My dissertation was on funeral practices in the CoS since the Reformation... and Barth was light relief! Like the sound of the death course, got interested in death while doing Doctrine of God in Junior Honours and I wanted my dissertation to be on the theology of death, dying and funerals... but couldn't find someone to supervise. Instead I did a historical survey of funeral practice/liturgy which was far more interesting than I thought it would be (but I could just be very sad). I really enjoyed the year - hope you do too.
