Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Not until the 1990s did scholars show much interest in the history of cremation in Britain, and none so far have focused on the changing architecture of crematoria. Being a specialist in that very thing, Grainger (fashion, U. of the Arts, London) traces the changes in the places of cremation from the late 19th century, when the practice began in Britain, to their privatization after 1970. Distributed in the US by the David Brown Book Company. Annotation �2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
