CHE SIGNIFICA EPITAPH IN INGLESE
Epitaffio
Un epitaffio è un breve testo che onora una persona defunta, rigorosamente parlando che è iscritta sulla loro lapide o targa, ma anche usata in modo figurativo. Alcune sono specificate dalla persona morta in anticipo, altre scelte da coloro che sono responsabili della sepoltura. Un epitaffio può essere in poesia versetto; I poeti sono stati conosciuti per comporre le proprie epitaffie prima della loro morte, come ha fatto William Shakespeare. La maggior parte delle epitaffie sono brevi registrazioni della famiglia, e forse la carriera dei defunti, spesso con espressione di amore o di rispetto - "padre amato di ..." - ma altri sono più ambiziosi. Dal Rinascimento al XIX secolo nella cultura occidentale, le epitaffie per persone notevoli sono diventate sempre più lunghe e pompose descrizioni delle origini familiari, della carriera, delle virtù e della famiglia immediata, spesso in latino. Tuttavia, la Laudatio Turiae, l'epitaffia antica romana più conosciuta, supera quasi tutti questi a 180 righe; Celebra le virtù di una moglie, probabilmente di un console. Alcuni sono citazioni di testi sacri o aforismi. Un approccio di molti epitaffi è quello di "parlare" al lettore e avvisarli della propria mortalità.
