Death and grief have often elicited the response of creativity,
from elegies and requiems to memorial architecture. Such artistic
expressions of grief form the focus of Grief, Identity, and the
Arts, which brings together scholars from the disciplines of
musicology, literature, sociology, film studies, social work, and
museum studies. While presenting one or more case studies from a
range of artistic disciplines, historical periods, or geographical
areas, each chapter addresses the interdependence of grief and
identity in the arts. The volume as a whole shows how artistic
expressions of grief are both influenced by and contribute to
constructions of religious, national, familial, social, and
artistic identities. Contributors to this volume: Tammy Clewell,
Lizet Duyvendak, David Gist, Maryam Haiawi, Owen Hansen, Maggie
Jackson, Christoph Jedan, Bram Lambrecht, Carlo Leo, Wolfgang Marx,
Tijl Nuyts, Despoina Papastathi, Julia Placzkiewicz, Bavjola
Shatro, Caroline Supply, Nicolette van den Bogerd, Eric Venbrux,
Janneke Weijermars, Miriam Wendling, and Mariske Westendorp.
