thetimes.co.uk - The grave was once the final resting place. It has long been thought that interrupting the dead is a form of desecration but that is no longer true. Modern techniques of investigation mean we can now respectfully learn a great deal from the bones of the deceased.
More has been learnt of the lives of Miguel de Cervantes and Pablo Neruda from exhuming their remains and subjecting them to DNA tests. It is hardly a controversial judgment to say that this country’s greatest writer is the greatest of them all.
