This innovative volume examines the phenomenological, existential
and cultural dimensions of grief experiences. It draws on
perspectives from philosophy, psychology and sociocultural studies
to focus on the experiential dimension of grief, moving beyond
understanding from a purely mental health and psychiatry
perspective. The book considers individual, shared and collective
experiences of loss. Chapters explore the intersections between the
profound existential experiences of bereavement and how this is
mediated by sociocultural norms and practices. It points to new
directions for the future conceptualization and study of grief,
particularly in the experiential dimension. Drawing on a range of
interdisciplinary perspectives, this important book will appeal to
academics, researchers and students in the fields of death and
bereavement studies, wellbeing and mental health, philosophy and
phenomenological studies.
