Kagan thinks that death can be‚ and very often is‚ bad for the person who dies (and this is so because death deprives that person of the goods of life). However‚ Kagan denies that death is not bad. It is reasonable or appropriate for people to fear death. Kagan claims that only if people have three conditions

    This week we discussed the death of the author and looked at readings by Barthes and Moxey. While Barthes takes an extreme position‚ encouraging the abandonment of the author and discussing why the idea of the author should be abandoned‚ Moxey discusses the ways in which the death of the author effects art history. Both of the authors state that we are moving away from the humanist idea that we have a conscious mind‚ that there is a universal truth‚ and that there is a possibility of objective and
