Dilaceratio Corporis is a collection edited by Nicolas Delestre under the editorial responsibility of Laurence Loutre-Barbier. Funeral Rites of Judaism presents the rites of Judaism, which in contemporary times includes several main currents: Orthodox, Traditionalist, Reform, or Liberal. Certain very ancient prescriptions concerning the death of a loved one continue to be respected: burial and not cremation, a very short time between death and burial, use of a hevra qaddisha, simplicity of the coffin and burial, tearing of a garment of those directly in mourning, and recitation of the Qaddish* before the grave. Jewish funeral rites ignore embalming and exposure of the deceased. Patricia Hidiroglou, professor emeritus of history and anthropology of the Jewish world at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, is the author of numerous articles and books on religious and cultural anthropology.
