Initially concerned exclusively with death and burial, this volume
grew to encompass the role of the living and the towns they
inhabit. The ten papers take an informal, relaxed tone, seeking to
inspire discussion rather than provide a definitive summary. John
Bradley's candid and witty "Urbanization in Early Medieval Ireland"
stands out especially. He points out that history is not just about
the past; it is very much about the present. (Spaces of the Living
and the Dead) adeptly interweaves both, examining historical facts
and our modern biases toward them.
