Riassunto:

An account of post-Reformation church art: the carved stone funeral monument.

Recensione:

Review of the hardback: 'This is essential reading for art historians, social historians and even students of the politics and economics of the period.' The Art Newspaper

Review of the hardback: 'Dr Llewellyn is to be commended for establishing a new area of inquiry: the visual culture of churches and the practice of commemoration in early modern England.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History

Review of the hardback: 'This is undoubtedly an important work which will remain the standard text for the foreseeable future.' Renaissance Studies

Review of the hardback: 'Llewelyn's study has much to inform the serious 'Reformation' theologian.' Laudetur

Review of the hardback: 'Llewellyn's study explores the complexities and range of these ambitious works and persuasively argues for their importance as registers of shifting social attitudes and aspirations. this important book deserves the attention not merely of art historians, but of a far wider variety of scholars working on the material culture of post-medieval England.'
