صدر هذا الكتاب عام 1959، وفيه يتناول الدكتور مصطفى محمود قضية الموت ومفهومه الملغِز، انطلاقًا من الحياة وكيف تُشبِه عمليةَ شدٍّ وجذب بين الوجود والفناء، فالإنسان موجود على قيد الحياة، إلا أنه يموت كل لحظة عبر كُرَيَات الدم والخلايا التي تتجدد باستمرار. لذلك فالموت أشبه بالبُستاني الذي يقتلع النبات الذابل الفارغ من الحياة، حتى يُفسح المجال لرقيق البذور لكي تنمو وتكبر وتطرح الثمار. ويطرح الكتاب أسئلةً فلسفية حول كينونة الإنسان، وماهية الزمن، والحب، وغيرها من الأسئلة التي تتعلَّق بالوجود الإنساني.

NA SUÉCIA, existe uma antiga tradição chamada döstädning – dö significa "morte", städning, "limpeza". O sentido é bastante literal: limpar, remover, se desfazer ou desapegar de objetos que, mesmo adorados, com a nossa morte vão se transformar em um fardo para amigos e entes queridos. Essa tarefa de eliminar pertences em vida – descrita como revigorante pelos escandinavos e como inusitada por pessoas de outras culturas – pode ser realizada a qualquer momento, em qualquer idade, porém sempre o mais cedo possível, antes que outros tenham que fazer isso por nós.

Der Moment des Loslassens – Was passiert, wenn der Körper stirbt? Der Tod ist ein Moment, der für viele von uns mit Angst, Ungewissheit und Trauer behaftet ist. Vielleicht hast auch Du Dich schon gefragt, was genau in dem Moment geschieht, in dem der Körper stirbt. Was passiert mit der Seele? Wohin geht sie? Ist der Tod wirklich das Ende, oder nur der Übergang in eine andere Daseinsform?

"Look at the birds". Through the painful days of the pandemic stuck in her home, Courtney Ellis found herself looking down in despair. Soon after, her beloved grandfather died unexpectedly. It was around this same time that Ellis took up watching birds. "Took up" might not be exactly right—as she puts it, "the switch flipped," and she's been borderline obsessed with birds ever since. Looking Up is a meditation on birding as a practice of hope.

¿Cómo morir? La pregunta suena de mal agüero en nuestra frenética actualidad. Vivimos como si no fuéramos a morir. Y, sin embargo, hemos de afrontar el tema cuanto antes mejor, gracias a la ayuda de la filosofía. Frente al miedo a la muerte, el estoicismo nos propone una liberación: no miremos para otro lado. Séneca nos dice que para no temer a la muerte es necesario tenerla presente, que «se niega a vivir quien se niega a morir».

Una exploración profundamente convincente de la industria de la muerte, las personas que trabajan en ella y lo que les llevó allí. Estamos rodeados de muerte. Está en las noticias, en nuestras canciones infantiles, en nuestros podcasts de crímenes reales. Sin embargo, desde pequeños se nos dice que hay que temer a la muerte.

Over the past five years, medical aid-in-dying (also known as assisted suicide) has expanded rapidly in the United States and is now legally available to one in five Americans. This growing social and political movement heralds the possibility of a new era of choice in dying. Yet very little is publicly known about how medical aid-in-dying laws affect ordinary citizens once they are put into practice.
