The human body is the locus of meaning, personhood, and our sense of the possibility of sanctity. The desecration of the human corpse is a matter of universal revulsion, taboo in virtually all human cultures. Not least for this reason, the unburied corpse quickly becomes a focal point of political salience, on the one hand seeming to express the contempt of state power toward the basic claims of human dignity--while on the other hand simultaneously bringing into question the very legitimacy of that power. In Unburied Bodies: Subversive Corpses and the Authority of the Dead, James Martel surveys the power of the body left unburied to motivate resistance, to bring forth a radically new form of agency, and to undercut the authority claims made by state power. Ranging across time and space from the battlefields of ancient Thebes to the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, and taking in perspectives from such writers as Sophocles, Machiavelli, Walter Benjamin, Hannah Arendt, James Baldwin, Judith Butler, Thomas Lacqueur, and Bonnie Honig, Martel asks why the presence of the abandoned corpse can be seen by both authorities and protesters as a source of power, and how those who have been abandoned or marginalized by structures of authority can find in a lifeless body fellow accomplices in their aspirations for dignity and humanity.

Depuis les premières fouilles de la nécropole tumulaire de Vergina dans les années 1950, nos connaissances sur les pratiques funéraires de l'âge du Fer en Grèce du Nord se sont profondément renouvelées. Si le tertre collectif demeure un trait caractéristique majeur, les nombreuses découvertes faites depuis une trentaine d'années témoignent en réalité d'une richesse et d'une grande diversité de pratiques et de types de tombes dans cette vaste région située entre les Balkans et l'Égée. À partir d'un catalogue de nécropoles datées entre le XIe et le VIIe siècle a.C., situées entre le versant oriental du Pinde et les Rhodopes sud-occidentaux, cet ouvrage propose un état de la question des modes funéraires tout en interrogeant cette diversité particulièrement remarquable. Ce travail permet d'établir une carte funéraire complexe qui sera comparée avec le mobilier abordé sous l'angle des thématiques et des idéologies funéraires dont la logique spatiale est différente.
