Title A name given to the resource ‘The Scaly Monster’ Subject The topic of the resource Alderman, ‘Bloody Jack,’ boat, cartoon, democracy, E. Montague Scott (1835-1909), John McElhone (1833-1898), knight, NSW politics, political cartoon, politics, Sydney Municipal Council, respectability Description An account of the resource &lsquo;The Scaly Monster&rsquo; drawing shows an unruffled &lsquo;Bloody Jack&rsquo; McElhone boarding a vessel embarking for England. This feisty Sydney alderman had a reputation for forthrightness and &lsquo;fisticuffs,&rsquo; which was not always appreciated by others. He was once referred to by Daniel O&rsquo;Connor as &ldquo;&lsquo;an illiterate mountebank,&rsquo; &lsquo;a commercial Shylock,&rsquo; &lsquo;an unscrupulous vulture,&rsquo; and &lsquo;a political Quilp&rsquo;&rdquo; (See Martha Rutledge, 'McElhone, John (1833&ndash;1898)',Australian Dictionary of Biography, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, <a href="http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/mcelhone-john-4087/text6529">http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/mcelhone-john-4087/text6529</a>, accessed 11 June 2012). O&rsquo;Connor had previously had a run-in with McElhone after calling him a &ldquo;servile lickspittle&rdquo;, for which he received a punch below the left eye. It is not entirely clear to whom or what &lsquo;The Scaly Monster of the House&rsquo; refers when he states, &ldquo;I do not care two straws what the public think. I treat the whole matter with contempt&rdquo;. It is probable that the cartoonist is merely highlighting the typical McElhone response to opposition of any kind. By all accounts he was well-used to causing indignation and political controversy. He was, however, essentially an honest man who frequently asked difficult questions of the government, and as a result &ldquo;exposed many public wrongs&rdquo; in the process. A bearded knight charging from behind may be Sir Henry Parkes, or it could be Sir John Robertson who also sported a luxuriant beard and flowing white locks. Either way, the &lsquo;knight&rsquo; is a representative &ldquo;champion of democracy&rdquo; (Marguerite Mahood,The Loaded Line: Australian Political Caricature 1788-1901,Carlton: Melbourne University Press, 1973, p.131), and a visible embodiment of political fairness and respectability.

Title A name given to the resource Vikingism Lecture Subject The topic of the resource Costume, Denmark, horned helmet, lecture, Lego, Legoland, myth, Shane McLeod, Ring Cycle, shield, sword, University of Western Australia, UWA, Viking, Vikingism, Richard Wagner, Warrior Description An account of the resource This photograph was taken during the final lecture of the 3rd year undergraduate unit The Vikings at The University of Western Australia. Although the unit focuses on the history of the Viking Age (c. 790-1100), the final lecture dealt with popular appropriations of the Vikings, or Vikingism, from the mid-nineteenth century. The lecture covered such topics as Wagner's Ring Cycle, novels, comics, art, music, and the recent films Thor and The Avengers. In the photograph the lecturer, Dr Shane McLeod, wears a t-shirt with an image of an unkempt warrior wearing a historically inaccurate horned helmet. Behind him is a slide showing a Lego Viking warrior with a sword and shield and also wearing a horned helmet from the Viking display at Legoland in Denmark, demonstrating that the horned helmet myth is also popular in Scandinavia where the Vikings originated.

Title A name given to the resource Campanile Tower, St Michael’s Uniting Church, Melbourne Subject The topic of the resource Anglican, arch, architecture, brickwork, campanile, church, church building, columns, Congregational Church, Former Independent Church, Independent Church, John Young, Joseph Reed (1823-1890), Lombardic Romanesque style, neo-romanesque, oculus, polychrome, Reed & Barnes, rounded arches, St Michael, tower, Uniting Church, VIC, Victoria, Victorian Romanesque, voussoir, window Description An account of the resource A view of the tall campanile tower at St Michael&rsquo;s Uniting Church in Collin&rsquo;s Street, central Melbourne. St Michael&rsquo;s Uniting Church was designed by architectural firm Reed and Barnes in a Victorian Romanesque style. The style has more specifically been described as &lsquo;Lombardic Romanesque&rsquo; on account of the polychrome brickwork and campanile style tower pictured here (See, for example, the Victorian Heritage Register: <a href="http://vhd.heritage.vic.gov.au/#detail_places;721">http://vhd.heritage.vic.gov.au/#detail_places;721</a>). The polychrome pattern is unusual for a neo-romanesque building, as it was more often found in buildings of gothic design. The church was constructed by John Young between 1866 and 1867, and was originally named The Independent Church. It was renamed in 1977.
