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
During her first royal visit in 1954, Queen Elizabeth II opened the sitting of Australia’s federal parliament at Parliament House on 15 February 1954. As this photograph from the Western Mail shows, she wore her coronation gown and the sash of the Order of the Garter.
‘The Most Noble Order of the Garter’ is the highest order of chivalry in the British heraldic system. It was established by Edward III in 1348, and membership was limited to the sovereign, the Prince of Wales and twenty-four knights. Over time, the membership has been widened to make allowances for members of the British royal family and foreign monarchs.
The star of the Order, containing the heraldic shield of the St George Cross encircled by the garter inside an eight-pointed star, is clearly visible on the Queen’s sash in this image.
For more on the history of the Order of the Garter, see Stephanie Trigg, ‘The Vulgar History of the Order of the Garter’ in Gordon McMullan & David Matthews (eds), Reading the Medieval in Early Modern England, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2007, pp.91-105.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>A photograph of a raven banner at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale. A raven banner is mentioned in a (late) version of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle reporting on a battle in 878 between an invading Viking group and the men of Devon. The latter defeated the invaders and are said to have captured their raven banner. The Saga of the Earls of Orkney reports that a raven banner was made for Sigurd the Stout/Great, and Knut is thought to have had one at the Battle of Ashingdon in 1016. The raven is possibly associated with the Norse god Odin, but it is equally likely that a carrion bird is thought to have been an appropriate battle symbol. The raven on the banner in the photograph is based on the raven featured on the coins of Anlaf Guthfrithsson, the Viking king who ruled from York from 939-41.</p>

<p>The Great Synagogue on Elizabeth Street in central Sydney opened in 1878, when it was described as a mix of Romanesque, Gothic, Byzantine, and Moorish motifs (according to the official website – link provided below). The architectural style has also been described as Transitional French Gothic. The synagogue was designed by Sydney architect Thomas Rowe. These two photographs show the much less elaborate rear of the building with Romanesque rounded-arch windows on Castlereagh Street. This section of the synagogue housed a school and Beadle’s (caretaker) residence, but only the façade at the rear is original. </p>

Description
An account of the resource
An image of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Leederville, Western Australia. Designed by the architect E. Hamilton and built under the supervision of E.T. Russell, the foundation stone of the church was laid by Archbishop P.J. Clune on the 6th of May 1923.
St. Mary's embodies features that are typical of the Gothic Revival style of architecture, which became prominent from the 1840s in the United Kingdom, Australia, and other British colonies. As an architectural style, it is based on the close examination of medieval structures, and a concern with 'authenticity' of design. It is often seen to be symbolic of conservative values such as, continuity, stability, religious authority and tradition. The spire, vaulted ceilings, lancet windows and ornate stonework of this building are features which are typical of the Gothic Revival style.
