Omschrijving
This book explores the moral place of the dead in our lives and in our afterlives. It argues that our lives are saturated by the past intentions and values of the dead, and that we offer the dead a form of modest immortality by fulfilling our obligations to remember them.
"Wisnewski does a remarkable job of addressing a number of central issues in the philosophy of death in the course of presenting a clever, creative, and cross-traditional argument for a modest form of immortality. This book is an invaluable addition to the literature on this topic."
Adam Buben, Leiden University, The Netherlands
