a new railway even though he had yet to complete his degree. Monash married Hannah Moss in April 1891. He finished his studies in 1895 and, having decided to combine engineering with a military career, was promoted to captain in the Garrison Artillery that year. In 1897 Monash was promoted to major in the North Melbourne Battery and served there for 11 years. Meanwhile, he and a friend had established a private engineering practice in 1894. The business grew steadily but a series of setbacks left him with large debts in 1902. Starting again, Monash recovered and became wealthy. He also gained promotion to lieutenant colonel in the Australian Intelligence Corps in 1908. Now prospering in business and the Army, in 1913 Colonel Monash took command of the 13th Infantry Brigade. After the outbreak of war, Monash took command of the AIF's 4th Infantry Brigade, landing at Gallipoli on 26 April 1915. In July he was promoted to brigadier. Monash took his brigade to France in June 1916. He became a major general in July and took command of the 3rd Division. The division's first major battle, Messines, was hailed as a great success. Further success followed and in May 1918, Monash was promoted to lieutenant general and given command of the Australian Corps. His first battle in this role, Hamel, came to be considered the 'perfect battle'. Monash remained in command through the victorious battles in the last months of the war. After spending eight months in London overseeing the repatriation of the AIF, Monash was welcomed home in Melbourne by an enthusiastic public on Boxing Day 1919. He returned to business and in 1920 became manager of Victoria's State Electricity Commission. An advocate for returned soldiers, Monash also held a range of high-level positions. His opinions were widely sought and he became a leading figure in Melbourne's Jewish community. Monash was promoted to general in November 1929. He died of heart disease in Melbourne on 8 October 1931 and was given a state funeral attended by some 250,000 mourners.

Urry, shield, armourer, aluminium, Turkey, Anzac Cove, Western Front, coat-of arms Description An account of the resource REL/00793 Front and reverse Entry on Australian War Memorial website: Small aluminium shield. Engraved on the obverse is, '528 PRIVATE C E URRY 25TH APRIL GALLIPOLI HMS SCOURGE 5TH JUNE GERMAN OFFICERS TRENCH 6TH AUGUST LONE PINE EVACUATED 20TH DEC 19TH APRIL LAVENTIE 28TH MARCH FRANCE'. Engraved on the reverse is, '526 C E URRY 6TH AUGUST LONE PINE DARDENELLES'. Summary: Associated with the service of Private Charles Edward Urry, 1 Battalion, AIF. Born in 1897 in Sydney, Charles Urry was nineteen years old and working as a carpenter when he enlisted in the AIF on 17 August 1914. At the time he was also a member of the Militia (33 Infantry Regiment). 526 Private C E Urry embarked aboard HMAT Afric from Sydney on 18 October 1914 with 1 Battalion B Company . After seeing action on Gallipoli and at the Somme, Private Urry was killed in action near Ypres, Belgium on 11 September 1916. This shield was carried by Private Urry during his service. It is believed that just prior to embarkation in Australia, several B Company men had these shields made up by the Battalion armourer. Each soldier engraved his service number and name into the shield and added 'battle honours' as the war progressed. The shield was sent to his mother after his death, as part of his personal effects. Private Urry's brother, 6169 Private Alfred Thomas Urry served with 19 Battalion, AIF during the war. He returned to Australia in 1919.  <cite>Permalink: <a href="http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL39640" target="_blank">http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/REL/00793</a></cite> <cite> This poignant unofficial insignia of war indicates both a sense of identity amongst B company and a 'coat-of-arms' for lower-ranked soldiers: a working man's heraldic shield, if you will. The company conscripted their armourer to make these aluminium badges to be taken on campaign. Urry engraved his with combat locations and dates, as well as 'german officers', 'HMS Scourge', 'evacuated'. They sit in striking contrast to the glorious, gold, sophisticated badges of the company commanders. See General Sir John Monash, for example.

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 â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™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.

Title A name given to the resource Stained Glass, Wesley Church, Perth, Western Australia Subject The topic of the resource Armour, castle, church, crenellation, crown, dragon, Gothic, Richard Roach Jewell, lancet windows, memorial, Methodist, Perth, St George, shield, stained glass, sword, tracery, WA, war, Wesley Church, Western Australia, World War I. Description An account of the resource These interior photographs of Wesley Church show some of the stained glass windows. The window featuring a warrior in full armour and wearing a crown is particularly inspired by the medieval era. The warrior, St George, carries a sword and shield with a cross motif, and the head of a dead dragon lies at his feet. Below them is a castle featuring crenellation. The window is a memorial for someone killed in action in France during World War I, which makes the depiction of a warrior saint an appropriate image. Wesley Church in the central Perth CBD was designed in the Gothic style by Richard Roach Jewell for the local Methodist congregation and it opened in 1870.

Subject The topic of the resource Adelaide, armor, armour, bravery, cathedral, chivalric, chivalry, commemoration, courage, cross, Crusades, gallantry, Great War, halo, honour, knight, lance, medieval iconography, memorial, mosaic, noble cause, saints, SA, shield, soldier, South Australia, St George cross, St Peterâ€™s Cathedral, sword, virtue, warrior, World War I, WWI, St. Peter, Saint Peter, St Peter Description An account of the resource An image of a Great War Memorial Cross situated in the grounds of St Peterâ€™s Cathedral in Adelaide, South Australia. The colourful mosaic in the centre of the cross 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 figureâ€™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.
