Main Article Content
Abstract
The paper discusses the depictions of death and dying from the epitaphs at the Rakowicki Cemetery in Krakow. The epitaphs analyzed come from mostly non-extant gravestones form the period 1803-1865 recorded in the 19th century by Antoni Kostecki. Among many synonyms of death occurring in the epitaphs, two major groups can be distinguished: explicit references to dying and its euphemistic mostly idiomatic descriptions. The analysis demonstrates considerable changes that were taking place in death-related vocabulary at the beginning of the 19th century.
