Zusammenfassung:Medieval tombs often depict husband and wife lying side-by-side, and hand in hand, immortalised in elegantly carved stone: what Phiilip Larkin's poem An Arundel Tomb later described as their 'stone fidelity'. This first full account of the 'double tomb' places its rich tradition into dialogue with powerful discourses of gender, marriage, politics and emotion during the Middle Ages.
