Death-Personification, The Practice Examined

In this thought-provoking examination of the practice of personifying death in art and literature, James Cooper asks why we find it so compelling to represent the end of life in this way. Through a range of examples and analysis, Cooper explores the cultural and psychological roots of this phenomenon and offers insights into why we fear and admire death in equal measure.
