Abstract

Examines the lore of death and whatever happens afterward. This work looks at places where people are buried, either permanently or temporarily. It also explores some of the stranger stories about what happens after we're gone, and offers some philosophical musings about death in general, as well as our connection to those who have gone before.

Abstract

Analyzes dying and death in the cosmopolitan setting. While providing a portrait of dying, this book also tells us a great deal about life. It demonstrates that the foundation for the medicalization of death that shapes the life experience of dying persons and loved ones is a product of the ways of life in the broader culture. The explicit purpose of this book is to analyze dying and death in the cosmopolitan, modern setting. There is, however, an additional theme that is implicit in the analysis and observations. The portrait of dying, which is provided in the pages of the book, also tells us a great deal about life. It demonstrates that the foundation for the medicalization of death that piercingly shapes the life experience of dying persons and loved ones is a product of the ways of life in the broader culture.

Abstract

Louis-Vincent Thomas débute sa carrière sur le continent africain et y étudie tour à tour les systèmes de pensée, les représentations, la notion de personnalité, les idéologies, les mythes, les rites et les symboles. Une idée-force résulte de ces premiers travaux : " La mort n'est pas le contraire de la vie mais peut-être sa condition fondamentale. " (Thomas, 1993) Dès lors, la question de la finitude devient le coeur de ses recherches, mêlant diverses disciplines, approches et thématiques. Et c'est ainsi que l'initiateur de la thanatologie, voyageant dans les chemins de l'imaginaire, de la science-fiction, des obsessions, du quotidien, des corps et des mythologies, a tissé une science et un art de la mort dans la vie. Plus de vingt ans après sa disparition, nous proposons d'effectuer un retour sur l'oeuvre féconde de ce penseur pluriel et insaisissable. Hommage visant à percevoir les résonances de son héritage et les empreintes de sa personnalité, de son itinéraire et de ses recherches.
