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.

Title A name given to the resource Pigeon Tower, near Cressy, Tasmania Subject The topic of the resource Joseph Archer, arrow slits, blind windows, Burlington Farming Pty Ltd, crenellation, Cressy, dovecote, folly, Panshanger Estate, parapet, pigeon tower, William Charles Piguenit, Tas, Tasmania, tower. Description An account of the resource <p>This pigeon tower, or dovecote, is located on the banks of Macquarie River on a property owned by Burlington Farming Pty Ltd near the northern Tasmanian town of Cressy. The tower was originally part of the adjoining Panshanger Estate and was built in the 1830s under the directions of the original owner Joseph Archer (1795-1853). The building is approximately fifteen metres high and provided pigeons and chickens for the Estate. A cottage for the tower keeper originally stood nearby. Despite its intended function, the circular tower has the appearance of a fortified medieval tower featuring a crenelated parapet, blind semi-circular arched windows, and the openings for the pigeons have the external appearance of arrow slits. The attractive tower was in part made to be viewed from the Archer home, and it features in paintings by William Charles Piguenit (1836-1914). It is still intact, including brick fowl nesting boxes on the ground floor, and the timber floors and ceiling have recently been restored.</p> <p>For a 1949 article discussing the tower see <a href="http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article26636364">http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article26636364</a></p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource McLeod, Shane Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource August 4, 2012 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource By permission of Burlington Farming Pty Ltd arrow slits blind windows Burlington Farming Pty Ltd crenellation Cressy dovecote folly Joseph Archer Panshanger Estate parapet pigeon tower Tas Tasmania tower.
