Abstract
Medieval minor effigial monuments in West & South Wales: an interim survey
Sally F Badham
5 - 34
The first known survey of sepulchral slabs and effigies of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries in south and west Wales. Monumental types, their distribution and physical and stylistic origins are considered. The main divide in style is seen to be that between an insular tradition sharing many of its artistic terms of reference with Ireland (especially in west Wales where use of Ogham attests more frequent contact with Ireland than would have been the case elsewhere) and an Anglo-Norman tradition imported (sometimes literally in the case of brasses) from England. Monumental types are divided into: brasses; incised slabs; slabs in low relief or mixed techniques with full effigial representation; and semi-effigial monuments. The total number comes to thirty-eight and they are individually detailed in the `Appendix: topographical catalogue of medieval minor effigial monuments in West and South Wales' (23-32).
St Nicholas' churchyard, Kenilworth, Warwickshire: an appropriated monastic slab?
Harry Sunley
35 - 36
A tapered tomb slab dedicated in the nineteenth-century to the Poole family (1850s onwards) may have originated in the nearby Augustinian Kenilworth Abbey, which had been excavated in 1840.
Constructing the dead: late sixteenth and early seventeenth century effigy sculpture in Devon
C J M Faunch
41 - 63
Considers the development of effigial sculpture to incorporate kneeling, seated and standing figures, demi and portrait medallions in more emblematic and dramatic postures than the stiff, recumbent, late medieval figures that were their immediate predecessors. This change in iconographic and social representation is seen to reflect contemporary religious, political and economic upheaval and to have London workshops at its epicentre.
Thomas Carew's epitaph for Maria Wentworth at Toddington, Bedfordshire
Jeremy Maule
64 - 79
Consideration of the literary form which nonetheless makes reference to the iconography of and the verse's inscription on the monument to Maria Wentworth (d. 1632) at St Georges. Also notes the relevance of the neighbouring monument to Henrietta Maria Wentworth.
Academic commemoration: monuments at Corpus Christi College Oxford 1517-1700
Peter D Sherlock
80 - 87
Corpus Christi was founded in 1517 as a model humanist institution building on the scholastic tradition. This paper explores what, if any, influence the location of a monument could exercise over its form, using the college as an example. Though the fundamentals of monumental commemoration were seen to be the same here as elsewhere in the country, these standard forms were found to be focussed on the specifics of academic life. Extant and non-extant monuments are listed in the `Appendix: summary list of the monuments of Corpus Christi College Oxford 1517-1700' (86-7).

Midlands, south east and south west England provide the main body of examples.
