Tourism in ossuary from an anthropological perspective
Horáková, Markéta ; Halbich, Marek (advisor) ; Ponocná, Petra (referee)
In this thesis I will focus on tourism in the ossuary in Kutná Hora. In the first part I plan to describe theoretical background of anthropology of tourism. In the second part I will discuss the history of ossuaries and the changes in the perception of death in society. In the final part, I will present the results of my own research of tourism in the ossuary. My aim is to relate the research I conducted, through interviews transcribed, to the theoretical approaches. Furthermore, I will present my own typology of visitors of the ossuary and also focus on the motives these tourists have to visit there. Key words: tourism, tourists, ossuary, cemetery.
