DESCRIPTION:Second lecture. Shenoute of Atripe (d. 465 C.E.) led a hug
 e monastic federation near the ancient city of Panopolis in Upper Egyp
 t\, at an early moment in the creation of monastic saints. He vigorous
 ly opposed ostentatious burial and the veneration of deceased humans\,
  even including Christian martyrs. Yet\, when he died\, his followers 
 created a painted tomb for him\, and placed an altar on the ground abo
 ve his body in the center of a chapel. This tomb chapel\, on the perip
 hery of the White Monastery\, gives material expression to a conflict 
 between the performance of perfect asceticism\, the decorum of burial 
 and commemoration of prominent individuals in the late Roman world\, a
 nd the construction of Shenoute as a saint.
