But what am I to makeof that fact? Thiscourse will examine a number of issues that ariseonce we begin toreflect on our mortality. The possibility that deathmay not actuallybe the end is considered. Are we, in some sense,immortal? Wouldimmortality be desirable? Also a clearer notion of whatit is to die isexamined. What does it mean to say that a person hasdied? What kind offact is that? And, finally, different attitudes todeath are evaluated.Is death an evil? How? Why? Is suicide morallypermissible? Is itrational? How should the knowledge that I am going todie affect theway I live my life?
