The critique entitled "De la mort baroque a la mort classique" studies three authors and two ways to look at death. Montaigne, in a humanist perspective, focuses on what precedes death. Life is what matters. Death, within the baroque space, invites a celebration of life. Bossuet and Pascal, in a classical religious perspective, concentrate on what follows death. Eternal life is their main preoccupation at the expense of life on earth. Within the classical space, death is celebrated as the door to eternity. / The fiction entitled "Oraison funebre" tells the story of a death and the questioning it evokes. Woven into it is the story of the "little" deaths that take place in the course of a life.

<p>&quot / Cause of death certification continues to be a useful tool in obtaining demographic, epidemiological and legal information. However errors in death certification are widespread and range from incomplete certificates to inaccurate causes and manners of death. The accuracy of the immediate and underlying causes of death listed on the death certificate depends to a large extent on the doctor and his or her understanding of the guidelines for reporting immediate and underlying causes of death.

This essay focuses on the theme of the American Dream in relation to narcissism in Miller’s Death of a salesman. The purpose is to demonstrate that a close reading of the main protagonist, Willy Loman, suggests that his notion of success in relation to the American Dream can be regarded as narcissistic.  This essay will examine this by first observing how Willy´s notion of success is represented in the play, then look at how his understanding of it can be viewed from a narcissistic standpoint.  The results I have found in my analysis show that there is a connection between Willy’s understanding of success and his narcissistic behavior. He displays traits such as grandiosity, arrogance, need of specialness and denial of emotions. His relationship with other characters reveals his lack of empathy, manipulation and exploitation of others as well as his need of superiority and fear of inferiority.  The conclusion is that Willy and his notion of success could be considered as narcissistic.
