Description

The Materiality of Mourning explores how tangible objects shape grief and remembrance across cultures and historical periods. This Routledge volume brings together scholars from anthropology, history, fashion, thanatology, religious studies, archaeology, classics, sociology and political science to examine the profound connections between physical remains and our emotional responses to death. The contributors analyse diverse objects found in funerary contexts, investigating how material things carry meaning, preserve memory and facilitate mourning rituals. By combining perspectives on emotions, memory and material agency, this interdisciplinary collection offers deeper insights into why certain objects become so significant in our relationships with the deceased and how they help us process grief and loss across different societies and time periods.
