Mortuary Dialogues presents fresh perspectives on death and
mourning across the Pacific Islands. Through a set of rich
ethnographies, the book examines how funerals and death rituals
give rise to discourse and debate about sustaining moral personhood
and community amid modernity and its enormous transformations. The
book's key concept, "mortuary dialogue," describes the different
genres of talk and expressive culture through which people struggle
to restore individual and collective order in the aftermath of
death in the contemporary Pacific.
