Grieving Pregnancy. Memorializing Loss in Japanese Buddhism and American Catholicism, Paperback/Maureen L. Walsh

Grieving Pregnancy compares contemporary American Catholic and Japanese Buddhist memorial practices focused on miscarriage, stillbirth, and abortion. Maureen L. Walsh demonstrates that while the memorial practices confront the same basic problem—that is, pregnancy loss—they conceive of the problem in different terms, and as a result, propose distinct responses to it.
