Death

ölmedim, bir gençlik ölümü saklı kaldı bende.

— İsmet Özel

The Map

# Continent Where the limit falls — the core question
1 Religion Beyond the limit: an end, or a door? What remains?
2 Philosophy The meaning of the limit: does being mortal give life meaning, or void it?
3 Psychology / Psychiatry The echo of the limit: how does a person carry their own non-being? (grief)
4 Medicine / Biology The physics of the limit: what is dying, and when? Why do we age?
5 Sociology / Anthropology The limit made social: how does a community tame death?
6 Art / Literature The language of the limit: can death be put into words? Resistance, or peace?
7 Law / Politics The power over the limit: who dies, who kills, who decides?

The map is drawn; we set out from Religion. The axes will open one by one — to be continued.
