“…Seria possível, nesse caso, fazer analogias entre a retomada do tema da morte nos últimos escritos de Paul Ricoeur, marcada por sua valorização do imaginário e dos sentidos coletivos dados à perda do outro, com as críticas de Catroga a qualquer pressuposição de inautenticidade dos ritos coletivos que, em sua devida historicidade, configuram práticas de tradução da experiência do luto (RICOEUR, 2012, p. 1-51;CRÉPON, 2013). É interessante notar, no caso do filósofo francês, que mais de um autor já identificou no tema da luta contra certo imaginário da morte o fundamento central de La mémoire, l' histoire, l'oubli, que retomava de escritos anteriores um diálogo crítico com a tendência supostamente solipsista presente na ontologia fundamental heideggeriana (WORMS, 2013; CRÈPON, 2013, p. 88) 24 .…”

Partindo da existência de diferentes tradições teóricas de estudo das formas de lidar com a morte, este artigo analisa as reflexões produzidas pelo historiador português Fernando Catroga, indicando como o tema ganha relevância para a teoria da história por suas interrogações sobre as relações entre os ritos mortuários e a historiografia. Destaca-se, principalmente, o diálogo com tradições determinadas no campo da sociologia e da antropologia, que permitem retomar questionamentos filosóficos mais profundos sobre os temas da morte e da historicidade numa perspectiva atenta às especificidades do olhar histórico e sua vinculação com uma forma de refletir sobre as próprias experiências considerando as respostas fornecidas a problemas de natureza existencial humana pelos homens de outras épocas ou culturas. Nessa perspectiva, além da historicidade, o problema da alteridade ganha relevância central para a historiografia, entendida como uma entre outras práticas coletivas de ritualização do tempo, caracterizada pela especificidade de sua vocação crítica.

“…( [19], p. 295) 7 . In other words, authentic existence is fully living in the anticipation of life's end ( [19], p. 286) 8 . Therefore, anxiety is unavoidable and yet also not to be resisted, for it is the natural response to a basic acknowledgement of the two overriding pressures on our existence, namely the fact that we find ourselves thrown into this life (both in time and place) and that our existence is thus directed toward its end.…”

“…Quite simply, Amour invites us to recover an authentic experience with the thought of death, a topic over which the figure of Martin Heidegger looms large (Cf. [7] or [8]). In a fashion truly reminiscent of Heidegger's appeal to authenticity in the face of death, Haneke forces his audience to face death in newly constrained and concentrated ways.…”

“…Precision is gained by distinguishing this from pure disappearance, and also from merely perishing, and finally from the 'experiencing' of a demise." 8 Heidegger outlines three concrete realities of death that constitute Dasein: each person must own their death, death is an indefinite certainty for us all, and nothing supersedes the significance or priority of death for us. 9 For the fuller context, consider how Heidegger closes his section on 'being-towards-death': "In anticipating [zum] the indefinite certainty of death, Dasein opens itself to a constant threat arising out of its own 'there.'…”

Losing Touch: A Theology of Death for Michael Haneke’s Amour

This proposed theology of death for Michael Haneke's Amour, a fraught but poignant piece of cinema, will employ Martin Heidegger's existentialism to reframe the ethical structure of the film and apply a "lived theology" rejoinder to its perceived hopelessness. The proposal will address the question of ethics in relation to Haneke's cinema, in particular his seemingly nihilistic perspective and confrontational style. To do so, it will revisit the film itself and examine the ways that Georges and Anne's love is tested. Principally, we examine the film's great question, which-in the filmmaker's own words-is: "How do I cope with the suffering of a loved one?" With aid from the theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, this 'lived theology' proposal will attempt to give an account of love's irrepressible strength in the midst of even astounding suffering. While Heidegger's ethic of resoluteness calls for interiority and solitude, Bonhoeffer's account of death more satisfactorily invokes a transcendent summons contained within our own pledges to loved ones. Such a theological reading of Haneke's Amour will draw two distinct conclusions: first, the film exposes the superficiality of any hoped-for solitude or escape from a loved one's death, and secondly, it demonstrates that the mutuality of authentic love entails impossible sacrifices.
