  • Chapter 8. Aesthetic, Cultural, Religious and Spiritual Ecosystem Services Derived from the Marine Environment Contributor: Alan
    Chapter 8. Aesthetic, Cultural, Religious and Spiritual Ecosystem Services Derived from the Marine Environment Contributor: Alan Simcock (Lead Member) 1. Introduction At least since the ancestors of the Australian aboriginal people crossed what are now the Timor and Arafura Seas to reach Australia about 40,000 years ago (Lourandos, 1997), the ocean has been part of the development of human society. It is not surprising that human interaction with the ocean over this long period profoundly influenced the development of culture. Within “culture” it is convenient to include the other elements – aesthetic, religious and spiritual – that are regarded as aspects of the non-physical ecosystem services that humans derive from the environment around them. This is not to decry the difference between all these aspects, but rather to define a convenient umbrella term to encompass them all. On this basis, this chapter looks at the present-day implications of the interactions between human culture and the ocean under the headings of cultural products, cultural practices and cultural influences. 2. Cultural products No clear-cut distinction exists between objects which have a utilitarian value (because they are put to a use) and objects which have a cultural value (because they are seen as beautiful or sacred or prized for some other non-utilitarian reason). The two categories can easily overlap. Furthermore, the value assigned to an object may change: something produced primarily for the use to which it can be put may become prized, either by the society that produces it or by some other society, for other reasons (Hawkes, 1955).

In modern Britain, it is perhaps more of an emotional impulse. But whatever the motive, burial at sea carries on, just as it has done for hundreds of years. Since 2001, 140 people have been laid to rest in the seas off the British coast, many of them former sailors from the Royal Navy or the Merchant Marine, although the numbers appear to be diminishing. In 2002 there were 21 sea burials: last year there were only four, perhaps because the old servicemen who served in Second World War convoys, or have similar powerful attachments to the waves, have mostly passed on.

  • The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Memorial Guide Book
    The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Memorial Guide Book 1 September 2006 Past Captains Association There comes a time during a career in the Coast Guard Auxiliary when a member must take part in a memorial service for an Auxiliarist. Many times, when it happens, it’s totally unexpected. Death is an awkward subject. It is a language none of us feels fluent in, no matter how much experience we’ve had. We reach for words and hope they’re the right ones. What matters though is the effort. The funeral memorial service provides an opportunity for Auxiliary friends and family to gather in mutual sorrow to observe the passing of a member who has been important in their lives. It may be held in a church, temple, funeral home or other venue such as a memorial service meaningful to the decedent. When we join together to show respect for departed friends of the Coast Guard Auxiliary, we use our freedom of religion. Though we, in the Auxiliary, may worship in many different ways, as long as we seek solace in a faith, we honor that departed member. While we may weep for our departed friends and comrades, we will celebrate the life of that friend. The passages chosen in this Updated Memorial Guide should help you better understand the various customs and traditions of funerals that you may be participating in and how to reflect that celebration of life. The Past Captain's Association felt this Updated Memorial Guidebook will prove useful when an auxiliarist’s death occurs. This Edition supercedes the earlier one, dated 1 October 1997.

The commanding officer of the ship assigned to perform the ceremony will notify the family of the date, time, and longitude and latitude once the committal service has been completed. Eligibility: Individuals eligible for this program are: (1) active duty members of the uniformed services; (2) retirees and veterans who were honorably discharged. (3) U.S. civilian marine personnel of the Military Sealift Command; and (4) dependent family members of active duty personnel, retirees, and veterans of the uniformed services. How to get started: After the death of the individual for whom the request for Burial at Sea is being made, the Person Authorized to Direct Disposition (PADD) should contact the Navy and Marine Corps Mortuary Affairs office at 1-866-787-0081 to request a packet and for additional information. Supporting documents which must accompany this request are: (1) a photocopy of the death certificate (2) the burial transit permit or the cremation certificate (3) a copy of the DD Form 214, discharge certificate, or retirement order.

  • Types of Alternative Funeral Services
    Ecological funeral An ecological funeral, also known as promession, is a method for allowing the body of the deceased to decompose in an environmentally-friendly way. It was invented and patented in 1999 by the Swedish biologist Susanne Wiigh-Mäsak. The following three steps characterize the method: 1. Reducing the body of the deceased to a fine powder, thereby allowing later decomposition to be aerobic. This is achieved by submerging the body in liquid nitrogen, which makes the remains so brittle that it shatters as the result of a slight vibration. The remains are then dried, reducing them to around 30% of the original body weight. 2. Removal and recycling of metals. 3. Depositing the powder shallowly in a biodegradable casket. The first facility for ecological funerals, known as a promatorium, should be ready in 2007 in a pilot installation in Stockholm, Sweden. The volume of remains left by this procedure is about three times that left by a cremation, but the claimed advantages include the avoidance of the release of pollutants into the atmosphere, such as mercury vapour from dental fillings, and the rapid degradation of the remains after the procedure (6-12 months). The procedure was developed in response to new European Union pollution laws. Burial at Sea Burial at sea describes the procedure of disposing of human remains in the ocean. Two reasons for burial at sea are if the deceased died while at sea and it is impractical to return the remains to shore, or if the deceased died on land but a burial at sea is requested for private or cultural reasons.

Crisman Nautical archaeology has made remarkable advances since its inception half a century ago, but one area in need of more attention is the examination of cultural aspects of seafaring. This dissertation advances understanding of eighteenth- through early-twentieth century British and American maritime culture by exploring traditional memorialization practices. Interpretations are based primarily on analysis of 412 maritime memorials recorded during two archaeological surveys in Great Britain and the United States. In addition, primary accounts from the Age of Sail are utilized to place maritime memorialization into its proper cultural and historical context.

  • Guidelines for Catholic Funeral Rites
    LITURGY – 8 10/21/04 Diocese of San Diego Office for Liturgy and Spirituality GUIDELINES FOR CATHOLIC FUNERAL RITES INTRODUCTION The Catholic Funeral Rites in the Order of Christian Funerals (1989) are celebrations that enable the Christian community to mourn as well as to hope by focusing on the mystery of the death and resurrection of Christ. These guidelines are offered to assist pastors and their pastoral staffs in effectively preparing the funeral rites with individuals and families. The Order of Christian Funerals is the only canonically approved liturgical rite in English. Liturgical books in other languages must be approved by their proper Episcopal Conferences. Ministers serving in communities with diverse languages should take care that they are using the current approved translation of the Latin, Ordo Exsequiarium. ENTITLEMENT TO THE MINISTRY OF THE CHURCH AT THE TIME OF DEATH Every Catholic, unless specifically excluded by the norms of law, is entitled to the Church’s ministry at the time of death. 1. In coordination with the pastoral staff, the family of the deceased and the funeral director chosen by the family arrange the place and set the time for the Vigil, the Funeral Mass and the Rite of Committal. 2. The Funeral Mass is ordinarily the central element of Catholic funerals in the Diocese of San Diego. The Funeral Mass is a prayer for God’s mercy for the deceased and a solace for the living, including the entire faith community. 3. Catechumens may be given Catholic Funeral Rites. 4. Catholic Funeral Rites, including the Funeral Mass, are permitted for a deceased baptized non-Catholic who might reasonably be presumed to desire or prefer the Catholic rite.
