Описание: Someone dies. What happens next?One family inters their matriarch’s ashes on the floor of the ocean. Another holds a memorial weenie roast each year at a greenburial cemetery. An 1898 ad for embalming fluid promises, “You can make mummies with it!” while a leading contemporary burial vault is touted as impervious to the elements. A grieving mother, 150 years ago, might spend her days tending a garden at her daughter’s grave. Today, she might tend the roadside memorial she erected at the spot her daughter was killed. One mother wears a locket containing her daughter’s hair; the other, a necklace containing her ashes.What happens after someone dies depends on our personal stories and on where those stories fall in a larger tale - that of death in America. It’s a powerful tale that we usually keep hidden from our everyday lives until we have to face it.American Afterlife by Kate Sweeney reveals this world through a collective portrait of Americans past and present who find themselves personally involved with death: a klatch of obit writers in the desert, a funeral voyage on the Atlantic, a fourth-generation funeral director - even a midwestern museum that takes us back in time to meet our deathobsessed Victorian progenitors. Each story illuminates details in another until something larger is revealed: a landscape that feels at once strange and familiar, one that’s by turns odd, tragic, poignant, and sometimes even funny.

Описание: Drawing on a range of material, the book demonstrates just how much death matters in wartime - not just to the individual, threatened with their own death, or the death of loved ones, but to the state, tasked with managing the deaths of its citizens in conflict. -- .

Описание: This book of poems is all about love, in all its flavors. Love for the sweetheart, love for spouse, love for parents, love for siblings, love for friends, love for God, love for nature, love for country and above all, love for life. The poems of BhupatiDas depict various visuals of life and carry soft notes of love-waves. His stark simplicity, fluidity in tone and felicity with words come out vividly in these poems. After a long journey of mythically exploring the love and beauty of life, Bhupati has reached a point where his writings reveal a profound understanding of life and human relationships. They reflect everything from the way a

Описание: Written by luminaries who have shaped the field, this capstone book distills the collective wisdom of foremost scholars and practitioners, who together have nearly a millennium of experience in the death and dying movement. The book bears witness to the discipline's evolution and presents the insights of its pioneers, eyewitnesses, and major contributors past and present. They address contemporary institutional developments in hospice and palliative care, funeral practice, and death education. They discuss best practices in care of the dying and bereaved and contemporary thinking in thanatology.With a breadth and depth found in no other text on death, dying, and bereavement, the book disseminates the thinking of such scholars as William Worden, David Clark, Tony Walter, Robert Neimeyer, Charles Corr, Stephen Connor, Phyllis Silverman, Betty Davies, Terrie Rando, Colin Murray Parkes, Kenneth Doka, Allan Kellehear, and others. To underscore the three broad ranges of development in the movement, the book first focuses on the interdisciplinary intellectual achievements that have formed the foundation of the field. The section on institutional innovations encompasses contributions in hospice and palliative care of the dying and their families; suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention; funeral service; and university-based death education. The final third of the book addresses spiritual support, using the arts and humanities, grief counseling across the lifespan, community-based mutual support groups, and future developments that promise to sustain, further enrich, and strengthen the discipline. Also included is a detailed guide to further, in-depth reading in the field.Key Features:Distills the wisdom of pioneers and foremost luminaries in the field of death, dying, and bereavementIncludes living witness accounts of the movement's evolution and important milestonesPresents the best contemporary thinking in thanatologyDescribes contemporary institutional developments in hospice and palliative care, funeral practice, and death educationIlluminates best practices in care of the dying, bereaved, and traumatized
