Experiences of Dying and Death
- First published:
- 21st century
This chapter looks more closely to the truth claims and verification strategies of near-death reports, discussing, among others, views by Carol Zaleski and Michael N. Marsh. The example of a reported near-death experience by John G. Bennett is taken as an example of how experiencers claim that they had been dead while having the respective experiences. In contrast, for the aim of the study, death is defined as the irreversible end of dying. As can be seen in Bennett’s portrayal, a positive answer on “what it is like to be dead” rests heavily on how “death” gets defined, usually blurring the distinction of death versus deprived states close to death.
