This volume brings together a wide array of papers which explore,
among other things, to what extent languages and cultures are
variable with respect to the interactions around the event of
death. Motivated by J. L. Mey's idea of the pragmeme, a situated
speech act, the volume has both theoretical and practical
implications for scholars working in different fields of enquiry.
As the papers in this volume reveal, despite the terminological
differences between various disciplines, the interactions around
the event of death serve to provide solace, not only to the dying,
but also to the family and friends of the deceased, thus helping
them to "accommodate" to the new state of affairs.
