Meeting in Children's Literature Concerning Death – Finding Connections with Andrzej Nowicki’s Incontrology. With the Example of the Relationship with the Oldest Generation

Résumé

Philosophy in literature may also be found in children’s books, especially those concerning such serious subjects as death. The authors of these books often introduce the philosophy of life and the meaning of death by showing them through the prism of a meeting of a child and an elderly person. What results from these meetings and what other qualities, apart from the context of familiarizing with death, can be found in these literary meetings? The reference point in the paper is Andrzej Nowicki’s philosophy of a meeting, i.e. incontrology.
