                  <text>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 childrenâ€™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.</text>

                <text>This article from &lt;em&gt;The Register&lt;/em&gt; in 1915 traces the origins of Mothers&amp;rsquo; Day celebrations to the medieval period, when adolescent children would be afforded a holiday from work on the fourth Sunday in Lent to &amp;lsquo;go a-mothering&amp;rsquo;. On such occasions, the article explains, family members would assemble and pay homage to mothers by presenting gifts, and a general air of festivity ensued with special Church services and prayers containing more than usual reference to family life. While some elements of the festivities were not adopted in Australia, the article continues, the observance of mothers day is regularly marked by the wearing of white flowers, and by annual festivals such as the one conducted at the Young Women&amp;rsquo;s Christian Association headquarters in Adelaide.</text>
