القبر الخاوي (cenotaph ، وتـُنطـَق "سِنوتاف") هو قبر فارغ أو نصب مقام تكريماً لشخص أو مجموعة من الأشخاص توجد رفاتهم في مكان آخر. يمكن أن يكون أيضًا القبر الأولي لشخص أعيد دفنه في مكان آخر. على الرغم من أن الغالبية العظمى من القبور تكرم الأفراد، إلا أن العديد من القبور المشهورة مكرسة لذكريات مجموعات من الأفراد، مثل الجنود المفقودين في بلد أو إمبراطورية.

التاريخ وأصل الاسم

The English word "cenotaph" derives from the باليونانية: κενοτάφιον kenotaphion (κενός kenos, meaning "empty", and τάφος taphos, "tomb").[1][2][3]

القبور الخاوية كان شائعة في العالم القديم. فالعديد منهم بـُني في مصر القديمة واليونان القديمة وفي أرجاء شمال أوروپا (على شكل Neolithic barrows).

The cenotaph in Whitehall, London — designed in 1919 by Sir Edwin Lutyens — influenced the design of many other war memorials in Britain and in the British sectors of the Western Front, as well as those in other Commonwealth nations. Lutyen's cenotaph was chosen as a deliberately secular monument.[4]

The Church of Santa Engrácia, in Lisbon, Portugal, turned into a National Pantheon in 1966, holds six cenotaphs, namely to Luís de Camões, Pedro Álvares Cabral, Afonso de Albuquerque, Nuno Álvares Pereira, ڤاسكو دا گاما و هنري الملاح.

The Basilica di Santa Croce in Florence, Italy, contains a number of cenotaphs, including one for Dante Alighieri, who is buried in Ravenna.

In the Museum of Aquitaine, in Bordeaux, there is the famous cenotaph of Michel de Montaigne, a French Renaissance writer and philosopher. The tomb was sculpted in 1593, a year after his death on the request of his wife, Françoise de la Chassaigne, probably by Prieur and Guillerman, two Bordeaux ornamentists.[10]

On the cenotaph, next to the coat of arm, there are two epitaphs, in Greek and in Latin. The one in Latin begins by : "To Michel de Montaigne, son of Pierre, grand-son of Grimond, grand-grand-son of Raymond, knight of Saint-Michel, ex-mayor of the city of Bordeaux, a man born for the glory, with gentle manners, a witty mind..."[11]

A cenotaph in the UK that stands in Whitehall, London, was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens[12] and replaced Lutyens' identical wood-and-plaster cenotaph erected in 1919 for the Allied Victory Parade, and is a Grade I listed building.[13] It is undecorated save for a carved wreath on each end and the words "The Glorious Dead," chosen by Lloyd George. It was intended to commemorate specifically the victims of the First World War, but is used to commemorate all of the dead in all wars in which British servicemen and women have fought. The dates of the First World War and the Second World War are inscribed on it in Roman numerals. The design was used in the construction of many other war memorials throughout the British Empire.

القبور الخاوية للمفقودين

Although most notable cenotaphs commemorate notable individuals buried elsewhere, many cenotaphs pay tribute to people whose remains have never been located, particularly those lost at sea. Some such cenotaphs are dedicated to victims of the RMS Titanic whose bodies were not recovered after the sinking. Although Isidor Straus's body was recovered, Ida Straus's body was not, and a cenotaph at the Straus Mausoleum at Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx is dedicated to Isidor and Ida together. Its inscription reads: "Many waters cannot quench love – neither can the floods drown it."[14] (of Solomon%208:7&verse=nkj&src=! Song of Solomon 8:7 nkj) The striking cenotaph of Major Archibald Butt, aide to U.S. President William Taft, is located at Arlington National Cemetery.[15]

In Inishmore, one of the Aran Islands of Ireland, drowning was formerly such a common cause of death for island fishermen that each family had a memorial to those lost at sea known as leachtaí cuimhneacháin (memorial cairns). Most were erected in the 19th century, although some date back to the eighteenth. A modern memorial was erected in 1997.[16][17]

In India, cenotaphs are a basic element of Hindu architecture, later used by Moghuls as seen in most of the mausoleums of Mughal Emperors which have two burial chambers, the upper one with a cenotaph, as in Humayun's Tomb, Delhi, or the Taj Mahal, Agra, while the real tomb often lies exactly below it, or further removed. The term chhatri, used for these canopylike structures, comes from Hindustani word literally meaning umbrella, and are found throughout the northwestern region of Rajasthan as well as in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. In the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, chhatris are built on the cremation sites of wealthy or distinguished individuals. Chhatris in Shekhawati may consist of a simple structure of one dome raised by four pillars to a building containing many domes and a basement with several rooms. In some places, the interior of the chhatri is painted in the same manner as the Haveli.

شعر

Cenotaph is used in Henry Ellison's[18] (1833) poem, Scientific Theories:

 
O Science! proud Iconoclast, thy way
Is strewed with fragments of our reverence
And love—idols with small or no pretence,
Right oft, upon their pedestals to stay,
The light oft intercepting of God's day,
E'en in His Temple! Light too pure, intense,
Which puts the eye out, dazzles the weak sense
Of mere Humanity, after its clay
Shaping its images. But take thou good heed
Thou dost not, in self-blindness and self-pride,
Pluck down the Temple's self, and, in its stead
And on its ruins, strewed far and wide,
Building as not for Living but True-dead,
A cenotaph for Man's lost Soul provide!

Mentioned in Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf

In the Internet age, virtual cenotaphs are common in the game World of Warcraft.[19][20] and in The Elder Scrolls Series games though modding add ons. [21][22][23][24]

They have also been created in the augmented reality game Ingress in honour of the slain MIT police officer Sean Collier[25] and in memory of the victims of the 1942 Struma disaster.[26]

On 13 January 2016, Belgian amateur astronomers at MIRA Public Observatory dedicated, in conjunction with radio station Studio Brussels, an asterism of seven stars in the vicinity of Mars which had been photographed at the exact time of David Bowie's death; when appropriately connected they form the iconic lightning bolt of Aladdin Sane.[27][28]
