From the simplest slab of weathered stone to the most imposing monument, every marker in Glasnevin cemetery bears witness to a life that, in ways small or large, helped shape the history and culture of the Irish state. Shane MacThomáis offers a fascinating insight into some of these lives in this book. Within its pages, you'll meet not only the heroes of the Irish fight for freedom, like Michael Collins and Éamon de Valera, but also lesser-known Irish men and women who made important contributions to the state in the arts, sports, military service, politics and other areas of Irish life. Glasnevin Cemetery, encompassing Mount Jerome, Bully's Acre, the Hugeunot Cemetery and the jewish Cemetery, has great national significance through the social and historical influence of the people buried there from all walks of life over 178 years. Famous people interred there include the founder of the cemetery, Daniel O'Connell, as well as Charles Stewart Parnell, Anne Devlin, O'Donovan Rossa, Christy Brown, Brendan Behan and Luke Kelly.

Founded in 1832, Prospect Cemetery, Glasnevin rapidly became the largest cemetery in Ireland and a place of national importance. This book demonstrates how the Dublin Cemeteries' Committee conducted its affairs and managed the various aspects of the operation of the cemetery. In examining the interaction of the committee with its employees, the study focuses on the lives of the ordinary people connected with the cemetery and provides a fascinating insight into a particular type of nineteenth century working environment. The establishment of Prospect Cemetery coincided with burial reform and the rise of the 'garden cemetery' movement in Britain and Europe. The author examines the cemetery in that context and assesses how it compared with its contemporaries in terms of interment practices, design and layout. This book opens a window onto a broad vista of Victorian beliefs and attitudes, encompassing moral values, class consciousness, work practices, approaches to organisation and management, and design theories and movements.

The book examines the universal subject of death? looking at the particular experience of death, burial and commemoration in Dublin since the sixteenth century. Using death as a way of understanding social conditions, contributions consider the role of the public funeral in establishing political hierarchies, the fate of the city?s Catholics during the era of the penal laws and the survival of the death penalty to 1990. They also explore the meanings of humble headstones, elaborate memorials and post-mortem photography. From Sir Francis Agard?s elite funeral in 1577, through the panicky burials during the Spanish flu in 1919, to the presentation of cemeteries as cultural tourism today, this handsomely illustrated collection offers a fascinating analysis of life? and death? in Dublin.

Most of the accounts of burial in Medieval Ireland are archaeological, but Fry looks instead at the wealth of written material that throws light on practices and beliefs during the period. In order to appeal to a broad readership, she assumes no knowledge about Irish geography, and identifies and lo
