Nota di contenuto |
|
Transcribing the mystery : following the sacred path of final words -- No words for it : language changes as we approach the threshold -- Metaphors of the momentous : before we die, we announce a big event -- I leave you with these words : travel metaphors speak of a coming voyage -- Repetition, repetition, repetition : intensified language in our last days -- Nonsense or a new sense? : unintelligible language at end of life -- Words between the worlds : visions and visitations before dying -- Lullabies & goodbyes : is our first and final language unspoken? -- I'll call you when i get there : after-death communication. |
