Crossing Over New Narratives Death

项目摘要

From 2012-2016 the multi-disciplinary AHRC Research Network "Crossing Over: New Narratives of Death" investigated the changing face of contemporary death, bereavement and commemoration. The current project seeks to bring the network's work to wider, non-academic audiences through three public-facing activities: 1.Two creative writing workshops to be run in partnership with the voluntary organisation Calderdale Dying Matters Partnership.2. A Death Café event on the University of Hull campus.3. End Notes: an e-book of short stories themed around end of life.The creative writing workshops build on the network's successful collaboration in 2015 with Rotherham Hospice. Members of the network collaborated with Hospice staff to investigate the meaning of memorial objects, i.e. Objects which carried associations with a departed loved one. The collaboration produced a collective poem. The proposed Calderdale workshops will draw on Dr Karina Croucher's archaeological expertise to establish memorial meanings and practices. Using this resource, Principal Investigator Dr David Kennedy will then lead the creative writing part of the workshops. Calderdale Dying Matters Partnership will support the workshops by identifying venues and publicising the workshops to the general public in their Calderdale catchment area.The Death Café event will be open to staff, students and the general public. It will draw on successful national practice in Death Cafes to provide a positive and permissive space in which to discuss a range of issues surrounding end of life such as having the type of death one wants, funeral instructions and bereavement. A range of activities on the day will be used to start these sorts of conversations. For example, the Death Café will use colour coded Fink Advanced Planning cards which offer users a range of 48 topics surrounding end of life in order to get them thinking.'End Notes' is a series of interlinked short stories and creative non-fiction pieces that explore different aspects of mortality. These include caring for the dying and the terminally ill, bereavement, grieving, and rituals, mourning and remembrance ceremonies, both traditional and non-traditional. Some pieces would be based on research and interviews with people caring for those near death (hospital and hospice workers and medical staff, an imam and a rabbi), while others draw on personal experience. The collection encompasses a memoir and interviews about the journalistic death knock; the two very different funerals of an Irish exile, one in the UK and the second back in Ireland; Catholic and Jewish rituals and ceremonies; a Quaker funeral; the different attitudes towards death in Nigeria and the UK; a ghost story from Finland, and the need for heightened language in mourning ceremonies in a secular age. 'End Notes' will span a range of cultural practices, illuminating that which connects us. The collection will be edited by University of Hull creative writing lecturers Ray French and Kath McKay, who will each contribute two pieces. Six other writers will contribute. 'End Notes' would take the form of an ebook and would be made available to all major eBook retailers and convertible to both Mobi and epub.It is proposed that activities 1 and 2 will take place during Dying Matters national awareness week which will take place in mid May 2017. The e-book will be launched in the same period.The work of the original 'Crossing Over' network and some of its outputs can be viewed here:http://www2.hull.ac.uk/fass/english/research/research-projects/crossing-over-network.aspx

2012年至2016年，多学科AHRC研究网络“跨越：死亡的新叙事”调查了当代死亡、丧亲和纪念的变化。当前的项目旨在通过三项面向公众的活动将该网络的工作带给更广泛的非学术受众： 1. 与志愿组织 Calderdale Dying Matters Partnership 合作举办两个创意写作研讨会。赫尔大学校园的死亡咖啡馆活动。3。尾注：一本以生命终结为主题的短篇故事电子书。创意写作研讨会以该网络 2015 年与罗瑟勒姆临终关怀中心的成功合作为基础。该网络的成员与临终关怀中心的工作人员合作，调查纪念物品的含义，即与已故亲人有联系的物品。这次合作创作了一首集体诗。拟议的卡尔德代尔研讨会将利用卡琳娜·克劳彻博士的考古专业知识来确定纪念意义和实践。首席研究员大卫·肯尼迪博士将利用这一资源领导研讨会的创意写作部分。卡尔德代尔死亡事务合作伙伴关系将通过确定场地并向卡尔德代尔学区的公众宣传研讨会来支持研讨会。死亡咖啡馆活动将向工作人员、学生和公众开放。它将借鉴全国死亡咖啡馆的成功实践，提供一个积极和宽容的空间，讨论一系列围绕生命终结的问题，例如人们想要的死亡类型、葬礼指示和丧亲之痛。当天的一系列活动将用于开始此类对话。例如，死亡咖啡馆将使用颜色编码的芬克高级规划卡，为用户提供围绕生命终结的 48 个主题，以便让他们思考。“尾注”是一系列相互关联的短篇故事和创意非小说作品，探索死亡的不同方面。其中包括照顾临终者和绝症患者、丧亲、悲伤以及传统和非传统的仪式、哀悼和纪念仪式。有些作品基于对濒临死亡者的护理人员（医院和临终关怀工作人员、医务人员、伊玛目和拉比）的研究和采访，而其他作品则借鉴个人经验。该集包括一本关于新闻死亡敲门的回忆录和采访；一位爱尔兰流亡者的两场截然不同的葬礼，一场在英国，另一场在爱尔兰；天主教和犹太教仪式和典礼；贵格会葬礼；尼日利亚和英国对死亡的不同态度；来自芬兰的鬼故事，以及世俗时代哀悼仪式中加强语言的必要性。 “尾注”将涵盖一系列文化实践，阐明我们之间的联系。该文集将由赫尔大学创意写作讲师 Ray French 和 Kath McKay 编辑，他们将各贡献两篇作品。其他六位作家将做出贡献。 “尾注”将以电子书的形式提供给所有主要电子书零售商，并可转换为 Mobi 和 epub。建议活动 1 和 2 将在 2017 年 5 月中旬举行的“Dying Matters”全国意识周期间进行。该电子书将在同一时期推出。原始“Crossing Over”网络的工作及其一些输出可以查看这里：http://www2.hull.ac.uk/fass/english/research/research-projects/crossing-over-network.aspx
