The Word of the Last Hour: Tombs and Epitaphs for Women in the Kingdoms of Jerusalem and Cyprus.

Résumé

This talk will examine the funerary monuments and inscriptions of the Latin populations in the areas of the two kingdoms of Jerusalem and Cyprus, from the epigraphic point of view. A series of a case studies are highlighted, with a special focus on tombstones devoted to women. This perspective serves two purposes: on the one hand it allows an examination of the role of women in a given society, mainly through the mechanisms of (self) representation entrusted to the epitaphs and the images, while, on the other, it enables us to question the totality of the funerary heritage in terms of similiarity and difference, as far as more general questions are concerned, even if funerary inscriptions for women in the Latin East as in Europe represent a minority.
