"Aberrations of Mourning," originally published in 1988, is the
long unavailable first book in Laurence A. Rickels's "unmourning"
trilogy, followed by "The Case of California" and "Nazi
Psychoanalysis."
Rickels studies mourning and melancholia within and around
psychoanalysis, analyzing the writings of such thinkers as Freud,
Nietzsche, Lessing, Heinse, Artaud, Keller, Stifter, Kafka, and
Kraus. Rickels maintains that we must shift the way we read
literature, philosophy, and psychoanalysis to go beyond traditional
Oedipal structures.
"Aberrations of Mourning" argues that the idea of the crypt has had
a surprisingly potent influence on psychoanalysis, and Rickels
shows how society's disturbed relationship with death and dying,
our inability to let go of loved ones, has resulted in technology
to form more and more crypts for the dead by preserving them--both
physically and psychologically--in new ways.
