This interdisciplinary collection explores the imagination of life's end, particularly in medical contexts, bridging perspectives from humanities and sciences. Focusing on how physicians and healthcare professionals perceive aging, dying, and mortality, the book delves into personal reflections, professional confrontations with death, and the broader cultural narratives surrounding these experiences. Contributions include analyses of literary texts, biographical accounts, and medical ethics discussions, offering insights into the societal and existential dimensions of death. The work is intended for scholars, healthcare practitioners, and individuals interested in medical humanities, ethics, and the intersection of medicine and culture. |
