Description

Explore the complex history and modern relevance of martyrdom in this academic study from Amsterdam University Press. Martyrdom: Canonisation, Contestation and Afterlives examines how these acts are canonized, contested, and remembered across different cultures. The book investigates how martyrdom functions as a highly ambiguous spectacle that triggers the human imagination and leads to significant social consequences. By connecting these events with cross-cultural practices of remembrance, this work explores how martyrs only truly become martyrs through the acts of those who honor and remember them. This text provides a deep look into the heritage and memory studies surrounding these historical and contemporary phenomena.
