| 520 | |a Death is a historical phenomenon - although pervasive and unavoidable, it has not been understood or experienced in a uniform fashion over time. Death has visited some times and places more heavily than others; ideas about death, rites surrounding it, and the memorials and monuments commemorating it have varied over time and place.

Finally, the essay suggests why death mattered and how Americans made sense - and made use - of death and mortal remains in early America. | ||
