Description
Interdisciplinary in scope, this book constitutes the first overview of the development of early modern papal funeral apparati, the temporary decorations used during the funeral masses in St Peter's. Drawing from a range of unpublished sources, the author shows how the papal apparati functioned within the funerary liturgy and how the apparati compared to those of cardinals and princes on the stages of early modern Rome, Theatre of the World.
