Abstract:
Designers increasingly are exploring how to support individuals transitioning through loss and grief and coming to terms with a loved one's death. For people living with dementia and their families, the loss and grief they experience is iterative and ongoing. This paper discusses design research to make sensory textile objects for people with advanced dementia, intended to support positive well-being, shared experiences, and “in the moment” pleasure. It draws on theories relating to transitional and transformational objects to show how these textiles support those living with dementia as they transition into greater dependency and move toward the end of life. It shows how, after their death, the objects become memorials and symbolic representations, further supporting family members through their experience of loss.

Abstract:
This article adopts an in-depth clinical perspective based on the theoretical framework of grief in order to examine individuals’ reactions following psychological contract violation over a period of 12 months. By focusing on emotional intra-psychic phenomena our study provides evidence of the enduring effects of psychological contract violation on individuals and the employment relationship. We conducted a total of 60 interviews among 11 managers of a temporary employment agency that has implemented a series of organizational changes, mainly related to restructuring and downsizing decisions. The 11 managers interviewed have been chosen after having reported in a short survey that they experienced a psychological contract violation at work. Our results indicate that psychological contract violation triggers the subject into a grief process only when violation deprives the individual from a highly invested object at work. In these circumstances, the grief process lasts longer than we originally expected since, over 12 months, we were unable to observe the grief process in its entirety among our participants. We also find that the grief process may be accelerated or stopped according to the capacity of the organization and the individual to offer new objects that satisfy the individual’s needs and thus may help the person mourn the loss experienced as a result of the violation. Finally, our results show that the grief process deeply alters the employment relationship and modifies the amount and intensity of energy that the participants of our study devote to their work.

Abstract:
This paper points to a more expansive conception of grief by arguing that the losses of illness can be genuine objects of grief. I argue for this by illuminating underappreciated structural features of typical grief — that is, grief over a bereavement — which are shared but under-recognized. I offer a common chronic illness, chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME), as a striking case study. I then use this analysis to highlight some clinical challenges that arise should this claim receive uptake in clinical practice. Extant literature on CFS/ME tells us that rates of comorbid depression are atypically high. If one accepts that people with CFS/ ME can grieve over losses associated with the condition, and that grief can be easily mistaken for depression in this context, this might suggest that rates of comorbid depression are inflated. I show, however, that the challenge of distinguishing between healthy and pathological grief arises in its place, and is just as tricky to solve.

Abstract:
In recent years, human scientists have generalized the so-called hypothesis of the extended mind to human emotional life. The extended mind hypothesis states that objects within the environment function as a part of the mind and are centrally involved in cognition. Some emotion researchers have argued along these lines that there are bodily extended emotions, and (more controversially) environmentally extended emotions. In this article, we will first briefly introduce the idea of the extended mind and extended emotions before applying it to the emotion of grief specifically. We explain by introducing the notion of a cultural affective niche within which grief is scaffolded and enacted. An affective niche couples the person and the environment and enables the realization of affective states.

Abstract:
Two distinct spatial metaphors for the passage of time can produce disparate judgments about grieving. Under the object-moving metaphor, time seems to move past stationary people, like objects floating past people along a riverbank. Under the people-moving metaphor, time is stationary; people move through time as though they journey on a one-way street, past stationary objects. The people-moving metaphor should encourage the forecast of shorter grieving periods relative to the object-moving metaphor. In the present study, participants either received an object-moving or people-moving prime, then read a brief vignette about a mother whose young son died. Participants made affective forecasts about the mother’s grief intensity and duration, and provided open-ended inferences regarding a return to relative normalcy. Findings support predictions, and are discussed with respect to interpersonal communication and everyday life.

Abstract:
AbstractIt may be unusual to think of the Gospels as grief work, because these documents purport to be about the resurrected and living Jesus. However, once the four canonical Gospels are interpreted from this vantage-point, many typical features of grief work and a complex development from the earliest written document to the later ones can be observed. On what grounds can the notion of grief work be applied to texts written two or three generations after the original loss (the death of Jesus)? The author contends that this is possible because grief work (1) was a matter of the emerging Christian movement at large, (2) is involved in the general notion of "coping" in changing situations, (3) becomes a literary phenomenon with the writing of the Gospels, and (4) continues to have new objects after the original loss. Finally, it is suggested that the resurrection belief itself can be seen as a "coping" device.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article explores the objects that were left as identifiers for the children abandoned to London's Foundling Hospital in the eighteenth century. Required by the hospital in order to permit a future reclaiming by a parent and to guard against a charge of infanticide, these tokens fulfilled an institutional priority. The token procedure, this article argues, resulted in a class of objects that can be aligned closely with elegy. Occasional objects, the tokens communicate maternal affection and a sense of dislocation. As distillations of grief and imaginative framings of loss, the foundling tokens constitute eighteenth-century artifacts of elegy.

