In the popular imagination, the Middle Ages was an exceedingly violent era, and it had a very particular relationship to death. Multifaceted and stirring, it was an everyday part of life between the 6th and the 16th century. Its presence in every strata of medieval society means that the research that went into this volume could only be multidisciplinary, covering areas such as art history, archeology, sociology, theology and forensic science. Divided into four chapters (the causes of death, accompanying the dying and funeral rites, the topography of death, and from death to resurrection), the book paints a picture of what death was like in the Middle Ages.
