Necelial

Necelial refers to the study or qualities of death and the dead, although the term can be seen as a neologism with no widely recognized definition or application in current academic or cultural discourse.

Necelial concepts and studies have been explored in various forms of art, literature, and philosophy throughout history. For example, ancient cultures often had rich traditions of mourning and rituals honoring the dead. Similarly, literary works and philosophical treatises have examined the human experience of mortality and the significance of death in shaping human culture and individual identity.

One aspect of necelial inquiry pertains to the relationship between death and the living. Scholars have investigated how societies construct and manage the boundaries between life and death, and the various practices, beliefs, and rituals that come to define the meaning and significance of death within a given culture or community.

Another area of study involves the material and physical aspects of death, such as the Anthropocene's unique formulation of the rapport between human culture and death, elements of decomposition, and the physical structures and remains that comprise a necropolis.

In the modern era, necelial themes continue to pervade literature, film, art, and philosophy, often serving as a conduit for dealing with existential anxieties and the human condition. However, broader, established academic traditions or standardized disciplines with the necelial label have yet to be coalesced or widely recognized.
