Resumo: | The present research aims to promote the dialogue between the thought of death and the acceptance of human finitude, not in a pessimistic way, but yearning a positive view of aging and senescence. The human being, globally and individually, seeks an authentic existence through his/her understanding of the significations attributed to his/her perishability. Even when a person cultivates spiritual values, concepts such as the immortality of the soul paradoxically does not exclude the fear from death. |

A partir do entendimento dos significados atribuídos à sua perecibilidade, o homem, em sua condição universal e singular, busca uma existência autêntica. Mesmo quando a pessoa cultiva valores espirituais, conceitos tais como a imortalidade da alma, não afastam o medo da morte.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-10-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/1510210.23925/2176-901X.2012v15iEspecial12p273-294Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 15 (2012): Número Especial 12 - Finitude/Morte e Velhice; 273-2942176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/15102/12637Silva, Alba Sandra Alencar dainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:32:14Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/15102Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:32:14Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |
