  • Abstract
    In death and mourning, why should we think that rites adapt to psychology and not vice-versa? o‎r believe that psychological workings grow into a rite or ritual? When analysing practices related to rites of passage, death emerges as a rupture – or breakage – of social status. (www.actabiomedica.it)
