Cemetery Plots from Victoria to Verdun considers the rhetoric of
burial reform, cemeterial customs, and epitaphic writing in Great
Britain from the mid-nineteenth century through the Great War. The
first half of the book studies mid- and late-Victorian responses to
death and burial, including epitaph collections, burial reform
documents, and fictional representations of burial and epitaph
writing, especially in the novels of Charles Dickens. The second
half studies the same discourse of burial, mourning, and epitaphs
in select fiction, memoirs, diaries, correspondence, and poems
produced in response to World War I in order to understand how
writing about individual memorialization changed in post-war
British literature and culture.
