The new black : mourning, melancholia and depression / Darian Leader. by Leader, Darian. Minneapolis, Minn. : Graywolf Press, c2008. Subjects Loss (Psychology)   Bereavement -- Psychological aspects.   Depression, Mental. ISBN:  9781555975425 (pbk.) : 1555975429 (pbk.) : Description:  223 p. ; 20 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  Fifty years ago, the terms mourning and melancholia were part of the psychological lexicon. Today, in a world of rapid diagnoses, quick cures, and big pharmaceutical dollars, the catch-all concept of depression has evolved to take their place. Here, Darian Leader argues that this shift is more than semantic; rather, it speaks to our culture's complicated relationship with loss, suffering, and grief. Part memoir, part cultural analysis, Leader draws on examples from literature, art, cinema, and history, as well as case studies from his work as a psychologist, to explore the unconscious ways our culture responds to the experience of loss, providing an innovative tour of mourning and melancholia and our culture's struggle to understand them.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 155.93 Leader Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 155.93 Le Checked In Add Copy to MyList
