| | Posthumous name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The use of posthumous names was stopped in the Qin Dynasty, because Qin Shi Huang proclaimed that it is disrespectful for the descendants, or "later emperors" (嗣皇帝) to judge their elders, or the "prior emperors" (先帝). | | | Even though he was never emperor, Sima Zhao was given the posthumous name of Emperor Wen of Jin. | | | "Filial" is also used in the full posthumous names of virtually all emperors of Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties. |

| | THE CONTEMPORARY AND THE POSTHUMOUS |
| | These long spaces between the first articulation of a discourse and its later reception and realization are what is meant by the terms of the contemporary and the posthumous. | | | My particular focus on spaces between discourses and between cultures will be that of the contemporary and the posthumous. | | | Whereas these and other institutional and disciplinary aspects of Romanticism became part of the cultural life of the nineteenth century, the critical theory or the philosophy or the humanistic discourse of Early Romanticism remained a matter of contention for a long time and was perhaps not recognized in all its radicalness until very recently. |

| | Posthumous execution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In Christian countries until relatively recently, it was believed that to rise on judgement day the body had to be whole and preferably buried with the feet to the east so that the person would rise facing God. | | | It follows that if one believes dismemberment stopped the possibility of resurrection on judgement day, then a posthumous execution is an effective way of punishing a criminal. | | | Attitudes towards this issue changed very slowly in Britain and was not manifested in law until the passing of the Anatomy Act in 1832. |
