La Faune des cadavres: Application de l'entomologie à la médecine légale (De Natura Rerum, 9) (French Edition) - Softcover
Produced to honor Gregory L. Freeze on the occasion of his 70th birthday, this book is the work of students and close associates who have been his collaborators or mentees in research and teaching. The essays published here - one in German, three in Russian, and eight in English - cover concrete questions of church history and broader historical problems that cannot be understood without reference to the Church. All illustrate the technical rigor and document-driven knowledge that characterize Professor Freeze's research and teaching. Topics of study include the problem of Russian ""backwardness"" in relation to ""multiple modernities,"" the relationship of church intellectuals to philosophical and theological developments in modern Europe, Church responses to cultural and institutional change, ongoing obstacles to reform of the Church, the socioeconomic condition of the clergy, the institutional authority of female religious, the spiritual lives of humble women, and the religious diversity of the empire represented by Jewish converts, the ""Jewish Question"" in Russian politics, and Old Believer and Ukrainian identities. The volume also contains a critical analysis of Freeze's scholarly oeuvre and a bibliography of his major works.
Addressing broad patterns of Russian historical development from the 18th to the 20th century, the authors highlight how the Orthodox Church adapted to the socioeconomic, cultural, and political pluralism that gave birth to the modern world.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the first half of this ground-breaking treatise, entomologist Jean-Pierre Megnin (1828-1905) provides an easily accessible summary of fifteen years of studies on the dating of a subject's death based on observation of the latter's cadaver, which numerous insect "squads" have visited at regular successive intervals. We thus follow, along with the author, the main phases of the invasion and destruction of the host by its "guests." Such phases are enlightening from the dual vantage point of zoology and forensic science. The second half of the book includes nineteen forensic observations made by the author and a few other naturalists, which constitute excellent application examples. The book is illustrated with a dozen watercolors painted by Xavier Carteret as part of our edition. Jean-Pierre Megnin (1828-1905), a French veterinarian and entomologist, specialises in the observation of necrophagous insects, the study of which makes it possible to date a subject's death. He became President of the Entomological Society of France in 1879 and a member of the French Academy of Medicine in 1893. He also headed the Zoological Society of London in 1885. His notable works published between 1880 and 1906 include: Maladies parasitaires chez l'homme et les animaux domestiques, Les Insectes buveurs de sang and La Faune des tombeaux, prelude to the present work.
