Epigraphica & Sepulcralia 11. Fórum epigrafických a sepulkrálních studií. Sborník příspěvků z 18 a 19. mezinárodního zasedání k problematice sepulkrálních památek, Praha 6.-7. listopadu 2019 a online 12.-13. listopadu 2020
Roháček, Jiří
The proceedings of the 18th and 19th international sessions on the issue of sepulchral monuments, which took place in Prague on 6 – 7 November 2019 and online on Zoom (due to the coronavirus epidemic) 12 – 13 November 2020. These regular conferences, organized since 2000 by the Institute of Art History, 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 the Central European issues. However, they do not avoid themes, that more widely explain the context, in which these monuments were created and were functionally applied. The emphasis is placed on the nature of interdisciplinary expert meetings. Since the 15th session in 2016, however, it has also started to take note of Jewish sepulchral monuments and, given the topicality of the topic, also Muslim ones, but still with a close connection to Central European issues. Through their focus and periodicity, they are unique in a pan-European context. The series Epigraphica & Sepulcralia has been the publication forum of these sessions since 2005. The conference proceedings bring a total of twenty contributions divided into unequal parts, one of which is devoted to Christian sepulchral monuments and the other to Jewish sepulchral monuments. In addition to Czech and Moravian themes, Slovak, Polish and Hungarian themes traditionally have a significant share.
