Symbolic Loss: The Ambiguity of Mourning and Memory at Century's End the Ambiguity of Mourning and Memory at Century's End: Studies in Religion and Culture
Autor James S. Hans Julia Stern Editat de Peter Homansen Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2000 – vârsta de la 22 ani
Historically, many world cultures have linked three disparate phenomena: collective loss; mourning; and the construction of monuments and cultural symbols to represent the loss over time and render it memorable, meaningful, and thereby bearable. In a century of great loss, observers of western culture have commented on the decline of mourning practices and the absence of their associated rituals. The ten essays assembled here by Peter Homans represent, in a genuinely interdisciplinary way, the recent work of scholars attempting to understand this trend. Arranged in sections on cultural studies, architecture, history, and psychology, this accessible collection can serve as an introduction to the uses of mourning in contemporary cultures.
