abstract="In this paper I explore just a few of the issues that are raised by what seem to be some rather serious shifts presently occurring in the modern order of death. My main focus is on the particular disturbances caused by the recently renewed demand for the legalisation of assisted suicide and euthanasia in much of the West; disturbances which I attempt to put into some kind of historical perspective. I argue that aspects of a new order of death are emerging around, and through, these debates: aspects that look back to the distant past as much as they look forward.
