Summary |
"Culture, Consolation, and Continuing Bonds in Bereavement presents Dennis Klass's most important contributions to the scholarship of grief and bereavement. Journal articles, book chapters, and previously unpublished speeches cover more than forty years of study and practice on the forefront our understanding of individual, family, and community grief. The writings range widely, including explorations of grief that were missing when Klass began his work, studies of grief across different cultures, and critical analyses of theories that were popular in grief scholarship but inadequately described bereaved parents' experiences. The book ends with a previously unpublished case study of Charles Darwin, whose experience as a bereaved parent informed the worldview at the heart of his theory of natural selection. This collection of essays offers an integral understanding of how individuals move through grief and is a valuable addition to the library of anyone working with topics relevant to grieving adults, children, and adolescents"-- Provided by publisher. |
