2. 2. Археология русской смерти. Этнография похоронного дела в современной России

   Этнография похоронного дела в современной России

   

   An ethnographic portrait of the contemporary Russian funeral sphere, tracing how families, officials, clergy, and entrepreneurs navigate death from morgue to cemetery. Drawing on fieldwork, it exposes the bureaucratic labyrinth, informal networks, and moral economies that shape services, prices, and rituals, while examining the material culture of graves and mourning. Placing current practices in historical context from Soviet legacies to post-Soviet marketization, it reveals how attitudes toward mortality, memory, and public space are negotiated in everyday life.

3. 3. История смерти. Как мы боремся и принимаем

   Как мы боремся и принимаем

   

   A concise cultural history of how humans confront mortality, tracing the evolution from communal rituals and religious frameworks to today’s medicalized, commercial, and digital approaches. It explores funeral and mourning practices, cemeteries, the rise of the death-care industry, biopolitics, and the shift from public rites to private grief, while examining modern efforts to manage or postpone death—palliative care, intensive care, cryonics, and transhumanist ambitions. Through these lenses, it shows how societies both fight against and learn to accept death, and how memory and meaning are preserved in monuments, museums, and online spaces.
