摘要

最近退休的老年学教授，作者对自己的衰老经历进行了反思。根据他的专业领域——叙事老年学的子领域，以及弗罗里达·斯科特-麦克斯韦尔、卡尔·荣格和托马斯·摩尔等作家的年龄相关思想，他将有关老年超越、超个人老年学和所谓的濒死体验的变革效应的研究编织在一起，阐明了衰老本身就是一种濒死体验的愿景。其结果是对“灵魂衰老”的高度个人思考，作为对晚年生活迷人景观的缓慢，深入和广泛的旅行。

Slower, deeper, wider: what soulful aging means to me

ABSTRACT Recently retired as a professor of gerontology, the author reflects on his own experience of aging. Drawing on the sub-field of narrative gerontology, his area of specialization, and on age-related thoughts by writers like Florida Scott-Maxwell, Carl Jung, and Thomas Moore, he weaves together research concerning Gerotranscendence, Transpersonal Gerontology, and the transformative effects of so-called Near Death Experiences to articulate a vision of aging as, itself, a near-ing death experience. The result is a highly personal meditation on “soulful aging” as a matter of journeying slower, deeper, and wider into the intriguing landscape of later life.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Religion, Spirituality and Aging is an interdisciplinary, interfaith professional journal in which the needs, aspirations, and resources of aging constituencies come clearly into focus. Combining practical innovation and scholarly insight, the peer-reviewed journal offers timely information and probing articles on such subjects as long-term care for the aging, support systems for families of the aging, retirement, counseling, death, ethical issues, and more . Providing a crucial balance between theory and practice, the journal informs secular professionals – administrators, counselors, nurses, physicians, recreational rehabilitative therapists, and social workers – about developments in the field of Religion, Spirituality, and Aging. The journal also serves as a resource for religious professionals, such as pastors, religious educators, chaplains, and pastoral counselors who work with aging people and their families.
