ALDANA-PINEROS, Alexander  e  GARZON-PASCAGAZA, Edgar-Javier. The sentiment of death as an existential limit in the work of E.M. Cioran. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2017, vol.66, n.163, pp.311-331. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v66n163.58660.

The article addresses the thought of E.M. Cioran from the perspective of that vital uneasiness known as the sentiment of death. Although the term appears only in his first book, the idea cuts across his entire work given that, for Cioran, human beings intuit themselves as possessed by death at every moment of their lives. When persons are faced with a meaningless reality, dominated by radical and limiting circumstances such as pain and agony, the whole tenor of life changes until it becomes a tragic intuition of life.

Palavras-chave : E.M. Cioran; agony; death; life.
