This book examines the phenomenon of individual and collective bereavement in Palestinian society. It seeks to explore the boundaries of the discourse of bereavement and commemoration in that society through the interactive relations between religion, nationality and gender, and the ways these influence the shaping of the mourning process for Palestinian parents who have lost their children in the second (al-Aqsa) Intifada. Over the course of the book's five chapters, Maram Masarwi scrutinizes how these components have shaped the differences in behavior between bereaved fathers and bereaved mothers: what characterizes these differences, how they are expressed, and how they have managed to shape the characteristics of the experience of Palestinian bereavement.
Maram Masarwi is Lecturer and Researcher at the Minerva Humanities Center at Tel Aviv University, Israel. She also teaches at the Al-Qasemi Academic College of Education, Israel. She holds a PhD from the Department of Social Work at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel and an MA in Education from Lesley University, UK.
