Eric Venbrux is a Professor of Comparative Religious Studies at Radboud University. He has a long-standing interest in how people deal with death, which reveals what they consider important in life. Venbrux has conducted extensive anthropological fieldwork among the Tiwi people in Australia, as well as in Switzerland and the Netherlands. His research has focused on mortuary rituals and the various cultural significances tied to them.
