The aim of this issue is to solicit the exploration of the meaning - by scholars and researchers from Italian or foreign universities engaged in their research in an unstructured condition - of the relationships between the condition of the transition from life to death and the forms of architecture. The call, using as an opportunity recent images and reflections highlighted by the particular condition of the current pandemic, will select a series of contributions that will complement the interventions proposed by some scholars and architects of renown who, in recent years, have dealt with the theme. Participants to the call can propose contributions related to each of the two sections (rites that accompany, rites that pass on) illustrated in the text below.
