AB - Paradoxically the extension of the human life span is raising social interest in issues related to death, such as death with dignity, euthanasia, and well-dying. In this article I emphasize that the concern for death should not be limited to the end of one’s life or the death of others, but rather to utilize inevitable death as a spiritual activity. First of all, this study has examined how humanity has perceived death through the ancient Greek philosophers Socrates, Epicurus and Plato, Augustine and Aquinas in medieval times, and Descartes and Schopenhauer. Then I examine the perception of death of Granville Stanley Hall and William James in the context of life–histories and a religious psychology based on empirical inquiry. Based on these discussions, I then examine Otto Rank on the death awareness of artistic souls and on immortality, and Robert Jay Lifton’s symbolization of immortality, which extended the study of death socially and culturally
