Conclusion. 000940126 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 000940126 520__ $$aThis book takes readers into stories of love, loss, grief and mourning and reveals the emotional attachments and digital kinships of the virtual 3D social world of Second Life. At fourteen years old, Second Life can no longer be perceived as the young, cutting-edge environment it once was, and yet it endures as a place of belonging, fun, role-play and social experimentation. In this volume, the authors argue that far from facing an impending death, Second Life has undergone a transition to maturity and holds a new type of significance. As people increasingly explore and co-create a sense of self and ways of belonging through avatars and computer screens, the question of where and how people live and die becomes increasingly more important to understand. This book shows how a virtual world can change lives and create forms of memory, nostalgia and mourning for both real and avatar based lives. 000940126 650_0 $$aCulture$$xStudy and teaching. 000940126 650_0 $$aSocial media. 000940126 650_0 $$aReligion and culture. 000940126 7001_ $$aCarden, Clarissa,$$eauthor. 000940126 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319760988 000940126 830_0 $$aPalgrave Macmillan memory studies. 000940126 852__ $$bebk 000940126 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-76099-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000940126 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:940126$$pGLOBAL_SET 000940126 980__ $$aEBOOK 000940126 980__ $$aBIB 000940126 982__ $$aEbook 000940126 983__ $$aOnline 000940126 994__ $$a92$$bISE
