Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Funeral Customs' is an exhaustive and fascinating exploration of the rites, superstitions, and traditions surrounding death and burial across human history. Bertram S. Puckle provides a detailed survey of how various cultures have approached the inevitable end of life, examining everything… from the preparation of the body to the evolution of the modern cemetery. The work delves into the origins of mourning dress, the significance of the wake, the development of hearses, and the symbolic importance of bells and floral tributes.Through a lens that is both anthropological and historical, the book illuminates the curious and often macabre practices that have shaped social etiquette and religious ceremony. Readers will discover the history behind common superstitions, the transition from simple burials to elaborate monuments, and the societal pressures that dictated the conduct of the bereaved. Puckle's research offers a unique perspective on how the living have sought to honor, fear, or remember the dead through the ages. This classic study remains a vital resource for those interested in social history, cultural anthropology, and the enduring human rituals associated with mortality.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
