Description
"If you want to learn abou the living-you study the dead" is a phrasse I often tell my students. Cultural geographers often visit cemeteries as a way to learn about the culture of a place. The rich ethnic heritage of Texas provides a greatr backdrop to carry out these sort of investigations. Using basic themes of human geography and necrogeography, which is the cultural study of burial practices, this course will take students into the realm of cemetery investigation.
