Understood as a space for religious rituals, saturated with religious iconography\n and meaning and full of biblical symbolism, burial spaces formed a \u2018hot\n spot\u2019 of religion. After focusing on the cemetery as a religious space,\n this paper will turn to the movement of cemeteries form inside the city\n to its outside and indicate some of the reasons people living in the \nearly modern period gave for the movement of cemeteries. The next part \nsketches some European comparisons, focusing, in particular, on the \nBritish Isles, which show a different kind of reasoning behind the \nmovement of cemeteries and indicate that religion was only a key factor \nfor the movement of cemeteries, if combined with other causes. Finally, \nthe paper considers one of the key questions regarding the movement of \ncemeteries, that is, if the move of the burial spaces outside of the \ncity walls led to a more secular city, a view that is still highly \ninfluential in the historiography on this topic. By way of conclusion, I\n offer some questions for further directions of this research. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
