«Qu'est-ce que la mort ?» is the philosophical essay by Roland Quilliot, published by Armand Colin in paperback (256 pages, in French).
It first reviews the objective facts about death (biological, historical, sociological) and then examines how religions, philosophers and literary works have given meaning to mortality. Ranging from Homer to Woody Allen, it asks whether it is possible to be happy knowing one dies and whether modernity has trivialised death.
Originally published in 2000 in the U Philosophie collection; the book falls within the fields of philosophy and spirituality.
Recommended for readers with an interest in philosophy, religion and existential questions about mortality.
