Death as a Value

Witold Tulibacki

Abstract

The text suggests, contrary to the conversations accepted by European tradition, that death can also be seen as a means of creating good which manifests itself, among other things, in granting new essence to human relations in a given community, creating the factors that cause human collective to integrate, in stimulating vitality in a wide context of the existence of the human kind, in establishing a kind of a ,,hideout” from the painful existence, in prompting positive moral attitudes.

Keywords:

axiology, death (mine, somebody else’s, suicidal), evil, finitism, tanatodycea, torment, nonentity, emptiness