Full text
Abstract:
Consolation is grief's traditional amelioration, but contemporary bereavement theory lacks a conceptual framework to include it. The article begins to develop that framework. The article argues that grief is inter-subjective, even at the biological level. Consolation and grief happen in the same inter-subjective space. Material from the histories of several religions sets the article in a cross-cultural and historical environment. The article examines consolation in interpersonal relationships, and then moves to consolation in cultural/religious resources that range from the literal image of God as an idealized parent to the abstract architecture of Brahm's Requiem. The most common consolation in the histories of religions comes within continuing bonds that are accessed in a wide variety of beliefs, rituals, and devotional objects. The article closes by briefly drawing the connection between consolation and faith.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the ways mourning was performed on the early modern stage. "Expressions of Grief on the Early Modern Stage" re-evaluates widely accepted accounts of theatrical and literary mourning, intervening in two major debates. The first is the extent to which theatrical mourning is an expression of mourning for a Catholic past, a familiar account that is complicated by asking what happens when mourning is future-oriented, rehearsing for a death still to come. The second intervention disrupts the notion of a linear progression from stoical, anti-grief attitudes to increasing sympathy for mourners by revealing a variety of responses to staged mourning across this time period. I identified seventy-eight plays from 1580-1642 that feature extended or notable scenes of mourning, and created a database to track accompanying gestures, associated playing companies, playhouses, and playwrights, and dates of composition and performance (when known). The thesis focuses on four aspects of the dramaturgy of mourning that emerged from this research: mourning as preemptive or strategic; mourning displaced by revenge; mourning performed as explicitly false; and, throughout, the way mourning deploys the vertical axis of the stage structure and the actor's body. The following chapters examine mourning through the specific gestures of prostration and kneeling, through motion (the rising and falling in the history plays as revenge takes the place of mourning), and the metadramatic bracketing of mourning in fake funerals. Examining specific gestures and the use of the stage space, reveals the way mourning was performed both "out of joint" - that is, out of the expected time sequence - and "out of place", using verticality in unexpected ways, lowering the body to take control of the gaze and the dramatic moment; framing 'above' as strategically advantageous while the confined theatrical space forces the actors to descend. Analysing prostration scenes in George Peele's David and Bethsabe and in Titus Andronicus reveals additional substantiation for Peele's role as a collaborator with Shakespeare. Looking at the three parts of Henry VI through the thematic lens of mourning contributes to the debate over the order of composition, offering tentative support for the 1-2-3 sequence. Tracking fake funerals over this time period revealed a sharp increase in this device after 1603, which the final chapter suggests is related to anxieties over public performances of mourning after Elizabeth I's death and one of the worst plague years on record. Performances of theatrical mourning thus occur displaced in time, preemptive requests for a death not to happen rather than the belated wish to bring the dead back to life. Mourning in the theatre occurs out of place: testing classbased mourning scripts; moving up and down the vertical axis of the stage; performing a transitory state of emotion through transitory gestures; deploying submissive poses that turn out to hold surprising theatrical and strategic power.

Abstract:
Recent studies on ancient Israel's mortuary culture have shown that mourning rites were not restricted to the occasions of death, burial and subsequent grief but were, in fact, implemented in diverse contexts. In this thesis I am looking at biblical traditions in which these solemn practices contributed, or sought to contribute to various forms of social restoration. More specifically, I explore the stories of biblical grieving mothers who are placed at key junctures in Israel's history to renegotiate the destinies not only of their own children, dead or lost, but also those of larger communities, i.e. family lines, ethnic groups, or entire nations. Since 'the social and ritual dimensions of mourning are intertwined and inseparable ... [and] rites in general are a context for the creation and transformation of social order', these women use the circumstance of their 'interrupted' motherhood as a platform for a kind of grief-driven socio-political activism. Since maternal bereavement is generally understood as the most intense of all types of loss and was seen as archetypal of all mourning in ancient Near Eastern cultures, Israelite communities in crisis deemed sorrowing motherhood as a potent agent in bringing about their own survival and resurgence back to normalcy. I begin my discussion on mourning rites as tools of social preservation and restoration in biblical traditions with (1) a list of modern examples that attest to a phenomenon of social, political, and religious engagement among women that stems from the circumstance of child loss; (2) a survey of recent grief and death studies that identify maternal grief as the most intense and the most enduring among other types of bereavement; (3) an overview of ancient Near Eastern cultures (Mesopotamia, Egypt, Hatti, Syro-Palestine) that not only viewed maternal grief as paradigmatic of all mourning but also utilised ritual actions performed by mothers in contexts of large scale catastrophes as mechanisms for dealing with a collective trauma. Against this background my project then turns to discuss four biblical mothers: Hagar (Gen. 21:14-21), Rizpah (2 Sam. 21:1-14), the woman of Tekoa (2 Sam. 14:1-20) and Rachel (Jer. 31:15-22), all of whom perform rites for their dying or dead children and exhibit a form of advocacy for society at large.

