Exploring a range of authors including Agatha Christie, Patricia Wentworth, Val McDermid, Sarah Caudwell, Georgette Heyer, Dorothy Dunnett, Jonathan Stroud and Ben Aaronovitch, Lisa Hopkins argues that both the literal and literary disinterment of the past use elements of the national past to interrogate the present. As such, in the texts discussed, uncovering the truth about an individual crime is also typically an uncovering of a more general connection between the present and the past. Whether detective novels explore murders on archaeological digs, hauntings, cold crimes or killings at Christmas, Hopkins explores the underlying message that you cannot understand the present unless you understand the past.Crime Files,2947-8359Literature, Modern20th centuryLiterature, Modern21st centuryFictionEuropean literatureEuropean literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600EthnologyGreat BritainCultureMass media and crimeContemporary LiteratureFiction LiteratureEuropean LiteratureEarly Modern and Renaissance LiteratureBritish CultureCrime and the MediaLiterature, Modern20th century.Literature, Modern21st century.Fiction.European literature.European literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600.EthnologyGreat Britain.Culture.Mass media and crime.Contemporary Literature.Fiction Literature.European Literature.Early Modern and Renaissance Literature.British Culture.Crime and the Media.221.60901823.087209Hopkins Lisa518401MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483072903321Burial plots in british detective fiction2553035UNINA
