Welcome to Middle Age!: (And Other Cultural Fictions) Paperback - 1998
by Richard A. Shweder (Editor)
Many of us believe we recognize the symptoms of middle age--lower back pain, mortgages, and an aversion to loud late-night activities. WELCOME TO MIDDLE AGE! explores the significance of this pervasive cultural representation alongside the alternative "fictions" that represent the life course in other regions of the world where middle age does not exist. Illustrated.
First line
Looking over the vast explosion of midlife discourse, both popular and scholarly, that has become such a feature of seventies', eighties', and nineties' common sense in the United States, a cultural inquirer cannot help but observe that the boom has created as well as targeted an audience for the messages.
