    Abstract: "Human beings are grieving animals and consolation, an attempt to assuage grief, is an age-old response to loss, expressed variously in different cultural contexts. However, over the course of the past century, consolation has dropped off the West's cultural radar. The contributions to this volume highlight this neglect of consolation in popular and academic discourses and explore the analytical value of the concept of consolation for analysing spatio-temporal constellations. The volume brings together scholars from geography, philosophy, history, anthropology and religious studies. The chapters use spatial and conceptual mappings of grief and consolation to analyse a range of spaces and phenomena around grief, bereavement and remembrance, comfort and resilience, including battlefield memorials, crematoria, graveyards, natural burial sites in Europe, and they shift the boundaries of discussion beyond the Global North by including responses to traumatic grief in post-conflict African societies as well as Australian Aboriginal traditions of ritual consolation. Consolationscapes focuses on the relationship between space/place and consolation. In so doing, the book offers a new lens for research on death, grief and bereavement. It opens new insights for students and researchers interrogating contemporary bereavement, as well as those interested in emerging social-cultural practices, meaning-making and their role in personal and collective resilience"--

    Abstract: Anthropologist Dr Ad Borsboom, chair of Pacific Studies at Radboud University Nijmegen, devoted his academic career from 1972 onwards to the transmission of cultural knowledge.

This collection of essays by his colleagues, specializing in cultures from across the globe, focuses on knowledge transmission.

    Abstract: Anthropologist Dr Ad Borsboom, chair of Pacific Studies at Radboud University Nijmegen, devoted his academic career from 1972 onwards to the transmission of cultural knowledge. Borsboom handed the insights he acquired during many years of fieldwork among Australian Aborigines on to other academics, students and the general public. This collection of essays by his colleagues, specializing in cultures from across the globe, focuses on knowledge transmission. The contributions deal with local forms of education or pedagogics, the learning experiences of fieldwork and the nexus of status and education. Whereas some essays are reflexive, others are personal in nature. But all of the authors are fascinated by the divergent ways in which people handle 'knowledge'. The volume provides readers with respectful representations of other cultures and their distinct epistemologies.
