This is a fascinating study of attitudes towards death and the afterlife in medieval Europe. Based on fourteenth-century unpublished sermons in memory of kings and princes, it examines the relationship between kingship and death, in a period when a genuinely secular political consciousness existed alongside other-worldly priorities. David D'Avray mixes political history with the history of mentalites to produce a unique look at funeral preaching during this era.
