Some aspects of death in Plato’s and Aristotle’s philosophic thought
Klaudija Vučetić
Sažetak
In the article death and dying are not observed as simple biological facts, but as the authentic philosophical problems, fundamentally ethical and ontological. The philosophic thought of Plato and Arostotle was not directed toward the biological question of death, but it was all engaged with the mode of research of that what is called the state of death. The biology understands death in the coordinates of determining no-life or in the establishment of criteria of the death of the organism, as well as the research of the process of getting old of the organism. The philosophical approach to the problem of death presumes two mentioned biological components, in order to reveal, in the reflection of the state of death, as hermeneutic position, many questions and offer principles for different moral controversies connected with these problems.
