This is a past event
This multi-disciplinary conference aims to connect academics and practitioners to share insights and ideas across a range of topics, periods and perspectives relating to death and Scotland.
It is intended to facilitate learning from recent and current research and to stimulate further research, including by supporting the development of new connections and networks between people working in different academic disciplines and areas of policy and practice.
Keynote speakers are Dr Naomi Richards (University of Glasgow) who will talk about 'Assisted dying: a new dying aesthetic' and Prof Michael Brown (University of Aberdeen), who will talk about ‘Narrating the Aberdeen Poltergeist of 1920’ 'Life after death in Scotland: eighteenth century folk stories and the rise of the gothic'.
That is just a taster of the topics we will enjoy hearing about and discussing during this two-day online conference! The programme is now available on the event website.
