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.

McMahon discusses a visit to Rothenburg in 1936, which he describes as “the finest surviving example of a medieval city with its walls, gates and towers”. After giving a brief history of Rothenburg’s medieval past, its conversion to Protestantism after the Peasants’ Revolt in 1525 and its involvement in the Thirty Years’ War, he recounts a folkloric tale about Burgomaster Nusch saving the town from being plundered in 1621, by plying the Catholic Commander-in-Chief Tilly and his Imperial soldiers with large quantities of wine and himself accepting a challenge to drink the contents of a very large goblet. This tale, McMahon suggests, began the tradition of performing the historical festival play, “Der Meistertrunk”, in the Rathaus (Town Hall) every Whitsuntide. He then moves on to discuss what he coins as “Hitler’s Historical Programme”. In Nazi Germany, he suggests, there is a renewed interest in German folklore, a “renaissance of interest in the heroic stories of the German people”. As well as the festival play in Rothenburg, he cites school pilgrimages to the homes of Goethe and Schiller, the founding of museums, and parades in historically significant locations such as Nuremburg as examples of this trend. He commends the “far-reaching educative influence of such a treatment of history”, suggesting that “we could, with profit, do much more of that form of pageantry in school entertainments and occasional celebrations”. He concludes, however, by taking issue with Hitler’s stance on religion. Not only were the church steeples and shrines he saw in Bavaria evidence of the continued importance of religious faith in the “simple God-fearing lives of peasant farmers”, he argues, the continuing legacy of gothic churches such as St James (built in 1373) and ecclesiastical artwork such as Riemenschneider’s 1478 “Last Supper” could simply not be overlooked.

Description An account of the resource This article from <em>The West Australian</em> traces the history of Christmas carols back to the medieval period. It dates their origin to the beginning of the thirteenth century, when Francis of Assisi taught children to dance around a model of the manger in the Italian village of Greccio. Subsequently, they were introduced into England through the Mystery and Miracle plays. Although religious in content, the article notes with amusement that the carols were often set to the tune of drinking songs, presumably because they were familiar. Carols and the dances that accompanied them remained popular, the article claims, until Puritan edicts forbade Christmas festivities and all manner of celebration in the seventeenth century. Their survival is credited here to two nineteenth-century English clergymen, who translated a Swedish book of medieval melodies in 1853 and succeeded in reviving interest in carols and old folk songs more generally.

Description An account of the resource This article from <em>The Register</em> in 1915 traces the origins of Mothers&rsquo; Day celebrations to the medieval period, when adolescent children would be afforded a holiday from work on the fourth Sunday in Lent to &lsquo;go a-mothering&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&rsquo;s Christian Association headquarters in Adelaide.
