This book examines death’s changing topography in Britain, France, the US, subSaharan Africa, British India, Australia and elsewhere from the perspectives of history, anthropology, and literary studies. It illuminates the religious and civil rites of passage societies created and maintained to mark dying, death and the treatment of human remains at a time when large forces were transforming the world. These essays illustrate the ways in which power went to work in death’s realm during a period of severe dislocation associated with industrialization, urbanization and imperialism, and mass movements of people, both forced and free. They show how, between 1800 and 1920 in the west, certain people’s bodies were considered to be of more value than others, so while some were cared for and memorialized those who were socially disconnected and poor were vulnerable to being turned into objects of study or disposed of in paupers’ graves. Meanwhile, abroad, imperialists acted upon the belief that idealized western ways of dying and corpse disposal had most moral worth. In empire ’s cause they interfered with others’ funerary and mortuary rituals, and deployed political and scientific theories to argue that high local mortality rates reflected a people’s own moral and material backwardness, and that the extinction of so-called savage races was inevitable rather than man-made. |
