Stephen Cave: The 4 stories we tell ourselves about death (2013x236)

Ausstrahlung: Dez 12, 2013

Philosopher Stephen Cave begins with a dark but compelling question: When did you first realize you were going to die? And even more interesting: Why do we humans so often resist the inevitability of death? Cave explores four narratives — common across civilizations — that we tell ourselves "in order to help us manage the terror of death."
