Abstract:
This article focuses on Robert Kastenbaum's seminal concept of the societal death system. Beginning with conflicting claims that America is a death-denying society versus a death-accepting society, the article reports Kastenbaum's definition and description of the death system in American society and sets forth the seven functions and five elements or components of that death system. Next, the article notes Kastenbaum's further claim that “All cultures, past and present, have had death systems.” Finally, two basic lessons are drawn from the foregoing: (1) Kastenbaum's concept of the death system provides a robust framework to explain the networks societies interpose between their members and death, focusing in particular on a more or less integrated and dynamic network within American society whose functions and components are not difficult to recognize in the ways in which they organize many aspects of the lives of individuals who live within that society; and (2) It is preposterous to assert without qualification that America is a death-denying society when there are so many activities and components within that society that are in whole or in part related to death, i.e., although it may be true that many aspects of the contemporary American death system appear to seek to remove death from the mainstream of life, there is ample evidence to indicate that American society as a whole and individuals within that society both accept and deny death simultaneously.

Abstract:
End-of-life experiences go by various terms, including near-death experiences (NDEs), deathbed visions, deathbed phenomena, deathbed coincidences, and nearing death awareness. Deathbed escorts is the term applied to the vision of deceased family members or friends who inform the dying person that they will be accompanied in the transition from life. In this article, I examine the subject of NDEs and deathbed escorts, starting with the rich body of work provided by Robert and Beatrice Kastenbaum. A subject of some interest to Robert Kastenbaum, he explored this frontier in his many writings on dying, death, and bereavement. Ever the pioneer and having made the ultimate transition, he may yet be exploring new frontiers.

Abstract:
The article sheds light on the way the author's scientific views and endeavors in the field of dying, death, and bereavement over 40 years in Germany have been influenced by the work of Robert Kastenbaum. Reconstructing the passage of time, the early years (i.e., the second half of the 1970s), a middle period (i.e., the 1980s and 1990s), and the later years (i.e., from the turn of the century to the present) are outlined. In an anecdotic fashion, two personal encounters with R. Kastenbaum are reported. The article concludes with showing/consensus and dissention in various respects and finally recounts the author's admiration for this outstanding scholar.

Abstract:
RÉSUMÉCe livre se veut un exposé sur l'âge et le vieillissement et sur les relations au sein des générations qui vivent le vieillissement et font face à la mort. L'ensemble semble se présente sous forme de textes de dramaturgic simples accompagnés de commentaires. Le livre comprent un prologue, des commentaires, les textes et un épilogue. Les textes de dramaturgie occupent l'espace principal du livre; toutefois, les autres sections expliquent au lecteur les intentions de l'auteur et soulignent leur utilité en tant qu'instrument éducatif gérontologique ou thanatologique ou exercice psychodramatique. Les textes se concentrent sur des types représentatifs et leurs relations comme personnages plutôt que sur une intrigue. Règle générale, le vieillissement est présenté comme un processus inévitable se produisant chez tous les sujets. Une amélioration des textes pourrait se faire en étoffant leur puissance suggestive et leur caractère humain pour les utiliser sur scène.

Abstract:
This article is a review of Robert Kastenbaum's 1979 essay entitled “Healthy dying: A paradoxical quest continues.” It begins with a summary of the arguments and challenges in the original essay. This is followed by an evaluation of his original claims in the light of contemporary insights in modern public health history and empirical studies of near-death experiences and deathbed visions. The recent development of health promotion in palliative care is described in relation to these developments and Kastenbaum's early question about the paradoxical quest for health while dying is again posed against this background. Given our modern understanding of “health” in current global health policy and debates, it is argued that “healthy dying” is no paradox. Instead, the pursuit of health at the end of life represents a realistic modern desire to compress morbidity, minimize unnecessary suffering, and enhance quality of life at this time.

Abstract:
Robert Kastenbaum posits that functional aging results in the overadaptation to our own routines and expectations, producing “hyperhabituation,” mental stagnation, and novaphobic response orientations. This article examines the promise and implications of this notion for two areas of environment-aging research: psychological control and environmental comprehension. Possible causal and mediating links between control and habituation are considered, as well as the impact of habituation on environmental perception, cognition, and appraisal. Personal and situational characteristics of older people likely to be at risk for habituated responses are suggested. The article also speculates about individually- and environmentally-targeted interventions which might prevent and/or ameliorate tendencies toward hyperhabituated responses among older people who reside in highly ritualized and constant environments such as long-term care institutions. Interventions subject to future evaluations include modifications for the social, physical, and policy milieux and desensitization of novaphobic responses.

Abstract:
Robert Kastenbaum was a man who helped reintroduce issues related to death, dying, and bereavement to academic, clinical, and general discourse. This article, devoted to an encounter with the observance of mourning custom and ritual in the Jewish tradition, continues the dialogue in this journal that Bob founded. The article utilizes the Two-Track Model of Bereavement to address the Jewish tradition's structuring of the loss experience. After a brief introduction, I present a schematic presentation of some of the issues operant in grief and mourning for the believer. This is followed by two responses to loss that portray the pain of loss in the tradition. The article goes on to consider the Jewish time cycle of response to loss—from preburial Aninut, to Shiva, the first week, to Shloshim, the first month, to Shanah, the first year, to the expectations for encounters across the life cycle. The Yizkor and Kaddish are also considered. In the Jewish tradition, alongside attention to what level of functioning to require of the bereaved, there are lifelong opportunities to rework and maintain connection to the memories, associations, narratives, and experiences that comprise the psychological organization of the continuing bond and relationship to the deceased.

Abstract:
This introduction to Part IV analyzes near-death memoirs and narratives as parallel to religious conversion narratives. If the experiencers raise claims that the near-death event changed their lives, their reports often equal those of conversion narratives. Consequently, communicating the experience may not only inform of experiences, but searches for empathetic responses in significant others. This chapter, however, discusses the well-known obstacles in autobiographical reporting of experiences. Psychologist Robert A. Kastenbaum argued in respect to near-death experiences that their specific content is often the result of a later development of a “revisionist,” postexperiential interpretation. On the other hand, experiences may sometimes also conform to expectations that were, at the time of the near-death event, already an integral part of the “experiencer’s” religious outlook.
