🎓 CONFERENCE: DEATH COMES BY ITSELF | GALIMBERTI EXPLAINS
Why do we spend our lives preparing for everything except death?
We prepare our careers, jobs, retirement, travel, investments, even leisure time. Yet the only absolute certainty of existence is systematically removed from our horizon.
Death comes by itself.
It doesn't need to be invited. It doesn't need to be sought. It doesn't need our cooperation.
In this conference, Umberto Galimberti addresses one of the greatest paradoxes of contemporary man: the obsession with controlling every aspect of life and the impossibility of controlling its final outcome.
The entire technological civilization is built on the idea of domination. Domination of nature, domination of time, domination of the body, domination of disease. But there is a boundary beyond which domination ends.
Death cannot be negotiated.
This is why modern society prefers not to look at it. It hides it in hospitals, turns it into a statistic, removes it from everyday language, and celebrates an infinite youth that exists only in advertising.
But the more death is repressed, the greater the anguish grows.
For Heidegger, man is the being who knows he must die. It is precisely this awareness that makes an authentic life possible. Not because death gives meaning to life, but because it tears man from the illusion of being eternal.
Galimberti shows how much of our anxiety arises from the attempt to forget what we already know. Every living being fights to survive. Only man knows that, despite every struggle, the day will come when he must leave the world.
The question then changes completely.
It's not about conquering death.
It's not about defeating it.
It's not even about preparing for it.
Death comes on its own.
The real question is another: what do we do with the time that precedes it?
A reflection dedicated to those who wish to look without illusions at the most radical limit of the human condition and understand why the awareness of death continues to be the great driving force of philosophy.
