The conjuction of death, art and femininity forms a rich and disturbing strata of Western culture, explored here in fascinating detail by Elisabeth Bronfen. Her examples range from Carmen to Little Nell, from Wuthering Heights to Vertigo, from Snow White to Frankenstein. The text is richly illustrated throughout with thirty-seven paintings and photographs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elisabeth Bronfen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719038278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719038273\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.97d","brand":"Elisabeth Bronfen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988843561215,"sku":"9780719038273","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e860b6c2-080c-4fd1-9b3d-5c1dac52349b.jpg?v=1683296695","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/over-her-dead-body-elisabeth-bronfen-9780719038273","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
