Abstract

What is Death? Or, I could ask about what do we feel when we think about it. Fear? Agony? Angst? Curiosity? Some kind of freedom? The hope to cross over into a world that our mind can’t even imagine? One of the Romanian philosophers that wrote about it with the intensity of a man tortured by it was Emil Cioran.
