Over Her Dead Body: Death, Femininity and the Aesthetic
Elisabeth Bronfen
The argument that this book presents is that narrative and visual representations of death can be read as symptoms of our culture and because the feminine body is culturally constructed as the superlative site of "other" and "not me", culture uses art to dream the deaths of beautiful women. -- .
