Description

Explore the complex evolution of how society views the later stages of life with Cultural Histories of Ageing. Part of the Routledge Studies in Cultural History series, this collection examines the myths, plots, and metaphors that shape the senescent self. By analyzing literature and philosophy from the sixteenth to the twenty-first century, the text reveals how different cultures construct identities related to old age. This scholarly work covers a broad geographic scope, including American, British, French, German, Polish, Norwegian, and Russian perspectives. It provides a deep look at how subjective constructions of selfhood change across different eras and nations. Readers can learn from a diverse team of experts, including humanistic gerontologist Jan Baars, historian David Troyansky, and cultural historian George Rousseau. Whether you are a student of history, literature, or gerontology, this book offers a unique look at the interfaces between culture and the experience of ageing. It serves as a vital resource for understanding the historical roots of modern concepts regarding late-life identity.
