| Abstract: | This study brings about a reflection on death and dying, commented as if they had the same meaning. Nowadays, one talks about death as seldom as possible and, by its negation, there appeared the negation of diseases, thus causing the diseased people to become totally dependant on health teams. Technological and scientific advances led to postponing death, and it is possible to temporarily extend what humans decided to call life. This has become the great piece of criticism by scholars that seek to lead death again to its place by trying to bring it again into the center of reflections, analyses and discussions within the most diverse areas. |
