The Easter Sepulchre is the English form of a monument known
throughout Western Europe in the Middle Ages as the sepulchrum
domini, the tomb of the Lord, the monument associated specifically
with the commemorative Easter rites. The Easter Sepulchre stood in
the place of Christ's tomb in Jerusalem, recreated in hundreds of
churches in England for Holy Week and Easter each year. This volume
discusses this important monument that stands at the intersection
of several important aspects of medieval culture: its study
impinges upon the fields of drama, liturgy, art history, and social
history. The study is organized so as to trace individual threads -
the representations of the Holy Sepulchre in art, the development
of the commemorative Easter rites, and the form and iconography of
the Easter Sepulchre - before describing the pattern that results
when they are interwoven. This volume is of critical interest to
those studying this monument, and sheds light on the intersections
of medieval English developments in art, liturgy, drama, and
popular religion.