Abstract:
As relações que se estabelecem entre teorias e práticas na clínica psicanalítica não costumam ser abordadas explicitamente nos escritos teóricos de psicanalistas; necessariamente, porém, elas subjazem às suas práticas e discursos. O presente trabalho propõe-se a investigar a complexidade inerente a essas relações, que a nosso ver não se restringem a uma concepção bidirecional e causal. Para tanto, recorremos a conceitos da epistemologia e, fundamentalmente, da própria psicanálise. O texto \"Uma nova leitura das origens da teoria das relações de objeto\" de Ogden permitiu-nos pensar as teorias como objetos passíveis de sofrerem investimentos libidinais: uma vez perdidas, exigirão do analista um trabalho de luto. Consideramos que essa perda ocorre quando a teoria deixa de responder às exigências da clínica, isto é, quando deixa de amparar o analista em seu contato com os pacientes. Luto e melancolia, assim, serviram-nos como metáfora para investigar os modos pelos quais as teorias se fazem presentes no analista e, conseqüentemente, na clínica, pois engendram objetos internos distintos. Se o analista faz o luto da teoria, ela é incorporada a seu conhecimento subsidiário, provendo as bases para um encontro traumático com os pacientes e com novas teorias. Se, por outro lado, esse luto não pode ser elaborado, a teoria fica então cristalizada no conhecimento subsidiário do analista, impedindo a clínica de irromper em sua dimensão traumática de alteridade.
Relationships established between theories and practices in the psychoanalytic clinical situation are not usually explicitly examined in the theoretical writings of psychoanalysts; such relationships, however, are necessarily implicit to their practices and discourses. The present work intends to investigate the complexities inherent to these relationships, which in our view are not limited to a causal and bidirectional conception. In order to do so, we have referred to concepts from epistemology and, most fundamentally, psychoanalysis itself. Ogden\'s \"A new reading of the origins of object relations theory\" has allowed us the consideration of theories as objects liable to receive libidinal cathexes, so that once they are lost, they will need to be mourned by the analyst. Such a loss occurs once the theory stops responding to clinical demands, that is, once it stops supporting the analyst in his contact with patients. Mourning and melancholia have thus served us as a metaphor to investigate the ways in which theories become present in the analyst and, consequently, in the clinical situation, for they engender different internal objects. If the analyst mourns the loss of the theory, it gets incorporated into his subsidiary knowledge, providing thus the bases for traumatic encounters with patients and new theories. If, on the other hand, the analyst cannot mourn, the theory gets then rigidly fixed into the analyst\'s subsidiary knowledge, therefore preventing the clinical situation to come forward in its full traumatic otherness.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis concerns how murdered women and their bodies are represented through written and visual language in tabloid crime journalism. Two Swedish high profile murders were chosen through a purposeful sampling, and 436 articles from Sweden's two largest tabloid newspapers, Aftonbladet and Expressen, were thematized through Thematic Analysis. After that, a smaller sample was analyzed in depth through Critical Discourse Analysis and Multimodal Visual Analysis. The results show that murdered women and their bodies are represented as both subjects, objects and abject. However, when constructed as a social subject through personal traits and agency, the personalities of the murdered women were also used to establish a normative objectification of how women ought and ought not to behave. Furthermore, the material body as an object was visually absent from the material but made visible through detailed and repetitive descriptions of violence and interdiscursive connections to popular culture. Consequently, the abject body produced fear within society, but also provided an arena for a shared identity and the restoration of social order, through extensive portrayals of public grief and thorough media coverage of the legal process.             These results contribute both new knowledge and the suggestion of a suitable theoretical framework for further academic research. Hopefully, these findings will also result in an academic, as well as a professional, discussion regarding the current mediated discourse within crime journalism.

