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.

Title A name given to the resource Norman baptismal font, St Mary’s Cathedral, Hobart, Tasmania Subject The topic of the resource Arch, baptismal font, Catholic, column, font, Hobart, Norman, Norman font, Romanesque, St Mary’s Cathedral, Tas, Tasmania, Robert William Willson, Bishop Willson. Description An account of the resource <p>Repair work on St Mary&rsquo;s Catholic Cathedral, Hobart, in 2008 brought to light the possibility that a baptismal font in the Cathedral may be from the medieval Norman period. The cylindrical font has elaborately carved columns and Romanesque arches. The Romanesque style was popular in Normandy and was introduced to England following the Norman conquest in 1066. It is thought that the font was brought to Hobart from England by Tasmania&rsquo;s first Catholic bishop, Robert William Willson (1794-1866) in 1844. When the antiquity of the font was first discovered, the Cathedral administrator told ABC News in 2008 that it may date<br />back to the ninth century, but as Normandy was not formally established until 911 this is unlikely. More recently it has been suggested that the font comes<br />from the Norman period in England and is dated c. 1066-1200. Research into the font is continuing.</p> <p>The baptismal font is a rare example of the Australian<br />public&rsquo;s practical use of, and interaction with, an actual medieval item for many generations.</p> <p>For the original dating see <a href="http://www.cathnews.com/article.aspx?aeid=7424">http://www.cathnews.com/article.aspx?aeid=7424</a>.</p> <p>For the revised dating see <a href="http://hobart.catholic.org.au/history/st-marys-cathedral">http://hobart.catholic.org.au/history/st-marys-cathedral</a></p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource McLeod, Shane Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource October 6, 2012 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource No Copyright Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Digital Photograph arch baptismal font Bishop Willson.

Title A name given to the resource Medievalism on the Page Description An account of the resource 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 children’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.

These include a man concerned about winter chills, a man whose father was either poisoned or died from appendicitis, a woman concerned about goitres and a patient to whom the doctor explained the difference between cat-gut and silkworm-gut stitches. At the end of the article is a section titled “Medieval Health, from this week’s reading”. Following two notes about the injurious historical practice of binding women’s waists and eighteenth-century corsets, this section contains the following curious comment about the perceived absence of psychiatric medicine in medieval England: “As ‘Punch’ points out, ‘The reason that there were no psychiatrists in medieval England is that the country was only sparsely inhabited’”.

Subject The topic of the resource Agincourt, cello, Crecy, export, gut, Hampton Court, harp, Henry VIII, lute, medieval craft, medieval production, music strings, musical instrument, sheep, tennis racquet, violin Description An account of the resource In this Western Mail article about Britain’s export of five million yards of musical instrument strings each year, Australia is identified as the top destination for harp strings. In contrast, the article singles out South Africa as preferring fretted instruments and New Zealand the cello. The article goes on to explain that while modern strings could be made from gut, silk, steel or metal wire, the making of strings was a craftsman’s job dating from the gut strings of medieval instruments, weaponry and recreational equipment: ‘As far as gut goes, the British tradition runs back to the medieval lute, the bows used at Crecy and Agincourt, and the racquet with which Henry VIII played “real” tennis at Hampton Court’. Following a definition of “gut” as the strong membranes from the insides of sheep and a comment on the skill of British craftsmen in making strings for unusual as well as standard musical instruments, the focus returns to the harp at the end of the article. It suggests that making harp strings was a particularly difficult job because a harp has six octaves, and each string has to be chosen separately.

Description An account of the resource The three-level Old Brisbane Arcade was developed by Neil Pitt and can be found in the centre of the Tasmanian city of Launceston. The interior of the arcade includes a half-timbered building effect, whilst at the exterior of the rear courtyard there is some crenellation. Half-timbered buildings were common in medieval northern Europe from the twelfth century. These medieval features may be a nod towards the arcade being behind the façade of what was at one time the Robin Hood and Little John Hotel, named after the popular medieval English outlaws. The hotel had been built in 1824 and was named the Robin Hood and Little John for a few years in the mid-nineteenth century, before finally becoming the Brisbane Hotel.
