Overview

Grief: Seven Philosophical Questions is a set of reflections about the meaning of grief. If we pay attention to it, grief is able to tell us more about the meaning of life and death than we thought. 1.What does it mean to grieve? 2.Why do love and loss belong together? 3.What do we grieve when we are grieving? 4.Is there an afterlife? 5.How can there be a God in the face of suffering and death? 6.Is grief dignified? 7.After grief, who am I? Beginning in authentic experiences of grief, this book is informed by the insights of some world-significant philosophers over the 2500 years of the development of philosophy, and is enriched by some relevant literary images that various authors have produced in their depiction of the human condition. For the sake of a short, accessible book of philosophical reflections on grief, Grief: Seven Philosophical Questions is neither academic nor religious. It remains faithful to a philosophical mission to explore what meaning is available in the tumult of grief. The book makes available some of the insights that the author has found consoling, and in a way that speaks to other grieving hearts and minds. Hopefully, this seven-fold set of short philosophical meditations on the meaning of grief can offer something that the reader may also find meaningful and consoling.
