Zusammenfassung

Much of the literature speaks of healthy bereavement as letting go of the deceased and moving forward with life. This title challenges that notion, discussing the meaning attributed to death and to the anticipation of death. It looks at the ways in which one's relationship with loved ones continues, endures, and perhaps even grows after death.

Remember Me Zusammenfassung

Remember Me: Constructing Immortality - Beliefs on Immortality, Life, and Death Margaret Mitchell (Edith Cowan University)

Remember Me brings together contributors from around the world with unique insight on the ways in which one's relationship with loved ones continues, endures, and perhaps even grows after death.

Much of the available literature speaks of healthy bereavement as letting go of the deceased and moving forward with life. This new text challenges that notion, discussing the meaning attributed to death and to the anticipation of death.

The living, as presented in these innovative chapters, construct social entities of those who have died, via the carrying out of wishes in the Will; pursuing legal claims; or simply attributing certain desires, emotions, or choices to the deceased reconstitutes them as active, even vital, voices even after biological death. Just as life itself, the end of life and death is an interdisciplinary matter. A clear psychological theme and focus ties together these perspectives under three conceptual areas: the anticipation of death; the social life of the deceased and the legal embodiment of the deceased.

Remember Me Bewertungen

The more I got into the books, the more fascinating it became...informative and thought-provoking. The strange quality of the book is summed up for me by the fact that the namesakes of both authors of 'Dark Tourism' have death sites that draw visitors many years after their death-Margaret Mitchell and John Lennon. I highly recommend this book, possibly more for those who work existentially, or those prepared to explore 'outside of the box'. ---Angela Cooper, Psychotherapist
