This is the first in-depth study of Chinese bridal laments, a ritual and performative art practiced by Chinese women in premodern times that gave them a rare opportunity to voice their grievances publicly. Drawing on methodologies from numerous disciplines, including performance arts and folk literatures, the author suggests that the ability to move an audience through her lament was one of the most important symbolic and ritual skills a Chinese woman could possess before the modern era.Performing Grief provides a detailed case study of the Nanhui region in the lower Yangzi delta. Bridal laments, the author argues, offer insights into how illiterate Chinese women understood the kinship and social hierarchies of their region, the marriage market that determined their destinies, and the value of their labor in the commodified economy of the delta region. The book not only assesses and draws upon a large body of sources, both Chinese and Western, but is grounded in actual field work, offering both historical and ethnographic context in a unique and sophisticated approach. Unlike previous studies, the author covers both Han and non-Han groups and thus contributes to studies of ethnicity and cultural accommodation in China. She presents an original view about the ritual implications of bridal laments and their role in popular notions of "wedding pollution." The volume includes an annotated translation from a lament cycle.This important work on the place of laments in Chinese culture enriches our understanding of the social and performative roles of Chinese women, the gendered nature of China's ritual culture, and the continuous transmission of women's grievance genres into the revolutionary period. As a pioneering study of the ritual and performance arts of Chinese women, it will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of anthropology, social history, gender studies, oral literature, comparative folk religion, and performance arts.

The distinctions and similarities among Roman, Jewish, and Christian burials can provide evidence of social networks, family life, and, perhaps, religious sensibilities. Is the Roman development from columbaria to catacombs the result of evolving religious identities or simply a matter of a change in burial fashions? Do the material remains from Jewish burials evidence an adherence to ancient customs, or the adaptation of rituals from surrounding cultures? What Greco-Roman funerary images were taken over and "baptized" as Christian ones? The answers to these and other questions require that the material culture be viewed, whenever possible, in situ, through multiple disciplinary lenses and in light of ancient texts. Roman historians (John Bodel, Richard Saller, Andrew Wallace-Hadrill), archaeologists (Susan Stevens, Amy Hirschfeld), scholars of rabbinic period Judaism (Deborah Green), Christian history (Robin M. Jensen), and the New Testament (David Balch, Laurie Brink, O.P., Margaret M. Mitchell, Carolyn Osiek, R.S.C.J.) engaged in a research trip to Rome and Tunisia to investigate imperial period burials first hand. Commemorting the Dead is the result of a three year scholarly conversation on their findings.

L’importance des rites dans les religions du monde romain est apparue de plus en plus fortement depuis vingt ans, et la nécessité de reconstituer dans le détail le plus précis les gestes du culte s’est imposée à tous. Dans la mesure ou les textes écrits sont incapables de donner ces détails, l’archéologie prend une importance nouvelle. Davantage que l’archéologie des temples, l’archéologie funéraire est précieuse pour ce type d’enquête, car les traces des gestes rituels y sont conservés en contexte primaire. Or l’archéologie funéraire a fait des progrès spectaculaires depuis vingt ans. Elle permet maintenant de saisir dans le détail les rites des funérailles aussi bien que les rites célébrés sur les tombes. Ce volume, qui a été réalisé dans le cadre d’un programme européen, présente un choix d’exemples recueillis en Italie du Nord, à Rome, à Pompéi, en France, au Luxembourg, en Suisse, en Allemagne et en Grande-Bretagne. Toutes ces études illustrent les percées méthodologiques réalisées sur le plan de la fouille et dans la gestion pluridisciplinaire de celle-ci. La collaboration étroite avec les anthropologues physiques, les archéozoologues et palynologues rend désormais possible la reconstitution des gestes funéraires.
