In this novel, as in many others, Mantel deals with some of the topics she is more concerned with: religion, faith, displacement and identity; however, there is another protagonist in this novel apart from Anna and Ralph Eldred: loss. In this paper, it is shown how the Eldreds move from one loss to another and how, in a very autobiographical manner, Mantel deals with the loss of dreams, faith, children, or roots. Following different interpretations of psychoanalytic theory, this article explores the way the Eldreds deal with loss, the different processes of mourning they go through and their attempts to overcome the grief produced by the most important loss in their lives: their son.En "A change of climate", Hilary Mantel nos muestra la vida de la familia Eldred, tanto en Inglaterra como en África. En esta novela, como en muchas otras, Mantel trata algunos de los temas en los que más suele interesarse en su producción literaria: la religión, la fe, el desplazamiento y la identidad. Sin embargo, en la novela hay otra protagonista además de Anna y Ralph Eldred: la pérdida. En este artículo se muestra cómo la vida de los Eldred les lleva de una pérdida a otra y cómo, de manera muy autobiográfica, Mantel retrata la pérdida de los sueños, la fe, los hijos o las raíces. A través de distintas interpretaciones de la teoría del psicoanálisis, se muestra también el modo en que los Eldred se enfrentan al sentimiento de pérdida, los distintos procesos de duelo por los que pasan y sus intentos por sobreponerse al dolor que se produce por la pérdida más importante de sus vidas: su hijo.20172017-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501NAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10017/65280reponame:e_Buah Biblioteca Digital Universidad de Alcaláinstname:Universidad de Alcalá (UAH)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ebuah.uah.es:10017/652802026-06-18T11:13:07Z
