This group is for anyone engaged in researching death and culture, hosted by Professor Ruth Penfold-Mounce and Dr. Bethan Michael-Fox of the Death and Culture Network (DaCNet). Find out more about DaCNet at https://www.york.ac.uk/sociology/research/death-and-culture/
You might be researching death in/and film, television, graphic novels, podcasting, video games, material culture (graves, cemeteries, mummies...) or anything else that falls into the realm of death and culture. All researchers are welcome regardless of status, stage or discipline.
In the group meetings we will introduce ourselves and discuss our research interests, have the opportunity to ask questions, discuss processes and experiences of researching death and popular culture, and share news of conferences and calls for papers.
The meetings will be friendly and informal. You can join our JISCmail mailing list to share and receive relevant updates, calls for papers and more.
The group will meet every six weeks. Please feel welcome to bring your own tea, coffee and cake etc. and we look forward to seeing you there! To find out more about the hosts check out the links below.
