An account of the resource
<p>The Kingdom of Lochac is the name used by members of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) for a fictional kingdom comprising Australia, New Zealand and their Antarctic territories. Lochac is one of nineteen kingdoms worldwide. Australia itself is divided into a number of large Barony’s, within which are smaller shires and cantons. Every Australian state and territory other than the Northern Territory has a resident SCA group. Members of the group research and recreate aspects of pre-17<sup>th</sup> century European culture, including archery, calligraphy, costume, cooking, dance, heraldry, illumination, martial arts, metalwork, and music. Various events are held throughout the year and Lochac has its own king, queen, and office bearers.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
A woman demonstrating the medieval art of manuscript illumination at the Perth Medieval Fayre. ‘Illumination’ refers to the addition of decorations and illustrations around the text on a manuscript page. These illuminations formed an integral part of medieval manuscripts, and served a number of functions. More than mere marginalia, they supplemented the written text on the page by adding additional comment or detail, stimulated the reader, and conveyed a sense of the work’s value. They could also be used to personalise manuscripts and to communicate ideas and traits about individuals, for example the piety of the owner or gratitude and deference towards a patron.
The Perth Medieval Fayre is organised and run by the Western Australian Medieval Alliance. In 2011 it was held at Supreme Court Gardens on 19 March. Enthusiasts and vendors showcased a range of medieval arts and crafts, from dancing, calligraphy and lace-making to demonstrations of the techniques, weaponry and apparel of medieval combat.

Medievalism on the Page
Description
An account of the resource
This Collection examines literary medievalism from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. It traces an arc from the populist literary medievalism of the nineteenth century, through the more rarefied modernist turn of the mid-twentieth century, to the re-emergence of popular forms such as children’s literature and fantasy since the 1980s. In this Collection you will find items relating to printed medievalist works and also to medievalism operating in print, for example in references to medieval events, people, and literature in nineteenth- and twentieth-century texts and dramatic works.

Description
An account of the resource
The trend in medievalist revivals in all aspects of colonial life included medieval illumination found in addresses, books, presentation certificates or albums. These pieces of carefully crafted work, sometimes on precious vellum, marked special occasions such as retirement, welcomes, congratulations and condolences. Valda Rigg (see Bibliography below) notes the use of chivalric language in these manifestoes. Each address portrayed unique iconography pertinent to its recipient. The addresses are visual insignia or historical keepsakes showing relevant landscapes and/or labour tools and Australian flowers. The Powerhouse Museum has an extensive collection of ‘Illuminated Addresses’. Jesse Grigson’s are but two examples of this genre.

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
<p>An image of the Royal Exhibition Building lit up at night during the Centennial International Exhibition in 1888, from the Illustrated Australian News. The Royal Exhibition Building was designed by architect Joseph Reed and completed in 1880. The round-arched architectural style of the design combines elements from Byzantine, Romanesque, Lombardic and Italian Renaissance buildings (‘Rundbogenstil’). The dome specifically was modelled on Brunelleschi’s fifteenth-century design for the dome of the Florence Cathedral. Conservation and restoration of the building was completed in 1994, and the Royal Exhibition Building received National and World Heritage listing in 2004.</p>
<p><br /> The Royal Exhibition Building hosted two major world fairs in the late nineteenth century: the Melbourne International Exhibition in 1880 (for which purpose it was constructed), and then the Melbourne Centennial International Exhibition in 1888. Electric light was installed in the Building in 1888, which enabled visitors to attend the Exhibition at night for the first time. The Great Hall was also used for the opening of the first Commonwealth Parliament of Australia in 1901. For more about the Royal Exhibition Building, including a virtual tour inside the building, see the Museum Victoria Royal Exhibition Building website: <a href="http://museumvictoria.com.au/reb/" target="_blank">http://museumvictoria.com.au/reb/</a></p>

In recognition of his services as chairman of the above association from February 9th 1906 to August 8th 1906†and is signed by the serving Chairman and Secretary.
