Forests of the Afterlife
Turkey's myriad traditions of funerary folk art are as intriguing as they are under-studied. This book documents hundreds of extraordinary, mostly tree-themed works of folk art from the cemeteries of the Bodrum-Milas peninsula in Southwestern Turkey. Alongside this rich visual archive, this book also features an overview of funerary folk art throughout Turkey; the categories and symbolism of the artefacts surveyed; and a brief collection of tree-related folklore from the surrounding areas.
