In Death, Materiality and Mediation, Barbara Graham analyzes a
diverse range of objects associated with remembrance in both the
public and private arenas through ethnography of communities on
both sides of the Irish border. In doing so, she explores the
materially mediated interactions between the living and the dead,
revealing the physical, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual roles
of the dead in contemporary communities. Through this study, Graham
expands the concept of materiality to include narrative, song,
senses, emotions, ephemera and embodied experience. She also
examines how modern practices are informed by older beliefs and
folk religion.
