Abstract

The author attempts to answer the question whether it is possible to think about death without fear. On the basis of poems by Wisawa Szymborska, Elbieta Skorupska-Raczyska and Karol Wojtyla, she concludes that the death of the closest people is accompanied by grief and longing and it can be consoled by faith in God. In overcoming the fear of ones own death a few things can be helpful, namely thinking about the inevitability of death, believing in life after death and leading a good life. Yet, mass death and the death of children cannot be tamed.
