| description | The purpose of this article is partly to find out how
the burial grounds are used today and the needs of its
visitors, but also to develop the character and
expression of future burial grounds. My suggestions
focus on burial grounds without religious attributes;
something that, according to the burial law
(Begravningslagen, 1990:1144), the manager of the
burial ground is ordered to obey. In my design I aim to
fulfill any requests regarding the place of burial that
have been raised during my study.
I have chosen the history of burial grounds as my
starting point and will subsequently discuss their
significance in today's society. I describe what
distinguishes the burial ground throughout history
from medieval times and onwards. Tradition and
religion are closely linked regarding burial rituals. As
the Swedish churchyard has a long Christian tradition
it has at times felt necessary to introduce certain
Christian aspects. I have also briefly explored how
religion can express itself in today's secularized
society.
One important aspect I have noted is how the burial
place can be used by the grieving and those in crisis
and how it's been used as a place fore memorial.
Literature documenting the importance of nature's
healing properties and their effect on a person's sacred
experiences is therefore an important part of this
article.
The article is founded on literature studies, interviews
and study visits to burial grounds. With this
knowledge base as my source of inspiration I have
formed three burial grounds.
Through my studies I have seen two clear aspects in
the development of burial ground expressions;
monumental memorials with strong architectural
influences and the nature-like burial ground, which is
created by enhancing nature's prerequisites to develop
a sacred place. Often makes those to aspects used
together un strongly sacred place.
By the end of this article I will have presented three
suggestions for the burial ground of the future.
In the first proposition I have given form to an
expansion of a pre-existing churchyard, using real
prerequisites. The proposition is a traditional design
with modern functions. The later suggestions are nonplace-
specific concept sketches created from imagined
environments; Trösteriket - an indoor burial place
and Omfamning - monument by water. |

Mitt syfte med denna uppsats är att dels ta reda på hur begravningsplatsen används idag och vilka behov dess besökare har men också att utveckla idéer för framtida begravningsplatsers gestaltningsuttryck. Mina förslag fokuserar på begravningsplatsen utan religiösa attribut, något som huvudmannen för begravningsplatsen enligt begravningslagen (Begravningslagen, 1990:1144) är ålagd att följa. I min utformning försöker jag uppfylla önskemål angående begravningsplatsen som framkommit i mina studier. Jag har valt att ta avstamp i begravningsplatsens historia, för att sedan behandla dess betydelse i dagens samhälle. Jag beskriver vad som utmärkt begravningsplatsen under historien från medeltiden och framåt. Gällande begravningsritualer är tradition och religion nära sammankopplat. Eftersom den svenska kyrkogården har en lång kristen tradition har det känts relevant att ta upp vissa kristna aspekter. Jag har också berört hur religiositeten kan yttra sig i dagens sekulariserade samhälle. En viktig aspekt som jag tagit fasta på är hur begravningsplatsen kan brukas av sörjande människor i kris samt hur den brukas av människor som minnesplats. Därför utgör litteratur om naturens läkande förmåga samt om naturens betydelse för människans sakrala upplevelser en viktig del av uppsatsen. Uppsatsen bygger på litteraturstudier, intervjuer och studiebesök på begravningsplatser. Med den kunskapsbasen som inspirationskälla har jag gestaltat tre begravningsplatser. Jag har genom mina studier sett två tydliga gestaltningsaspekter i utvecklingen av begravningsplatsens uttryck; monumentala minnesmärken med starka arkitektoniska grepp och den naturlika begravningsplatsen som gestaltas genom att förstärka naturens grundförutsättningar för att skapa en sakral plats. Ofta stärks den sakrala stämningen på platsen genom att dessa två sammanfogas. I slutet av uppsatsen redovisas mina tre gestaltningsförslag; tre möjliga gestaltningsuttryck av framtidens begravningsplatser. I det första förslaget har jag gestaltat en utvidgning av en befintlig kyrkogård, utifrån verkliga förutsättningar. Förslaget är en traditionell utformning med nya funktioner. De senare förslagen är icke platsspecifika konceptskisser skapade utifrån tänkta miljöer; Trösteriket - en begravningsplats inomhus och Omfamning � monument vid vatten. 2008-06-04 Other NonPeerReviewed application/pdf sv https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/12122/1/lannergard_k_171107.pdf Sidén Lannergård, Karin, 2008.
