Work of Mourning. Lifton recalls that he once gave a lecture on Hiroshima to a group of psychiatrists; some of them later told him that they resented subsequent speakers who dealt with ordinary concerns. He notes that a similar reaction occurred after President Kennedy's assassination. To accomplish what Freud called "the work of mourning"-the process of coming to terms with loss-Americans remained glued to their TV sets, absorbing every detail of the killing and the funeral. When the stations returned to routine programming, many viewers felt annoyed and let down. The work of mourning had "opened...
