Graveyard Poetry & Monumental Cemeteries

How graveyard poetry influenced burial practices & more!

Since returning from my gig as a cemetery symbols guide in Italy, many of you have asked for more details. While I did share this overview of the trip, questions keep coming, especially, "What did you learn there?" and "What exactly is a monumental cemetery, anyway?"

So with that in mind, I shared a few specific things I learned on my very favorite show: The Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery hosted by the amazing taphophile duo, Dianne Hartshorn and Jennie Johnson.

Watch the show to learn:

• What is a monumental cemetery?

• How graveyard poetry influenced burial practices

• Trees, Paganism and the Catholic Church

• How widows became Italy's first career women

• ... and more!
