Through a cultural sociological lens, it studies death as it remains constantly at the edge of our consciousness, shaping the ways in which we move through social reality. As such, .Death Matters. is a significant contribution to death studies, going beyond traditional parameters of the field by addressing the cultural omnipresence of death..The contributions analyse several death-related meaning-making processes, arguing that meanings emerging from culturally shared narratives, social institutions, and material conditions, are just as important as ’death practices’ in understanding the role of death in society. Drawing on the related themes of places of absence and presence, disease and bodies, and persons and non-persons, the authors explore a variety of areas of social life, from haunting to celebrity deaths, to move the notion of death from the margins of social reality to ongoing everyday life..This far-reaching collection will be of use to scholars and students across death studies, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, culture, media and communication studies.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Cultural sociology; Mortality; Dying; Materiality; Death in society; Death studies | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-11485-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-11485-5 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2019 |
