SUMMARY:New Directions: The Poetics of Mourning: Eulogy\, Elegy\, Epic\, Epitaph
DESCRIPTION:Weekend Conference \nWe are living in a time of great dying. Climate change is drying up our water and destroying vulnerable species; a pandemic is claiming the lives of over a million people worldwide and changing much about our ways of life. How do we register the magnitude of these losses? \nWhen we lose individuals\, we eulogize them to help keep them in memory.  When we lose great people\, we elegize them to contextualize their importance to society.  When we lose not just individuals and heroes but an entire way of life\, we craft epics to register the sweep of history and mourn change on a grand scale. When we lay people to rest\, we locate them in psychic as well as physical space through inscribed epitaphs\, processions\, and music. This weekend will help us grasp mourning on a scale beyond those we are accustomed to managing. The uses of imagination\, myth\, memorial\, ritual\, music\, and literature will be considered\, as will the interplay between the mourners’ personal experience and that of the mourned. \nCoordinator: Billie Pivnick\, Ph.D. \nGUEST FACULTY: \nSpyros D. Orfanos\, PhD\, ABPP\, is Director of the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis.
