De aarde is de onderwereld, het dodenrijk, de hel, in bijna alle culturen van de wereld. In het aardedonker worden wij bang en denken aan de dood. En toch zit er zoveel moois in de ondergrond: glinsterende ertsen en metalen, prachtige gele zwavelkorsten, meterslange vlijmscherpe gipskristallen, druipsteengrotten, tere schelpjes uit het begin van de evolutie en reusachtige botten van uitgestorven monsters. Salomon Kroonenberg doet met hamer en kompas geologisch veldwerk in de hel, in het spoor van de Bijbel, Homerus, Vergilius, Dante, Da Vinci, Descartes, Jules Verne en de moderne wetenschap, in elk hoofdstuk weer een stukje dieper. Hij laat ons zien dat de aarde haar eigen geschiedenisboek is. Zo leren we dat we de ondergrond niet langer moeten zien als een black box om tunnels in te graven, als een supermarkt voor grondstoffen, als een tapijt om afval onder te vegen, of als laatste rustplaats voor de doden, maar veeleer als een onvervangbaar archief, en als een levend ecoxysteem waarvan we nog maar nauwelijks de rijkdom hebben kunnen peilen.

This book examines life after death and changing concepts of heaven and hell in English thought from 1650 to 1750. It explores seventeenth- and eighteenth-century images of the journey of body and soul, from Platonist accounts of pre-existence, the final judgement and beyond into heaven or hell. It discloses a society in which frail and fleeting human life was lived out in the expectation of salvation or damnation, of eternal happiness or eternal torment, of heaven or hell and depicts a world radically different from our own. Drawing on the writings not only of the elite but also of the middling and lower classes, Almond shows how there hovered around images of the afterlife many classical and contemporary debate: free will and predestination, materialism and dualism, religion and science, Catholicism and Protestantism, religious and political radicalism, demonology and witchcraft and so on. The picture which emerges is both representative of the age as a whole and enables us to appreciate more fully contemporary understandings of the meaning of human life and death.
