The social historian Anna-Maria Götz makes fruitful use of gender studies perspectives in the analysis of European bourgeois commemorative culture. Using the example of womanly grave sculptures she sheds light on the complex interaction of images of gender, visual and material culture and individual striving for representation. What emerged here is an especially valuable guide for questions in the field of interdisciplinary academic sepulchral studies and history, as well as a guide for non-academic fields such as civic engagement.Downloads
