Plus d'informations
Famous and Curious Cemeteries surveys the histories and unique characteristics of notable cemeteries in Europe and the United States as well as prominent American military burial grounds overseas. With a pictorial focus and anecdotal commentary, the volume highlights the cultural, historical, and artistic significance of these burial places, and draws attention to the famous and infamous individuals interred there. Combining historical narrative with photographs of monuments, mausoleums, and gravesites, the work offers both an informative guide and an engaging exploration of the ways in which societies remember and commemorate the dead. This illustrated reference book is organised into sections covering Europe and the West Indies, the United States, American military cemeteries overseas, and a selection of other interesting burial grounds. Each section provides historical context, descriptive accounts, and anecdotal observations about cemeteries such as Père?Lachaise, Greyfriars, Sleepy Hollow, and Arlington National, among others. The narrative combines cultural history, architectural description, and burial traditions with visual documentation in the form of black?and?white photographs. An accompanying bibliography and index support further research and exploration of cemetery history and funerary art.
