| Summary: | "This innovative volume on the mourning process, burial rites and intimations of immortality offers diverse Jungian, cross cultural, interdisciplinary, depth psychological perspectives, written predominantly by graduates and candidates of the CG Jung Institute Zürich. The themes of this book are particularly relevant as they relate to the Covid-19 pandemic and other environmental disasters, when so many people die without a proper burial and are, thus, not properly commemorated with their status value. The contributors cover a wide range of subjects from their clinical observations: attached grief and loss in the prolonged mourning process, the meaning behind burial rites in cyclical and linear temporalities, and an analysis of why certain dead are excluded from becoming ancestors. Unconscious processes such as dreams, archetypes, and cultural complexes from the personal and collective unconscious are also presented and explored. This collection will be of great interest to interdisciplinary academic researchers, Jungian analysts and students, psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, anthropologists, cultural theorists and students interested in the mourning process, rites of passage, past and present burial practices, and the imaginative, symbolic significance of the land of the dead"-- |
