While We're Still Here

Thanatology - Social


Listen Later

We made it to the end of our topical list of the types of Thanatology and how each school of thought studies and examines dying and death. Social thanatology encompasses anthropology, sociology, cultural differences, and ancient to modern traditions not only in the United States but from all over the globe, whether a large city or remote tribe.
How do people mourn, grieve, celebrate the life of someone they love? It's a journey I want to explore with you all as the weeks go by, so we can learn together how other cultures celebrate and grieve and the practice of traditions throughout the generations, from all over the world.
 
I hope this series has been informative and educational.
