QUE SIGNIFIE EPITAPH EN ANGLAIS
Épitaphe
Une épitaphe est un bref texte qui honore une personne décédée à proprement parler qui est inscrite sur leur pierre tombale ou plaque, mais également utilisée au sens figuré. Certains sont spécifiés par le décès d'avance, d'autres choisis par les personnes responsables de l'inhumation. Une épitaphe peut être en vers de poèmes; Les poètes ont su composer leurs propres épitaphes avant leur mort, comme William Shakespeare l'a fait. La plupart des épitaphes sont des récits succincts de la famille, et peut-être de la carrière du décédé, souvent avec une expression d'amour ou de respect - «père bien-aimé de ...» - mais d'autres sont plus ambitieux. De la Renaissance au 19ème siècle dans la culture occidentale, les épitaphes pour les personnes remarquables deviennent de plus en plus longues et des descriptions pompeuses de leurs origines familiales, carrière, vertus et famille immédiate, souvent en latin. Cependant, le Laudatio Turiae, l'épitaphe antique antique la plus longue connue, dépasse presque toutes ces lignes à 180 lignes; Il célèbre les vertus d'une femme, probablement d'un consul. Certains sont des citations de textes sacrés ou d'aphorismes. Une approche de nombreux épitaphes est de «parler» au lecteur et de les avertir de leur propre mortalité.
