| Abstract: |
The paper identifies a number of possible directions for academic research into the study of graveyards and memorial monuments in Britain in the early modern and modern periods, clustering around the three areas of demographic, family and social structure; the production and expression of identity; and changing beliefs about the living and the dead. It is suggested that the full potential of graveyard studies has not yet been exploited for a variety of reasons -- the essentially local remit and interest of most projects, which has not encouraged orientation toward ambitious historical questions; the absence of any standardised way of recording graveyards, and of any way of monitoring the work that has been done; and the failure to develop many extensive or imaginative research programmes. |
