The Privation of Christian Burial: An Historical Synopsis and Commentary by Charles A. Kerin is a comprehensive book that explores the topic of Christian burial throughout history. The book delves into the various reasons why individuals were deprived of a Christian burial, such as excommunication, suicide, and criminal activity. Kerin provides a detailed analysis of the historical context surrounding each case, including the religious and cultural beliefs of the time. The book also examines the role of the Church in regulating Christian burial and the impact of various religious and political movements on this practice. The author offers a critical commentary on the topic, discussing the ethical implications of denying someone a Christian burial and the ways in which this practice has evolved over time. Additionally, the book includes case studies of notable individuals who were deprived of a Christian burial, such as Galileo Galilei and Dante Alighieri. Overall, The Privation of Christian Burial is a thought-provoking and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, burial practices, and the intersection of religion and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
