Kaum etwas scheint so fruchtbar für das Leben, wie die Beschäftigung mit dem Tod. "Wer an den Tod denkt, fängt an zu leben", so ein altes Sprichwort. Haben wir mit der Verdrängung des Todes (in der aufgeklärten Moderne) auch allen Sinn und die Möglichkeit der Glückseligkeit verloren? Dieses Hörbuch stellt einige Fragen, zeigt aber mit einer kommentierten Auswahl der bedeutendsten Texte zu Sterben und Tod u.a. von Platon, Epikur, Nietzsche und Kierkegaard, Kafka, Rilke und Hölderlin - auch die Möglichkeit auf, sich fühlbar mit dem Tod ins Einvernehmen und Vertrauen zu setzen.

An old man lies dying. Confined to bed in his living room, he sees the walls around him begin to collapse, the windows come loose from their sashes, and the ceiling plaster fall off in great chunks, showering him with a lifetime of debris: newspaper clippings, old photographs, wool jackets, rusty tools, and the mangled brass works of antique clocks. Soon, the clouds from the sky above plummet down on top of him, followed by the stars, till the black night covers him like a shroud. He is hallucinating.

Der Tod eines geliebten Menschen ist eine der tiefsten und transformierendsten Erfahrungen, die wir im Leben machen können. Es ist der Moment, in dem wir uns mit unserer eigenen Vergänglichkeit und der Bedeutung des Abschieds auseinandersetzen müssen.
