Surviving death: on dealing with the incomprehensible With Wilhelm Schmid
One popular method of dealing with death is simply not to talk about it. But that doesn't help: for the time being, death remains the end of life for every human being. The only variables are the time and manner of death. It usually comes too soon and leaves great suffering in its wake. Can the drama be mitigated by accepting that death is not the end of all life? In Den Tod überleben, the philosopher Wilhelm Schmid ("Gelassenheit") once again takes a serious look at the question that has preoccupied people since time immemorial: Where do they go when they leave us?
Is there really life after death? Can the possibility alone be a consolation? "Schmid not only has the gift of putting great meaning into small sentences. Schmid also has wit. (...) His subject is serious, but his tone is almost cheerful, relaxed." (Spiegel)
