Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welche Rolle spielen Trauer- und Abschiedsrituale in unserer Zeit und wie können wir Räume schaffen, in denen sich Kunst, Fürsorge und Rituale begegnen? Die Kuratorin Barbara Raes hat 2020 bereits zum zweiten Mal auf Einladung des internationalen Produktionshauses HAU Hebbel am Ufer mit Berliner Künstler:innen zu diesen Fragen recherchiert. In dem Versuch, einen unbefangenen Zugang zu diesen Themen zu schaffen und damit ein gesellschaftliches Tabu zu brechen, sind neun sehr persönliche Arbeiten rund ums Abschiednehmen entstanden, die dieses Buch dokumentiert – mit Beiträgen von Olympia Bukkakis, Dragana Bulut, Nuray Demir, Mmakgosi Kgabi, Ania Nowak, Barbara Raes, Falk Rößler, Liz Rosenfeld, Colin Self, Joana Tischkau, Enis Turan. How do rituals of mourning and letting go play a role in our world today, and can they mingle and fuse with the arts and issues of care, if we create the right spaces? At the invitation of the international production house HAU Hebbel am Ufer, curator Barbara Raes has ex- plored these questions in collaboration with Berlin-based artists for the second time. The endeavour to forge an uninhibited approach to grief and so break a social taboo provoked nine highly personal pieces of work on the broader ramifications of (unacknowledged) loss, which this book now documents – with contributions by artists Olympia Bukkakis, Dragana Bulut, Nuray Demir, Mmakgosi Kgabi, Ania Nowak, Barbara Raes, Falk Rößler, Liz Rosenfeld, Colin Self, Joana Tischkau and Enis Turan.

Die Kuratorin Barbara Raes beschäftigt sich in ihrer Praxis mit der Wiederbelebung und Neuentwicklung von Übergangsritualen. Wie können wir den Umgang mit Trauer und Verlust neu lernen? Auf Einladung des internationalen Produktionshauses HAU Hebbel am Ufer in Berlin hat Barbara Raes gemeinsam mit Berliner Künstlerinnen und Künstlern intensiv zu dieser Frage recherchiert. Daraus sind acht persönliche Arbeiten rund ums Abschiednehmen entstanden, die 2017 im HAU zu sehen waren.

Book Grief Is a Journey

Download or read book Grief Is a Journey written by Kenneth J. Doka and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doka explores a new, compassionate way to grieve as he explains that grief is not an illness to get over but an individual and ongoing journey. He upends the dominant but incorrect view that grief proceeds by stages, and helps us realize that our experiences following a death are far more individual and much less predictable than the conventional "five stages" model would have us believe. Doka also explains how to cope with disenfranchised grief, not so readily recognized or supported by society, such as the death of ex-spouses, the end of a friendship, job loss, or infertility.

Book Memorializing the Past

Download or read book Memorializing the Past written by Heidi Grunebaum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a meditation on the shaping of time and its impact on living with and understanding atrocity in South Africa in the wake of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). It is an examination of the ways that the institutionalization of memory has managed perceptions of time and transition, of events and happenings, of sense and emotion, of violence and recovery, of the past and the new. Through this process a public language of memory has been carved into collective modes of meaning. It is a language that seems deprived of the hopes, dreams, and possibilities for the promise of a just and redemptive future it once nurtured.Truth commissions are profoundly implicated in the social politics of memorialization. Memory, as a conceptual, historical, and experiential discourse about the past, relates to the ways in which cruelty is integrated into societal understandings, which include cognitive and philosophic frameworks and constructions of social meaning. The politics of historical truth, of memory and of justice, play out in unintended ways. There is not only the ongoing struggle for survivors of state terror, but also the ways that the everyday shapings of silences, the emptiness of reconciliation and the fracturing of hope remain embedded in political life.

Book Sustaining Persons  Grieving Losses

Download or read book Sustaining Persons Grieving Losses written by Dianne Crowther and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia presents a significant social issue in a hyper-cognitive culture where stigma, relational neglect, and isolation still accompany forgetfulness. This raises serious theological, ecclesiological, and pastoral questions calling for a Christian response. To fight against a malignant social positioning of anyone as an "an empty shell" is crucial; nonetheless, there is another pressing reality, the reality of ongoing loss. Often the focus is on one or the other side: affirming personhood or acknowledging loss and grief. Spiritual caregiving and Christian pastoral caregiving are uniquely placed to offer both sustaining relationship and grief support to both caregivers and persons with dementia. This pastoral approach emerges from cultural scholarship, rigorous on-the-ground research, and theological reflection on God's purposes in responding to persons in and beyond the Christian community. Christian communities are called to be places of agape love, compassion, and hospitality. We, individually and corporately, are called to care: to love, honor, value, comfort, and sustain one another--and "one another" includes those who travel the road of forgetting and those who travel with them. This fresh pastoral approach offers theologically and culturally informed, practical ways of sustaining persons in the midst of their losses, throughout the dementia journey.

Book Pastoral Care for Survivors of a Traumatic Death

Download or read book Pastoral Care for Survivors of a Traumatic Death written by Jeonghyun Park and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern life has led to an increase in traumatic deaths, such as accidents, murders, suicide, and other types of unanticipated, violent death. Family members and friends grieving a traumatic death face enormous shock, numbness, and despair, as well as the need to find hope and God's mercy and grace in the midst of chaos, difficult questions, and confusion. The Christian church and faith community often do not provide appropriate pastoral care to help the bereaved overcome their despair. Jeonghyun Park explores the unique characteristics and dynamics of traumatic grief, or grief in response to traumatic death, and present several approaches to pastoral care. The survivors of a traumatic death are likely to ask pastors spiritually despairing and tough questions, such as, Where is God in this tragic death? If we have to accept this new reality, where can we find God's grace and mercy, power, and justice? Pastors and other spiritual leaders can provide comfort to the loved ones of victims of traumatic death by assisting them with their questions concerning a "helpless God" and a "cruel God." This book offers new insights through specific pastoral care models and guidance for families needing healing, recovery, and meaningful rituals.

  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2017-01-04
  • ISBN : 1442258187
  • Pages : 194 pages

Download or read book Subjective Darkness written by Meredith Lynn Friedson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-01-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, depression is explored as a form of loss that manifests itself as an inability to connect with others, to narrate one’s own existence, to derive meaning from life experiences, and ultimately, to symbolically represent one’s inner world. This loss has the capacity to evolve into a chronic condition that can be seen as a form of subjective darkness. A hermeneutic, interpretative phenomenological approach is used that seeks to preserve the individual voices of each narrative, while embedding their stories in theoretical and current literature on depression. The clinical cases of five individuals are used to elucidate some common characteristics of depressive experience. Themes of loss, death, darkness, the intergenerational transmission of trauma, and unmetabolized pain are explored through a psychoanalytic lens that seeks to shed light on the underlying dynamics of chronic depression.
