Exploring the concept of the dead as an imagined community in the early nineteenth century, this book delves into how Romantic and Victorian writers viewed the portrayal of the deceased as a means to influence social and political reform. It highlights the works of notable authors like Wordsworth and Dickens, while also featuring lesser-known figures, to illustrate the intersection of literary representation and societal attitudes towards death. The study enriches the field of Death Studies by linking literary aesthetics, psychology, and ethics to the cultural practices surrounding death.
