S OCIOLOGY OF D EATH AND D YING It has been claimed that one can never look directly at the sun nor at one's own death. And yet, throughout the history of mankind, both have been the enduring themes of myth and religion, science and magic, curiosity and fear. From our late twentieth century vantage point we find that as the sun is understood as being the source of life in the natural order, so death is becoming recognized as the central dynamism underlying the life, vitality, and structure of the social order. Death is the muse of our religions, philosophies, political ideologies, arts and medical technologies. It sells newspapers and insurance policies, invigorates the plots of our television programs, andjudging from our dependency on fossil fuels (84.5% of all U.S. energy consumption in 1995)even powers our industries. It is the barometer by which we measure the adequacy of social life, such as when we compare cross-cultural death and life expectancy rates to gauge social progress, compare national homicide rates to infer the stability of social structures, or compare death rates of different social groups to ascertain social inequalities . In fact, perhaps the very first evidence of

A Tribute To Our Loss The following was written in "medival style" poetry by a 20 year-old English major's student for a literature class assignment. With the author's approval, we offer his thoughts that seem to express the core of humanity's heart and soul, as we struggle to cope with the pain and loss of the attacks against our nation. Cereal spoons fall from mouths of sleepy eyed students Upon hearing the horror. Hearts stop. Eyes widen, waiting for word. Chaos ensues, kindred pursue answers. Unanswerable questions, console only in the Lord. Waves of wailing, hope for humanity wilts. Worry rises whether war is inevitable. Innocent injured, inciting global involvement.

10. Kearl's Guide To The Sociology Of Death: Death's Personal Impacts death is oblivion and dying is an intense, unrelenting awareness. All too frequently death has come to affect members of my death and dying class. http://www.trinity.edu/~mkearl/death-6.html

P ERSONAL I MPACTS OF D EATH When a person is born, we rejoice, and when they're married, we jubilate, but when they die, we try to pretend that nothing happened. Margaret Mead Odd as it sounds, there can be little question that some deaths are better than others. People cross-culturally have always made invidious distinctions between good deaths and bad. Compare, for instance, crooner Bing Crosby's sudden death following eighteen rounds of his beloved golf with the slow motion, painful expiration of an eighty-year-old diabetic. Bedridden following the amputation of his leg, the old man eventually began slipping in and out of consciousness. This continues over a period of years, exhausting the emotional, physical. and financial resources of his family. The essence of a "good death" thus involves the needs of the dying (such as coming at the end of full and completed lives, and when death is preferred to continued existence) as well as those of their survivors and the broader society. Whereas the prevalence of unanticipated and premature deaths led to preindustrial cultures to focus death fears on individuals' postmortem fates, the death fears of modern cultures are more likely to focus on the processes of dying. Thus contemporary fears of dying involve the anxieties of dying within institutional settings, where often life is structured for the convenience of staff and where residents suffer both physical and psychological pain in their depersonalization. They also involve fears of being victims of advanced Alzheimer's Disease: being socially dead and yet biologically alive. In sum, the dreaded liminality between the worlds of the living and the dead have historically shifted from the period after death to the period preceding it.

Knowing about child grief age and grief stages How children are affected ... stories Adults have a tendency to dismiss the intense suffering of teens. Teens who have to deal with the loss of a parent, grandparent, sibling or other family member may suffer intensely. And Teens are very skilled at hiding the intensity of their grief. Because they tend to hide grief they often develop behavior problems at a later date with may not be "linked" to their grief by parents, school teachers and counselors or others who interact with the child on a daily basis.

Dying Without Shame, Dying Without Panic introduction a buddhist view web resources books ... Dharma Haven Home Page Overview "Death comes without warning. This body will be a corpse. Until that time, I will practice with exertion." A Buddhist Meditation Truly respecting death and its inevitability brings, paradoxically, a relaxing of the fear of death, along with a heightened sense of the importance of life and of what we choose to do with the time we have. The fact that any particular person is going to die or has already died is no ones fault it is a necessary part of being alive. Excessive fear of death distorts lives, and seems to be responsible for many of the more bizarre and inhumane excesses of our American medical system. In our search for sustainable, effective, respectful health care practices, ideas that could contribute to a sane and compassionate integrated health care system, we've found nothing as simple, basic, workable and cost effective as coming to terms with death and the process of dying something we can do as individuals, as families, as communities and as a culture. The issues we need to face to prepare for our own death, or that of someone we love, are mostly the same, whatever we believe about what, if anything, will follow this life. Whether you believe you will live again in another body, with another personality and history and so on, or that your life will continue in one or another of the heavens or hells described by various religions, or that when you die, that's it whatever you believe about what happens next death itself is relatively simple.
