Is Lucretius right to insist that it is irrational to fear death?
It is my thesis that Lucretius is wrong in his insistence that the fear of death is irrational. In his symmetrical belief that we should be as indifferent to the time of our death as we are to the time of our birth he does not have to defend against any accusations that are not born of arguments relating to the self; namely those arguments that attempt to undermine Lucretius’ argument by way of denying the validity of some common epicurean beliefs surrounding this fear of death.
