Abstract
We are living in a cultural moment of low tolerance to frustration and limits. It is not surprising, therefore, that our culture shuns death with nuances that are unprecedented compared to other moments in history. Alarcos Martínez, Master in Bioethics, accepts this challenge and reflects on death in order to draw ethical consequences. If one legitimately aspires to the "intensity of life" as a moral criterion, the unalterable fact of death can help decisively in this regard. To this end, the author outlines five objectives that he will develop throughout this article: to reconstruct the "dwelling place" with meaning, to rethink life, to reanimate justice, to recover hope and, for believers, to resurrect.
