PHL218: An Exploration of Death - 2024 Term 4
Not too long ago, sex used to be the great taboo, while death was freely referred to and discussed. More recently the situation has reversed with death becoming the new taboo, spoken about in hushed tones and surrounded with protective euphemisms. This series of three lectures will explore the phenomena of death both historically and from various thematic angles, in an attempt to elucidate and comment on the thing that we all have to confront and do once in our lives. • Please choose one of the payment options below. • Unwaged includes students, seniors retirees and unemployed. • All prices are in New Zealand dollars and GST inclusive.
