Abstract

Alors que la mort est si proche, que la tristesse et la souffrance dominent, il peut encore y avoir de la vie, de la joie, des mouvements d'âme d'une profondeur et d'une intensité parfois encore jamais vécues. Marie de Hennezel témoigne ici de son expérience d'accompagnement de personnes proches de la mort. Expérience à la fois personnelle, lorsque la mort frappe certains de ses amis, et professionnelle, dans le cadre d'une unité de soins palliatifs et d'un service de maladies infectieuses (sida). Elle partage avec nous la richesse et l'émotion des derniers instants de ceux qui restent des "vivants" jusqu'au bout, et qui dans l'humilité et la vérité où les a plongés la souffrance se sont révélés des maîtres.

Abstract

Die Studie befasst sich mit dem Erzählen vom Tod im Bilderbuch in historischer und gattungstheoretischer Perspektive und bildet anhand eines Textkorpus’ von 287 deutschen bzw. ins Deutsche übersetzten Titeln die Entwicklung von 1945 bis 2011 ab. Entwickelt wird ein narratologisches Modell der Bilderbuchanalyse, das unter Berücksichtigung von Erfahrungswerten der Sterbeforschung in den Einzelanalysen zur Anwendung kommt. Die Untersuchung fächert ein breites Spektrum von Motiven, von realistischen und phantastischen, religiösen und philosophischen Darstellungskonzepten auf. Eine besondere Rolle spielen Bilderbücher über das Sterben und den Tod von Kindern und die daran nachgewiesene Subgattung des psychologischen Bilderbuchs.

Abstract

A basic motivation for social and cultural life is the problem of death. By analysing the experiences of dying and bereaved people, as well as institutional responses to death, Clive Seale shows its importance for understanding the place of embodiment in social life. He draws on a comprehensive review of sociological, anthropological and historical studies, including his own research, to demonstrate the great variability that exists in human social constructions for managing mortality. Far from living in a 'death denying' society, dying and bereaved people in contemporary culture are often able to assert membership of an imagined community, through the narrative reconstruction of personal biography, drawing on a variety of cultural scripts emanating from medicine, psychology, the media and other sources. These insights are used to argue that the maintenance of the human social bond in the face of death is a continual resurrective practice, permeating everyday life.
