{"product_id":"9781800815889","title":"No Ordinary Deaths","description":"\u003cp\u003eHistory is dominated by A-list deaths: queens beheaded archdukes assassinated. But what about everyone else? How did ordinary people depart this life and grieve for loved ones - and which of the old ways might help us prepare for the end? Our ancestors, living closer to death than we do, had a more intimate and integrated relationship with death as a familiar presence in daily life. From the death-watchers of the Middle Ages to the pomp of Victorian funeral wear, by way of plague pits, grave-robberies and wakes, historian and bereavement counsellor Molly Conisbee explores how cycles of dying, death and disposal have shaped - and been shaped by - society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wellcome Collection","offers":[{"title":"Molly \/ Conisbee","offer_id":57878633939318,"sku":"9781800815889","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/6727\/9990\/files\/9781800815889.jpg?v=1778858543","url":"https:\/\/bodiesinthebookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781800815889","provider":"Bodies in the Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
