Week 16 of 16

Review and Integration

Holding the Whole

Natality, trauma, grievability, refusal, care, afterlives—these are the threads we’ve woven together across sixteen weeks.

This final week is for synthesis: mapping concepts across the whole course timeline from ancient to modern to contemporary collisions. What vision of life emerges when we hold birth and death together?

Closing ritual: One text you’ll keep. One question you won’t stop asking.

Write
