Sažetak
The article deals with mourning in the order of funeral ritual
celebration. On the basis of anthropological-cultural overview of
contemporary forms of mourning, remembering and celebrating,
as well as of the religious approach to funeral rites, Christian
order of funeral rites is considered as a gesture of consolation in
the bosom of paschal faith. In order to understand the symbolical
dynamics of mourning and ritual celebration, we will first try
to contextualize the theme within the frame of contemporary
culture. The second part is about the singularities of the rite of
mourning. The third part – From mourning to celebration, from
consolation to faith: images and symbols of Christian celebration
of the Mystery – is trying to provide, on the basis of pastoral and
liturgical criteria, a theological interpretation of mourning and
gestures of consolation within the liturgical celebration of the
funeral.
