Melanie Klein on mourning: Its relation to pastoral care
1New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center and is with The Hospital Chaplaincy Inc., New York City.
Abstract:
This paper connects the work of Melanie Klein on mourning to the pastor's work with the grief sufferer. Klein holds that mourning is an illness of manic depressive character rooted in infantile development. Klein's description of manic defenses in the face of loss has adult behavioral analogues with which the pastor must deal to bring mourning to resolution.
