This book reveals the workings of a culture that cherished death, and invested its resources in the pursuit of heaven. This is the first fulllength study of Spanish attitudes toward death and the afterlife in the peak years of the CounterReformation. It contains an analysis of the death rituals requested in hundreds of sixteenthcentury Madrid testaments, as well as a detailed account of the ways in which the 'good' deaths of King Philip II and Saint Teresa of Avila were interpreted by contemporaries.
