Is my death possible? (part II)

Abstract

Derrida examines the concept of death and of Dasein as analyzed by Heidegger in his his text Being and Time. In exploring the various constructions of death, he incorporates linguistical analyses as well as a comparison to other domains such as anthropology and history. He also argues that, although Heidegger denies the link, his analysis is not possible without a Judeo-Christian concept of death