Abstract:
Vol. 1 The Things She Owned : Major Work -- v. 2 Objects as Markers for Identity Transformation in Fictional Grief Narratives : Exegesis
“The Things She Owned” is a work of literary fiction in the genre of the grief narrative. The interwoven stories of Michiko and Eriko, a mother and daughter, follow Michiko’s life from her wartime childhood in Tokyo to early adulthood, and Erika’s, after her mother’s death, in contemporary London. Erika has not dealt with an urn containing some of Michiko’s bones, nor with other things once owned by her mother, all of which sit untouched and hidden in a dusty cabinet. The arrival of her Japanese cousin Kei forces Erika to confront the difficult feelings stirred up by the sight of these objects. Each section of the narrative from Erika’s life is prefaced by an ekphrastic description of objects that once belonged to Michiko; the things appear within the body of the narrative, each playing a different role in reflecting Erika’s sense of identity in relation to the death of her mother. Some are relics, some represent fossilised grief; others are catalysts for Erika’s transforming identity. A military academy ring found in a secret cabinet drawer prompts Erika to travel to Okinawa to find the man she discovers is her real father. There, she has an accident climbing to a waterfall and her rapidly changing internal world becomes apparent. The exegetical component of this thesis examines the role played by objects in fictional grief narratives and how they illustrate identity reconstruction of a protagonist that has suffered traumatic loss. Acknowledging that traumatic loss shatters the world view of the bereaved, requiring a re-ordering and reconstruction of a new identity to help find new meaning in a forever-changed world, this exegesis seeks to fill a gap in research, exploring the way objects can be used as markers to reflect the different stages through which the bereaved progress through a process of identity reconstruction. The exegesis suggests a new schema for the analysis of objects and their changing roles in grief narratives by combining findings from the research of Margaret Gibson — into the way the bereaved relate to the objects of the dead — with thing theory, bereavement theory and psychoanalytical research, particularly incorporating ideas on the transitional or cathexic object. For the purposes of this thesis, Siri Hustvedt’s novel, What I Loved, is read closely alongside “The Things She Owned” to demonstrate the application of the suggested schema. The exegesis will also examine how using the real in fiction — real objects, in the case of “The Things She Owned” — helped to mitigate difficult feelings that arose during the writing process. It also addresses a perceived yearning for authenticity, epitomized by a surge in the popularity of grief narratives, in an age of rapidly-consumed multimedia and shallow sensationalism.

Abstract:
This chapter investigates how emotional and gender practices entwine to articulate the contours of the story of noble privilege. It looks closely at Chrétien de Troyes's Erec et Enide and his Yvain to explore the relation between grief, gender, and narration in romance. While the chapter reveals much about how gender operates and what it does, it argues that is not simply about aligning grief and suffering with the feminine. Often read as objects of men's desire, widows like Enide are also desirable because women's mourning entails narrative. The chapter discusses grief as a kind of storytelling, one eroticized as it narrates power for the powerful. It seeks to answer the questions such as, whose feelings may be expressed, whose feelings matter? Who can practice desire beyond the bounds of the law?

Abstract This chapter aims to explain the sense in which emotions, and specifically grief and anger, are reasons-responsive. It makes a case for the rationality of emotion in the relevant sense and distinguishes it from the rationality of action and the rationality of belief. The chapter also offers a sustained argument against the “wrong kind of reasons” for emotion, arguing, in particular, that appealing to them constitutes confusion. Finally, the chapter clarifies what the objects of grief and anger are and how they are related to reasons for emotion and background conditions for such reasons.

Abstract Chapter 5 explores Beckett’s ways of expressing grief and loss while avoiding sentiment. His letters about the illnesses and deaths of his family members and friends reveal the intensity of his involvement, even when he pretended otherwise. As he aged, his letters of condolence to friends grew ever more compassionate, their power of comfort emerging from his refusal to console in any of the conventional ways. The chapter goes on to study the rhythms of attachment and abandonment in the objects that Beckett’s characters cherish, enumerate, and dismiss, with special attention to Malone Dies, Happy Days, and the heart-breaking rendering of objects left behind by the dead in Ill Seen Ill Said.

The most challenging is the Hardline Response, according to which accommodation to loss and injustice is unreasonable. The chapter contends that the Hardline Response fails to do justice to the moral psychology of the emotions. The other five responses seek to understand accommodation as rational by conceiving of the reasons for emotion as time-sensitive. These responses include the appeal to the waning shock over loss or injustice, the analogy between accommodation and partiality, the view that grief and anger are processes which unfold over time, and the view that they constitute psychological work which we complete over time. These attempts fail because they leave us with double vision: We cannot, at once, apprehend the objects of our emotions and the psychological facts about the emotions that would account for their time-sensitivity.
