The concept of a good death is an important issue that ethics should focus on.With the rise of individualism,medical practices have undergone subtle changes,and Western bioethics has begun to consider,from a subjective perspective,which normative conditions constitute a good death.In contrast,the traditional Confucian view of shanzhong善终(good ending)emphasizes the unity of life and death and the transcendence of death from an objective perspective,regarding the moral value of living a good life as the moral requirement for judging a good death.By fully acknowledging the historical changes in the concept of death,we can facilitate a dialogue between these two perspectives,enriching each other and helping modern individuals attain a more comprehensive and morally desirable understanding of death.
