AB  - Explores rhetoric of Shakespeare's references to tombs and funeral monuments, drawing on examples from the first and second tetralogies, Timon of Athens, Antony and Cleopatra, and Winter's Tale. Argues that Henry V uses tomb and monument "symbolism not only to engage with his own past and the past of his country but also to envision a future when he endures eternally through his conquests and his monument." Suggests that early modern tombs are symbols of remembrance, revision, and future-building.
