Funerary International
We are no longer accepting proposals for this series.
The study of mortality is now an established academic endeavour which is rapidly expanding in scale and in disciplinary reach. Research is international and the established academic journals and conferences routinely draw contributors and participants from around the world. However members of this academic community routinely fail to communicate to each other basic facts about funerary practice in their home country which might serve to set their detailed research in context.
Rugg has accomplished her goal of creating a repository information on funerary practices and the legal cultural historical and religious contexts in which the funeral practices were developed changed and maintained over the last century and a half. She has given future scholars in the field a potentially valuable resource."
