The Philosophy of Death & Dying
with Dr. Namita Goswami

Cunningham Memorial Library Room 028

Dr. Namita Goswami, Indiana State University philosophy professor, leads an exploration of the profound questions surrounding mortality. This course examines the nature of death, the philosophical implications of dying, and whether death can ever be truly known or understood. Participants will consider distinctions between death as a state and dying as a process, while also reflecting on how biological, cultural, and social practices shape the experience of dying in the modern world. Through philosophical inquiry and critical discussion, Dr. Goswami explores how conceptions of mortality influence meaning, identity, and the human condition.
