Passing and death in some European philosophical concepts
Irena Kurzępa
Abstract
The aim of this article is to present the concepts of passing and death in view of certain European philosophical notions. People have been interested in the phenomena of life and death throughout human history. Philosophical reflection regarding these issues evolved in two directions. On the one hand, it made attempts to extirpate the fear of death; and on the other hand, it endeavoured to find a knowledgeable way of explaining the fact of passing away. Nowadays, the problem of passing and death is present in researches in numerous branches. As regards philosophy, studies on cognition and transcendental consciousness are carried on. Moreover, ethics and bioethics are developed.
