Previous issue date: 2017-12-01 / Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq / The present qualitative research aimed to understand how teachers from the city of São Paulo perceive the matter of education about death, from the experience of taking their students to a guided visit to Consolação Cemetery. A focus group with 9 participants was formed, with teachers who work with first and second grade students of municipal public elementary school, who had had this experience a month before the focus group had it. The instruments used were field observation of the school group which had a guided visit to Consolação Cemetery and a semi-structured interview by means of focus group. The collected material was analysed by the Bardin (2016) technique of content analysis, allowing identification of the categories: fear of death; sociocultural and religious context; participation in funeral ceremonies; meaning of the cemetery; effects of childhood experiences in the adult life; bereavement; communication about death at school; school visit to the cemetery; Zippy‟s Friends Program; students learning; pedagogy trainees learning; education on death at school. The observation has shown that students and teachers were participative and interested in thinking about the topic of death, having explored the cemetery as a place for learning. Teachers perceived the education on death as important at school and that they can also use their past personal childhood experiences with loss and death to help sympathise with the child‟s pain, as well as validate their perceptions and child‟s bereavement acknowledge. The results show that some children would ask questions based on what they had learnt in the classroom, in a previous project, while the teachers training indicate that the visit to the cemetery was an enabler for the appreciation of the idea of including the death topic at school, and the importance of observing the student‟s emotional issues in the learning process / A presente pesquisa qualitativa teve como objetivo compreender como professores de São Paulo percebem a questão da educação sobre a morte, a partir da experiência de levar os seus alunos à visita guiada ao Cemitério Consolação. Realizou-se um grupo focal com 9 participantes, professores que lecionam no primeiro e segundo ano do ensino fundamental da rede pública municipal, que tiveram esta experiência no mês anterior da data de realização do grupo focal. Os instrumentos utilizados foram observação em campo da visita guiada com uma escola no Cemitério Consolação e entrevista semiestruturada de grupo focal. O material coletado foi avaliado a partir da técnica de análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2016), permitindo a construção das categorias: medo da morte; contexto sociocultural e religioso; participação nos rituais fúnebres; significado de cemitério; repercussões das vivências infantis na fase adulta; luto; comunicação sobre a morte na escola; visita escolar ao cemitério; Programa Amigos do Zippy; aprendizado dos alunos; aprendizado das estagiárias de pedagogia; educação sobre a morte na escola. A observação evidenciou alunos e professores participativos e interessados em refletir sobre o tema da morte, tendo explorado o cemitério como lugar de aprendizado. As professoras percebem como sendo importante a educação sobre a morte na escola e que o resgate de suas experiências pessoais de perdas e morte na infância, ajuda na empatia com o sofrimento da criança assim como a validação de suas percepções e o luto infantil reconhecido. Os resultados apontam que algumas crianças faziam perguntas a partir do que tinham aprendido em sala de aula, em projeto anterior, enquanto que a existência de capacitação das professoras indica que a visita ao cemitério foi um facilitador para a valorização da inclusão do tema morte na escola e da importância de observar questões emocionais dos alunos no processo de aprendizagem

An exploration of the therapeutic value of Ihlambo : community members' perspectives.Tushini, Nandisa. January 2011 (has links)
Ihlambo is an African indigenous cleansing ceremony that has been used in an attempt to anchor the peace that has been initiated in some communities in KwaZulu-Natal. Indigenous ways of healing have become increasingly important for the indigenous people of Kwa-ZuluNatal after mass violations of human rights and the deaths of many individuals and families in the 1990s. This research was aimed at investigating survivors of violence‟s experiences of ihlambo. The purpose was to establish the process and therapeutic aspects of these ceremonies through interviewing community members from Mbumbulu and Richmond which are both located in Kwa-Zulu Natal and both have a history of mass violations of human rights, from the killings of innocent people to displacing most members of the community. This was due mainly to tribal and political wars. In the quest for forgiveness, peace and reconciliation, these communities have participated in mass ritual cleansing-ihlambo. The results of this research show that indicators of reconciliation and forgiveness for these communities are emotional wellbeing, mental healing, and the interconnection with ancestors. Other important themes were peace in the community, peace for those that died during the violence, and emotional/ mental healing.

The experiences of death and dying of Zulu patients, their families and caregivers.Mtalane, Lissah Joyce Themba. January 1989 (has links)
This thesis studies the impact of the terminal illness and
awareness of undergoing the dying process and inevitable death, at
the KwaZulu Government hospital Ngwelezana, at Empangeni in the
Lower Umfolozi District. A case study, drawing both upon nursing
and social anthropology, was conducted to establish the
experiences of death and dying of Zulu patients, their families
and caregivers. The basic trend reflected in the findings is the
need to discuss dying with patients, the lack of skills and
knowledge on the part of caregivers, lack of recognition of
patients' cultural beliefs. The study does not claim to deal with
a complete spectrum of the experiences of death and dying of all
Zulus but is a meaningful and significant innovation into an
unresearched area of patient care. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of Natal, Durban, 1989.

