520			_aThis article is based on a sociological survey recently carried out within the undertaking business in France, and examines how the undertaker’s body becomes involved in the technical and relational dimensions of their daily work. In the staging and carrying out of everyday tasks, the undertaker’s body first appears as an object for socialisation and the carrying out of precise professional tasks. Yet due to the sensitive nature of their activity, undertakers are also subjected to highly charged emotional experiences and are sometimes obliged to adapt themselves very quickly to specific circumstances. They must know how to reconcile behavioural instructions with the sensitiveness of their nature. Although produced on an individual level, this reconciliation, as an emotional process, is the object of regulations and collective procedures offering inherent explanations and which may be understood from the historical, social and cultural standpoint of funereal rites.
