Without exception, all people are faced with the inevitability of
death, a stark fact that has immeasurably shaped societies and
individual consciousness for the whole of human history. Mirrors of
Passing offers a powerful window into this oldest of human
preoccupations by investigating the interrelationships of death,
materiality, and temporality across far-flung times and places.
Stretching as far back as Ancient Egypt and Greece and moving
through present-day locales as diverse as Western Europe, Central
Asia, and the Arctic, each of the richly illustrated essays
collected here draw on a range of disciplinary insights to explore
some of the most fundamental, universal questions that confront us.
