Winner of the Pulitzer Prize,
The Denial of Death
explores how people and cultures around the world have reacted to the concept of death from celebrated cultural anthropologist Ernest Becker.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1974 and the culmination of a life’s work,
is Ernest Becker’s brilliant and impassioned answer to the “why” of human existence. In bold contrast to the predominant Freudian school of thought, Becker tackles the problem of the vital lie—man’s refusal to acknowledge his own mortality. In doing so, he sheds new light on the nature of humanity and issues a call to life and its living that still resonates decades after its writing.