A cybernetic approach to grief : an application of the cybernetic paradigm in the field of parental loss of a childCheadle, Josephine Cornelia 01 1900 (has links)
This study sets out to demonstrate the usefulness of cybernetic description for grief therapy, specifically the field parental loss of a child. This paradigm was used to facilitate an alternate mode of conceptualisation, one engendering a more encompassing, aesthetic view. The following core cybernetic concepts were used: punctuation, complementarity, pattern and metapattern forming the framework of cybernetic description as applied.
A literature study attempting to merge the gestalt of cybernetic description with that of bereavement theory, specifically that pertaining to the parental loss of a child, is presented. A single case study is described illustrating how cybernetic description is applied to the grief narrative. Arising out of this, the implications of cybernetic description for the field of grief and social work in general are outlined. / Social Work / M.A. (Social Science (Mental Health))

Morte: a crise ante a morte e a reconfiguração da identidade religiosa do adulto na sociedade contemporâneaVania Maria Ferreira Silva 00 December 2008 (has links)
A presente dissertação tem como objetivo geral identificar pensamentos e sentimentos das pessoas ante a morte, buscando compreender como esta crise
interfere na identidade religiosa do adulto. O trabalho visa identificar como a crise ante a morte interfere na reconfiguração da identidade religiosa dos adultos
pesquisados bem como averiguar se dentre os sentimentos elencados surgem medos relacionados à morte e a situação pós-morte. Esta pesquisa usa a abordagem qualitativa dos dados, sobretudo por não se pretender generalizar
resultados. A partir desta perspectiva, utiliza-se o método fenomenológico, com o propósito de identificar os significados dos sentimentos vividos pelos adultos, diante da crise ante a morte. Para alcançar os objetivos propostos, o instrumento da coleta de dados é a entrevista semi-estruturada, baseando-se em duas perguntas norteadoras. A amostra consta de doze sujeitos com idade entre cinqüenta e quatro
e noventa anos que se declaram pertencendo à religião católica, espírita, evangélica, sem religião definida e alguns que se auto-atribuíram denominações religiosas novas, criadas no momento da própria entrevista. Com os dados em
mãos, faz-se a análise qualitativa das vivências e representações, buscando delimitar e descrever fenomenologicamente o conteúdo das entrevistas em unidades
de significados, confrontando-as com as teorias embasadoras. Os resultados das análises demonstram que os adultos que vivenciam uma situação de crise ante a morte, tendem a questionar os seus valores religiosos, desenvolvendo algumas
atitudes que se refletem em um movimento de reconfiguração de suas identidades religiosas: uns retraindo-se, distanciando-se ou rompendo completamente com os laços afetivos que os ligam as instituições religiosas de origem, outros, de modo
contrário, aproximam-se e intensificam as suas relações com suas instituições ou grupos religiosos. E ainda outros, afastando-se fazem do seu lar, um lugar sagrado e
passam de um tipo de fé herdada, para um tipo de fé pessoal, íntima, que se reflete no seu cotidiano, donde se pode concluir que o confronto com a morte, ocasiona
uma crise de natureza psicoespiritual / The present report has the objective to identify thoughts and feelings of people toward death, searching to understand how this crisis interferes in the adult religious
identity. The essay aims to identify how crisis facing death interferes in the religious identity reconfiguration of researched adults, as well as, to find out if among those
feelings there is a fear related to death and the after death situation. This research uses a qualitative approach of data, once, one does not intend to generalize results.
It is used the phenomenological method from this perspective, to identify the meaning of feelings undergone by adults due to death crisis. We collect data from
semi-structured interviews with two main questions for the proposed objectives. The sample is of twelve persons from 54 to 90 years old, that say to be Catholic Spirit,
Evangelic, no defined Religion and some self-defined with new religious denominations, created at the moment of the interview. The qualitative analysis of experiences and representations is carried out with the data seeking to delimitate the interview content phenomenological description in meaning units, to confront them with based upon theories. The results of the analysis show that adults go through crisis situation when facing death, they tend to question their religious values, developing attitudes that are reflected in their religious identity
reconfiguration: some of them withdrawing themselves or completely breaking the affective ties that link them to their religious institutions, others, differently, get closer and intensify ones relations with those institutions or religious groups. And others at home have a holy place, going from the inherited faith to an inner faith, that it is
reflected in daily life, so, one can conclude that, an existential crisis happens, when facing death

Conversations with survivors of suicide: old stories and new meaningsMandim, Leanne 01 January 2001 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to provide descriptions of conversations with survivors of suicide, including their relationships with the persons who committed suicide, the relationships that followed these deaths, their experiences of suicide, and the way that they made sense of these deaths.
The epistemological framework of this dissertation is ecosystemic and social constructionist. This study involved in-depth interviews with three suicide survivors, exploring personal and professional domains. Thematic analysis was the method used to generate patterns of meaning.
The researcher recounted the research participants' stories and punctuated emergent themes and patterns according to what she deemed important. Each story was contextualised, and included reflections of the researcher. Themes both common and unique to each participant story were highlighted and discussed.
The information yielded from this study could have value to survivors of suicide and psychotherapists whose clients commit suicide. / Psychology / M.A. (Clinical Psychology)
