LITERATURE TERM PAPER SOCRATES NO FEAR IN DEATH [Type the author name] 4/15/2014 Socrates did not choose to begin now at 70 years old and make choices which would have been contrary to who he was. He believed living long doesn’t matter‚ living well does. He lived a good‚ just‚ and ethical life and was poor because his life was spent on more noble things of the search of true wisdom‚ not of earthly self-pleasures of physical matters. He was the father of Philosophy and roamed the

The Fear Of Death" The title "On The Fear Of Death‚" caught my eye as I was skimming the text for a story. After some thought‚ I concluded that the word "death" means more to me than most of my peers. I grew up as the daughter of a hard working man‚ one with an uncommon occupation. My father is a mortician. "On The Fear Of Death" intrigued me because many adopt such a negative view of death. Kubler-Ross takes the concept of death and embraces it‚ perhaps allowing her to ease her own fear of mortality

are oppressed by the fear of death. In the young there is a justification for this feeling. Young men who have reason to fear that they will be killed in battle may justifiably feel bitter in the thought that they have been cheated of the best things that life has to offer. But in an old man who has known human joys and sorrows‚ and has achieved whatever work it was in him to do‚ the fear of death is somewhat abject and ignoble. The best way to overcome it – as at least it seems to me – is to make

Masks Down‚ Lights of‚ Fears Away! Sleep well… Every person has a fear to lose something or someone‚ a fear which brings them their catastrophe. Everyone knows that “death” is a natural thing‚ but the idea of “end” makes people deny the fact that death is natural and there is no reason to be afraid. So these who are afraid of death‚ suffer between the paws of the idea of losing and dies mentally while surrounded by the chains of their fear. Edgar Allan Poe tried to explain that situation
