| Summary | "Kuolema" by Maurice Maeterlinck is a philosophical treatise written in the late 19th century. The work explores the profound and often misunderstood relationship humans have with death, intertwining reflections on existence, consciousness, and the nature of mortality. It aims to illuminate the often fearful perception of death, advocating for a more accepting and profound understanding of its role in life. The opening of the text delves into the essence of death and its significance in human life, suggesting that rather than fearing death, one should learn from it to enrich understanding of living. Maeterlinck discusses the false relationships and misconceptions surrounding death, arguing that our fears stem from ignorance and avoidance. As he grapples with complex philosophical questions, he invites readers to confront their views on mortality and encourages a mindset that embraces the inevitability of death with curiosity rather than dread.
