I searched hard for Cicero's Hortensius after my God Mother died. She was much more of a mother to me than my mother ever was, and it shook me to the core.
I have had some luck in finding lost texts, but nothing came up, not even a single fragment that I could recognize as belonging to it.
In classical antiquity, it was the premier text on this subject. The loss of one's loved one, and the feeling of emptiness and despair. I spent a year lost.
I don't really have anwsers to these questions. There was a movie based on the philosopher Swedenborg's writings called "What Dreams May Come" that deal with this.
