The collection aims to enhance and complement the predominantly biomedical and sociological debates and provide a more comprehensive and highly topical view on aging and old age. By purveying a meaning-in-life perspective to the current debate we want to enrich and to deepen the research on aging, thus aspiring to an ideal of meaningful aging. The starting point of this book is a humanistic meaning frame for addressing basic needs of a meaningful existence, such as having goals in life, a sense of self-worth, connectedness with others, moral justification, a certain degree of understanding (comprehensibility), direction and influence with a view to cohesion in life, and not in the least place: (living) pleasure or excitement. Taken together, the essays show that experiencing a meaningful life contributes to one’s mentalresilience, conceived as the ability to realize a humane individuality (autonomy) in thinking and acting in situations of adversity and vulnerability, particularly those faced by older people.. | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | 关键词 | Aging; Meaning-in-Life; Meaning Frame; Humanism; Gerontology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-55806-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-55808-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-55806-1Series ISSN 2634-6656 Series E-ISSN 2634-6664 | issn_series | 2634-6656 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
