Abstract

As well as a clear rising of the sumptuous tombs is asserted during the 14 th and 15 th centuries within the sphere of nobility, also an increase in the decoration of graves took place in that of the bourgeois elites. In fact, this phenomenon of emulation with regard to the urbanized fidalguia will be the most characteristic one of this enriched bourgeoisie, which is an essential part of the municipal oligarchies. We will analyse some aspects of this class representation, especially concerning funerary sculpture, and from a perspective of critique of ideology and lacanian theory, especially in what refers to a paradigmatic example, the tomb of Joam do Campo in Sao Domingos de Bonaval.
