History, A new conversation is starting on this most universal of topics. But to know where we are heading, we need to know where we have come from... Death is the one subject we will all confront; it touches our families, our homes, our hearts. And yet we have grown used to denying its existence, treating it as an enemy to be beaten back with medical advances. What led us to this point - what drove us to sanitize death and make it foreign and unfamiliar? In Death's Summer Coat Brandy Schillace explores our past to examine what it might mean for our future. From Victorian Britain to contemporary Cambodia, forgotten customs and modern-day rituals, we learn about the incredibly diverse - and sometimes just incredible - ways in which humans have dealt with mortality in different times and places. Today, as we begin to talk about mortality, there are difficult questions to face. What does it mean to have a 'good death'? What should a funeral do? As Schillace shows, talking about death and the rituals associated with it can help to provide answers. It also brings us closer together. And conversation and community are just as important for living as for dying. Some of the stories are strikingly unfamiliar; others are far more familiar than you might suppose. But all reveal a lot about the present - and about ourselves. It's time to meet the new (old) death . It's time to meet the new (old) death. As seen reviewed in The Guardian in the article Smoke Gets in Your Eyes by Caitlin Doughty review - startling stories from the crematorium, eBook.

EN NWISBN: 9781783960408 bzw. 178396040X, in Englisch, Elliott & Thompson Limited, neu.
Lieferung aus: Vereinigtes Königreich Großbritannien und Nordirland, in-stock.
Though death is the one subject that touches every life, we've grown used to denying its existence, and treating it as an enemy to be beaten back wherever possible but what drove us to that point?Consideration of death and dying is back in the public forum. People are sipping tea at Death Cafés, attending Death Salons and visiting exhibitions such as Death: A Self-Portrait at the Wellcome Collection. Death s Summer Coat addresses this surge of interest by providing a compelling crossover narrative: of interest to a general audience, but also to those who are grieving. How can we approach death in a culture dead-set against talking about mortality? Written with humor and humanity, this is an informed and up-to-date work that uses personal narrative and photography, science, history, and literature to explore the incredibly diverse and sometimes just incredible ways in which humans have dealt with mortality in different times and places. Topics include: how we conceive of death; death and the departed across the globe; the language of death and why it matters; the Victorians; medical science and preservation; death and medical care; and modern-day rituals. Some of the stories are strikingly unfamiliar; others are far more familiar than you might suppose. But all reveal a lot about the present and about ourselves.
