Epigraphica et Sepulcralia 9

Jiří Roháček (ed.)

The proceedings of the 16th international session on the issue of sepulchral monuments, which took place in Prague on 25 October – 27 October 2017. These regular conferences, organized since 2000 by the Institute of Art History of the Czech Academy of Sciences, are focused on sepulchral monuments as material artefacts of sepulchral culture and as works of art in the traditional sense of the word, with a factual or methodological relation to Central European issues. However, they do not not avoid themes that more widely explain the context in which these monuments were created and were functionally applied. An emphasis is placed on the nature of interdisciplinary expert meetings.
