  • Author: Kuhnle (Till R.)
  • Abstract: In his study on philosophical thanatology, Todesmetaphren, T. H. Macho analyses what he calls the “paradox of the corps”. When we have a look on corpse of a beloved person, we are frightened because we consider the “object” still as that person. We are witnesses of a fundamental ontological change: the existential-ontological structure of the Dasein (being there/presence) turns into an object. The Leichenparadox was fascinating writers and philosophers. .
