Medieval Tombs - meeting places of the living and the dead

Event Date: 
31/10/2014 - 1:00pm
Venue: 
Exeter Cathedral

The border between the living and the dead could be very permeable in the Middle Ages, especially at this time of year.

Naomi Howell (University of Exeter) will explain how medieval beliefs about ghosts, bodies and restless spirits are reflected in art, literature, and the tombs of Exeter Cathedral.
