Jak umierają współcześni bohaterowie i co po nich zostaje?
Journal Title: Kultura Popularna - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 49
Abstract
Watching deaths belongs to natural human needs. Nowadays this need is fulfilled by popular culture. Here I am focusing on the last public statements by the late Polish VIPs and celebrities, recognized as the superstars of popular culture – Pope John Paul II, Zbigniew Religa, a prominent Polish cardiac surgeon and politician, Jan Kaczkowski, a Roman Catholic priest, and Maria Czubaszek, a writer and a journalist, and the best selling books seals with their names. My conclusions, in the context of Goeffrey Gorer’s essay, The Pornography of Death, put the new light on the issue of the death in popular culture.<br/><br/>
