Abstract

ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to present an autoethonographic study in how I experienced and communicated parts of the mourning process when my father died at the age of 73. The article highlights the stages of grief experienced during the first year. Autoethnographic means are used chronologically to explore how the loss of a family member impacts the stages of grief that are present and how they overlap. In particular, I highlight the events that carried meaning or provided an outlet to express one of the stages of grief. It is hoped that this article can be used to understand why grieving is not an overnight process, but rather is drawn out through the highs and lows of remembering a loved one.

《再见，爸爸:悲伤和哀悼过程中的自我民族志之旅》

本文的目的是对我父亲73岁去世时，我是如何经历和沟通部分哀悼过程的自我民族志研究。这篇文章强调了第一年经历的悲伤阶段。自我民族志的方法是按时间顺序来探索失去家庭成员如何影响目前的悲伤阶段以及它们如何重叠。我特别强调了那些有意义的事件，或者为表达悲伤的一个阶段提供了一个出口。我希望这篇文章可以用来理解为什么悲伤不是一个一夜之间的过程，而是通过回忆所爱的人的高潮和低谷来延长的。
