Why Death Should Be a Topic for Education
Journal Title: Theology and Philosophy of Education - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Although the Covid-19 pandemic has reintroduced death and dying into awareness and debate, these topics remain in some sense taboo in society. From a philosophical perspective, however, death is closely related to the meaning of life and it is therefore unavoidable to reflect on it. The article attempts to show that reflections on death should be a part of education at different levels.
