%X This paper deals with Max Scheler’s interpretation of the phenomenon of death as expounded in his posthumous writing Death and After-Life (1911-1916). Its first aim is to highlight the strength of Scheler’s view by focusing on its systematic bonds to other aspects of his philosophy, such as his depiction of body-consciousness or his theory of vital feelings. The second aim is to defend Scheler’s theory of death against two objections: the first concerns his view on the origin of man’s certainty that he will die; the second accuses him of having naturalized the phenomenon of death. In discussing the latter objection, close attention is paid to Paul Ludwig Landsberg’s alternative view of death.
