In the highly politicized memory space of postwar South Korea, many families have been deprived of their right to mourn loved ones lost in the Korean War. Only since the 1990s has the government begun to acknowledge the atrocities committed by South Korean and American troops that resulted inlarge numbers of civilian casualties. The Truth and Reconciliation Committee, new laws honoring victims, and construction of monuments and memorials have finally opened public spaces for mourning. In Right to Mourn, Suhi Choi explores this new context of remembering in which memories that have longbeen private are brought into official sites. As the generation that once carried these memories fades away, Choi poses an increasingly critical question: can a memorial communicate trauma and facilitate mourning?Through careful examination of recently built Korean War memorials (the Jeju April 3 Peace Park, the Memorial for the Gurye Victims of Yosun Killings, and the No Gun Ri Peace Park), Right to Mourn provokes readers to look at the nearly seven-decade-old war within the most updated context, and showshow suppressed trauma manifests at the transient interactions among bodies, objects, and rituals at the sites of these memorials.

Death is something we 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.We are living at a unique point in human history. People are living longer than ever, yet the longer we live, the more taboo and alien our mortality becomes. Yet we, and our loved ones, still remain mortal. People today still struggle with this fact, as we have done throughout our entire history. What led us to this point? What drove us to sanitize death and make it foreign and unfamiliar?Schillace shows how talking about death, and the rituals associated with it, can help provide answers. It also brings us closer together—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 much about the present—and about ourselves.

It's OK Not To Be OK: How To Cope With Grief and Anger After The Loss of A Loved One We live in a fast-paced, almost frantic world. Every day, we rush to work, we rush home, and we create timetables by which we live because there are simply not enough hours in a day. When you get sick, you get a few days off from work (if that), and you're expected to bounce back in a flash. When you break up with someone and feel like your world is crashing around you, the bosses don't care, and your friends tell you to forget about it and move on. So what happens when you have to go through the hardest experience in life - the loss of a loved one? Is there a timetable for mourning? Everyone who has ever lost someone will tell you that, sadly, there is. You are expected to bounce back after a certain time as if your emotions work like a button. This is simply the society we created, and sometimes, it backfires on us. But here's a piece of news to ease your mind and soul: no matter what society tells you, you have the right to mourn as long as you want, in any way you want. Grief isn't tangible, nor can it be measured or standardized. The best thing you can do is give yourself time. The second best thing you should do for yourself is to get to know your grief. Once you delve deep into it, once you get a grasp on all those emotions you're feeling, you'll be able to live with them, overcome some of them, and ultimately, move on. In Living With Loss, you'll discover: 8+ most common misconceptions about grief debunked and rationalized, to take away your guilt from not playing by society's rules The physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms of grief that will make you understand what both your body and mind are going through A guide through the 5 stages of grief to help you discover why you're feeling a certain way, as well as figure out how to get through it How and why the ancient wisdom of stoicism can ease your grieving process and change your outlook on life and death Why avoidance can be your biggest enemy, and how to stop avoiding your emotions while in mourning Solutions for dealing with anger, to help you understand the emotion and stop it from making you bitter and resentful How to use the Wim-Hof Method to work through your grief and bring balance back into your life And much more. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is usually what people think about when grief is mentioned. But grief has many faces. It can consume you when you lose your job, your faith, or when you go through a change in lifestyle. Whatever the reason, the heavy emotional state of grief needs to be worked on. So give yourself permission to mourn and take your time If you're determined not to let your grief consume you and take control over your life, then scroll up and click the "Add to Cart" button right now.

Few issues apply universally to people as poignantly as death and dying. All religions address concerns with death from the handling of human remains, to defining death, to suggesting what happens after life. The Routledge Companion to Death and Dying provides readers with an overview of the study of death and dying. Questions of death, mortality, and more recently of end-of-life care, have long been important ones and scholars from a range of fields have approached the topic in a number of ways. Comprising over fifty-two chapters from a team of international contributors, the companion covers: funerary and mourning practices; concepts of the afterlife; psychical issues associated with death and dying; clinical and ethical issues; philosophical issues; death and dying as represented in popular culture. This comprehensive collection of essays will bring together perspectives from fields as diverse as history, philosophy, literature, psychology, archaeology and religious studies, while including various religious traditions, including established religions like Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism as well as new or less widely known traditions such as the Spiritualist Movement, the Church of Latter Day Saints, and Raëlianism. The Routledge Companion to Death and Dying is essential reading for students and researchers in religious studies, philosophy and literature.

“A touching and provocative exploration of the latest research on animal minds and animal emotions” from the renowned anthropologist and author (The Washington Post). Scientists have long cautioned against anthropomorphizing animals, arguing that it limits our ability to truly comprehend the lives of other creatures. Recently, however, things have begun to shift in the other direction, and anthropologist Barbara J. King is at the forefront of that movement, arguing strenuously that we can—and should—attend to animal emotions. With How Animals Grieve, she draws our attention to the specific case of grief, and relates story after story—from fieldsites, farms, homes, and more—of animals mourning lost companions, mates, or friends. King tells of elephants surrounding their matriarch as she weakens and dies, and, in the following days, attending to her corpse as if holding a vigil. A housecat loses her sister, from whom she’s never before been parted, and spends weeks pacing the apartment, wailing plaintively. A baboon loses her daughter to a predator and sinks into grief. In each case, King uses her anthropological training to interpret and try to explain what we see—to help us understand this animal grief properly, as something neither the same as nor wholly different from the human experience of loss. The resulting book is both daring and down-to-earth, strikingly ambitious even as it’s careful to acknowledge the limits of our understanding. Through the moving stories she chronicles and analyzes so beautifully, King brings us closer to the animals with whom we share a planet, and helps us see our own experiences, attachments, and emotions as part of a larger web of life, death, love, and loss.
