Description

During the early modern period magnificent tombs and epitaphs offered princes and the nobility an effective means promoting for their interests and refashioning their identity and in a rapidly changing society. Enormous funds were spent on these monuments, either by the occupants themselves or by their heirs, for whom the sepulchers became a generalized marker of family status. Epitaphs were also fashioned of words, penned in ink and published as well as engraved in stone. Poetical tributes and eulogies to rulers gave them another type of public persona.


For this conference we wish to focus on the agency of these creations in the social and political arena of Northern Europe from 1470 to 1670. Previous discussions have concentrated on the culture of death and remembrance. Although these concepts are integral to any consideration of tombs and epitaphs, we will concentrate here on their broader cultural and political significance.
