Abstract

SEMPE, María Carlota  and  EMILIANO, Gómez Llanes. (funerary architecture and social sectors). Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2011, n.40, pp.101-117. ISSN 1668-8104.

The different social sectors that integrate a community have done a different reception of architectural styles according to his economic capabilities and knowledge of these styles.             Here we apply the theory of the aesthetics reception developed by Jauss and Gadamer. We propose that a architectural style was read in a particular way, both the designer's work as the builder and the party seeking it.             Following Bourdieu "... The differences associated to different position, that is to say, the goods, the practices and especially the ways, operate in each society, like the constitutive differences of the symbolic systems."             Here we analyze examples of funerary structures belonging to the architectural Neogothic style, coming from the foundational sector of La Plata's cemetery.             We conclude that in an urban cemetery, the pantheon's possession, its size and «manner» to use the architectonic style acted as a distinctive property in the social field.
