The Question of Death in the Philosophy of Luc Ferry

Abstract

This study aims to address one of the most complex philosophical issues discussed in philosophy in general, and in the philosophy of Luc Ferry in particular. The latter introduced a new philosophical conception — metaphysical in its essence, spiritual and humanistic in its dimensions — founded on the principle of love as a metaphysical principle that transcends the individual and the personal toward the universal and global. In doing so, it can serve as the optimal solution to the problem of death.
