Title A name given to the resource Gaunt's Clock, Royal Arcade, Melbourne Subject The topic of the resource arcade, Britain, Brutus, Corineus, Gauntâ€™s Clock, Geoffrey of Monmouth (d.1154/5), giants, Gog, Gogmagog, guardian, Guildhall, Historia Regum Britanniae, legend, London, Magog, medieval folklore, Melbourne, myth, mythology, porter, Royal Arcade, statues, time, Trojan army Description An account of the resource A view of Gauntâ€™s Clock in Royal Arcade, Melbourne. Royal Arcade was designed by architect Charles Webb and was completed in 1870. Gauntâ€™s Clock was added in 1892. On either side of the clock is a statute of the mythical giants Gog and Magog, who symbolically strike chimes every hour. According to the legend cited in the description under the clock, Gog and Magog were captured by Brutus and forced to serve as porters at the gateway of a palace on the site of the Guildhall in London. They are indeed guardians of the City of London, and wooden statutes of the figures were installed at the Guildhall in the early eighteenth century. These statues replaced large wicker models of the giants that had been paraded in the Lord Mayorâ€™s Procession since the time of Henry V (r.1414-1422), but that were destroyed in the Great Fire. The description under the clock reads: â€œThese two 7-feet giants have been striking the time on Gaunt's clock since 1892. They were carved from clear pine and modelled on the figures erected in Guildhall, London, in 1708 to symbolise the conflict between the ancient Britons and the Trojan invaders. Mythology tells of the giants Gog and Magog (also known as Corineus and Gogmagog) having been captured in battle by the Trojans and made to serve as porters at the gateway of an ancient palace on a site later occupied by the Guildhall. It is traditional for Gog to stand to the north and Magog to the south.â€ However, although the description lists Corineus was an alternate name for Gog, Geoffrey of Monmouth describes Corineus as an ally of Brutus in his twelfth-century Historia Regum Britanniae, and credits him with slaying the giant GoÃ«magot (by throwing him into the sea).

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 â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™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.

About the Ancient Order of Foresters:   The Ancient Order of Foresters originated in England in the mid-eighteenth century, with the first recorded Foresters meeting being held in Leeds in 1834. The Ancient Order of Foresters established its first branch (court) in Australia in Victoria in 1849. The Foresters are a non-profit organisation. The principles of the society are founded on a desire to provide financial and social benefits as well as support to members and their families in times of unemployment, sickness, death, disability and old age. Consequently, the Foresters played a particularly active role in the lives of members and their families during the Depression and both World Wars. Membership growth was significant during and up to the mid 1940's. At this stage the society had nearly one hundred courts located throughout Victoria, and had representation in all states of Australia. During this period funds raised by Foresters contributed to the construction of approximately twenty Foresters halls throughout the state. These facilities were utilised for meetings and community purposes and halls were used as refuges in times of trauma such as bushfires and floods. In the post Second World War period membership began to decline as the social circumstances improved due to the growth of the economy and an abundance of work and improvement in the provision of government benefits. Although the importance of such groups as the Ancient Order of Foresters has declined in recent years, the society through a core of loyal and dedicated members, has never wavered from its original objectives and mission to "serve the community and deserving groups by involvement in social activities and fund raising for charities." <a href="http://www.forestersfs.com.au/1history.html">http://www.forestersfs.com.au/1history.html</a>   Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Hood, Ted Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived The State Library of New South Wales Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1929 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource State Library of New South Wales Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Hyperlink; Photograph Ancient Order of Foresters banner banners float floats Foresters fraternities fraternity friendly societies friendly society New South Wales NSW parade parades procession processions Ted Hood Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
